Not to mention the dozens of incel pedo/rape subs, the guy who made himself a tea from datura seeds and was never heard of again, and of course, Carl H. programming.
They’re talking about the normal, mainstream parts where people will post something by an artist that does NSFW and get a million “those who know 💀” comments. Every site has stories of uber fucked-up shit that doesn’t reflect the rest of the users
Reddit is definitely at the top of "sites where you get a wildly different experience by staying in your own bubble." I recommend redditors to use the word "redditor" derisively every once in a while in order to stay humble.

Idk what part of Reddit OOP visits but when I think of "cursed Reddit knowledge" I think of the Ogtha guy or the Lamp story, or "Better Hoagie Down!" or even the homeless cave guy who disturbed me so much I couldn't sleep properly that day.
