Reddit slowly became filled with hatelocked

I have been on reddit for just about 12 years now. Something I've noticed over time is just how hateful the place has become. A complete outrage machine. Every single sub became filled with it. I've filtered so many subreddits over the last few years, it's insane. I don't know enough about this place to be sure, but I do hope it doesn't become the same type of echo chamber of anger.

I think the user meant “norms”, as per the following definition:

norm

something that is usual, typical, or standard. "this system has been the norm in Germany for decades"

a standard or pattern, especially of social behavior, that is typical or expected of a group.

Thanks I misunderstood.

Yeah misunderstandings like this are the ones that people forget generate outrage and perceived hate.
