    I say reddit barely edges out youtube. Youtube comments suck, but the class character of youtube seems to vary more than reddit (literally, "it seems like there are more poor and non-white people on youtube than reddit"). Also people generally don't respect youtube comments or treat them as worthwhile, whereas reddit comments are "discourse."

      I have really been noticing that there is absolutely nothing from poor people on reddit, lately. Can't find a perspective on anything that isn't from some "middle-class" shit head.

        Yeah Reddit has always been for entitled rich American kids. The biggest news-making popular forums on the platform over the past decade have been forums dedicated to stock trading and to Republican presidential candidates.

        KitchenConfidential is the only sub outside of niche hobbies and I still look at, as it's 95% working class and like 5% petit bourgeois.
