I went straight to HN for commentary because I know exactly what is happening on Reddit and for the first time can't bear to look.

You can disregard most of it though, between bots, edgy 14 years old and foreign agitators you can probably remove 75% of these inflammatory comments.

People should never go on these platforms (twitter, reddit, &c.), it's full or radicalised deranged terminally online people discussing their radical political ideas 24 hours a day to the point of being completely disassociated from reality. Go to a local café, pub or other public place, talk to people, the extreme vast majority of them are still sensible and capable of discussing hot topics.

Going to reddit to get political opinions is like going to a circus to get medical assistance

I feel similarly. Too many people are delighted by this horrible event. They think that they are fighting some boogeyman but instead it’s just someone with a different opinion.

The site administrators are trying to supress posts related to it because they can't moderate fast enough.

Same. I went to this thread and saw similar talking points brought up. Dangerous time for the US ahead.

Check out bluesky. Just a website filled to the brim with terrible, ugly, inside and out, "people".
