A colleague at work (27m) of 1 year refuses to socialise with me (24f) or any of the women in our office. [Should we go to HR about this?]

Another controversial post written by a wink wink real person. Shit like this get posted all of the time in attempts to keep the site 'relevant' and popular. It's the exact same thing as those whacky assed headlines we used to see on the tabloids: Elvis has 2-headed love child with Prince Charles.

People are literally paid to write this shit. And that doesn't even touch on influence by foreign and domestic governments' agencies.

sounds interesting and believable. Genuine question tho, any evidence?

If you go poking around you'll find the claim made quite often, but no there's no hard evidence at least that I've heard. And some of the claims are borderline nutjob stuff so that doesn't help. But as someone who watched Reddit from the beginning I can attest to the sudden decline in quality of posts that took place at the same time the site became essentially a mouth piece for various special interests. And I'm not the only one who noticed, not by a long shot. Anyone who thinks Conde-Naste bought the place so that they could continue the proud tradition of free and open discourse... well let's just say that I have a bridge to sell.
