Reddit is sifting through shit for gold. The gold is there, but your hands are going to get dirty.
I read to find humor or amusement, or I dig through the comments to try to find interesting differing opinions but take everything with a grain of salt.
Even when you figure out how to separate the shit from the gold it's sometimes its still hard to tell. Sometimes you think you taste gold but really you're eating shit for ten minutes and then you see a comment is buried near the bottom that debunks everything you just read.
I'm sure it's a heavenly place for people who believe whatever they read and have not learned critical thinking. Never use it as a primary source of knowledge and keep in mind a lot of people game it's karma system, anonymity, and ease of creating multiple accounts. Some don't just do it for karmawhoring, but have an agenda.
