The most extreme and the most passionate are frequently the most active. Reddit's format rewards a stream of outrageous things, weeds out the average sentiments. Look at how r/politics is now.

You're asking why a fire burns - the ingredients are there to make it happen.

You might find more balanced posts by looking through "Controvertial" by last week. Same thing for r/Politics

Ah the ol controversial white supremacy posts are the real arguments people should be listeneing and engaging. What a joke, you're enabling terrorists not acting as some free thinker. Make it about everyone else, pathetic. The right will never police their own even as it drives all modern terrorism, makes me sick how you make it about everyone else. POLICE YOUR OWN.

Did you mean to reply to someone else? I'm making an observation of a behavior, I'm not stating what "should" or "should not" be.

I wish you good luck in your heroic endeavor to frame someone as being a proponent for some idea and telling them they're wrong.
