    Reddit really seems like a dead-man-walking company. There are too many problems with it - socially, organizationally, and culturally. In the company, but especially on the platfor…

    There's a difference between teaching about Jim Crow laws - which we absolutely should - and teaching ideological notions that cast white people as categorical racists and black pe…
