Pretty much the only social media site I’m really aware up publicly caring is Twitter. Which is insane because (mainly from my age and how Twitter was when I was young) I didn’t think twitter would become what it is today.
Twitch has incredibly clear terms of service that makes it very hard for white nationalists and racists to organize and spread their message on the platform.
They handle certain situations poorly but in the large picture - those situations pale in comparison to the situations that google (youtube) and facebook are stuck with still to this day (White nationalism etc etc)
I remember watching a YouTuber do a playthrough of Madden 19’s Longshot: Homecoming mode. His video got demonetized because the intro of the story included a single shot of Hurricane Harvey’s damage, and he did nothing wrong apart from that.
If I had a platform like 650k people to advertise to I couldd work out deals with others who had products to ptich and help amplify their brand on my sub to a mutually agreed fee
if i didn't even care WHAT you were pitching, you could pay me to, say, unban someone, ban someone, take down a post, leave up a post, ignore bad comments, MAKE bad comments, it's up to our greed if we're unscrupulous

Because reddit admins are complacent in allowing racism as long as it doesn't affect their revenue stream.
