sadly I think reddit will stay around for a long time. The dumb masses are all on the internet now and reddit is like the new "news". They are just fed what they want and there is no real discussion. that's what the dumbed down poisoned food masses on anti depressants and anxiety pills love. It's a well oiled propaganda machine that seems no chance of stopping unless the internet itself is completely changed. Lets be real, if a site like sadit ever got to be any real competition to reddit, the powers that be of conde nast dav would shut this down in a heart beat.

It's not about toppling them, as the end of reddit is guaranteed already. Its about having open platforms where we can argue about things most of us arent experts in without being censored for given opinions. Without that, reddit has happily and enthusiastically jumped off a cliff headed for the rocks below.
