WARNING: HIGHLY NSFW LANGUAGE WITHIN SAID LINK, ANY REFERENCES WITHIN THIS THREAD HAVE BEEN CENSORED
The link is from a /r/circlebroke thread, expressing disgust at how much Reddit Gold has actually been rewarded to blatantly racist comments on a /r/videos thread showing a video of a black man violently punching a female shop assistant in the face then robbing a Boost Mobile store.
For those unaware, Gilding a comment is awarding the poster with a month of Reddit Gold (or the premium subscription service that the site currently operates under) which can be gifted to other users.
One comment, simplying saying "F*****g n****r" has been awarded 13 months of Reddit Gold by other users.
Several comments suggest this being the result of a 4chan /pol/ raid on reddit but no conclusive evidence has been shown as of yet.
Refugee from reddit here. I've almost had it with that community. The racism is becoming unbearable, and reddit accepting money from the racists in the form of gold is almost the last straw. It feels like their window is shrinking before a mass exodus happens, and they become the next digg.
