"encouraging behaviors that lead to hate."

What's this guy on? Redditors aren't goddamn five year olds you can entice with candy. The people visiting those subreddits are already racist. You don't click /r/coontown and suddenly become overwhelmed with hatred for black people.

Seriously, this is some Reefer Madness-level stupidity.
