When did Cracked.com become Reddit?

Cracked used to be a great place for universal satire.

Now it's just typical politically correct drivel.

White people bad
Straight people bad
Men bad

they are just aiming for low hanging fruit, ala Reddit.

I guess the longer a website remains active, the farther to the left they shift.

Anyone else seeing this, or am I alone?

Very region specific, not really equitable.

Two totally different types of websites...

Neither do I, but I can still bemoan when a place I enjoy becomes a bastion of hating every aspect of me.

It's a collection of different writers, and I'm assuming a lot of these newer bloggers refined their talent on reddit.

That being said, most of the time you can tell which ones are obviously political in nature. I'll gloss over them to see if it's actually interesting or the same drivel I've heard a billion times over. David Wong is TERRIBLE about that, but he also produces some fantastic "self help" articles.

I don't think you get Reddit enough to make the correlation that you did.

Eh, take it at face value. Gladstone and the photoplasty are enough to satisfy my hunger.
