Reddit has entertained an untenable combination of goals. They cannot have commercial success, and host communities focused upon the disparaging of others.

Like Twitter, they long argued that they were only a platform, but the world simply doesn't view Reddit that way.

Now that they are seeking commercial success, they must fit the perception of a place. A safe, commercially viable place.
