It sounds like you're listing bad things about reddit but what's wrong with advice animals and rage comics? I don't really know any drama around Ron Paul or Faces of Atheism either. The latter certainly sounds like the name of a cult though.

Faces of Atheism was the single most cringe shit that I've ever seen, it was a bunch of fedora-wearing neckbearded atheists posting pictures of themselves overlaid with edgy and pseudo intellectual quotes by themselves. The euphoric one was the best lmfao I'm gonna copy/paste it here from the KYM page

"Just to be clear, I'm not a professional 'quote maker'. I'm just an atheist teenager who greatly values his intelligence and scientific fact over any silly fiction book written 3,500 years ago. This being said, I am open to any and all criticism.

'In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.'"

Cringy but who cares?

I miss the niche communities. So much knowledge about hobbies, crafts, cooking, anything. They will grow here though, with time.
