You must be fun at parties. Reddit is famously riddled with denigrating content of intrinsic human differences: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controversial_Reddit_communiti...

“You must be fun at parties”, “awwwkard”, “okaaaaay”, “tell us what you really think”…
It’s just a way to dismiss a point.
Reddit has controversial subreddits, the vast majority of which were closed down. That’s neither here nor there.
I’m not looking for a pleasant subreddit for racists. I’m looking for a subreddit for my local hometown where the default assumption isn’t that it’s populated by racists.
I’m looking for a subreddit for posting Star Trek memes where the default assumption is that I’m not interested in depriving trans people of their right to exist.
The problem with Reddit and its mods is that the defaults are way out of wack. It’s always war-time and anybody who isn’t quoting from the latest propaganda film is a commie-nazi.

FYI,this can come across as an ad hominem attack.
