If I understand it correctly, the idea with Reddit is that the
community can decide what news it wants to see, by posting links
and then filtering them. If the community wants hate speach (or
more of those Ron Paul links) and Reddit serves up hate speach,
then isn't the algorithm working?
I suppose you could actively ban users who skew the community in
that direction -- though you'd have an endless calvacade of sock
puppets to deal with.
