Having been here a while, I can say that we've apparently lost site of the roots of the community that originated on the subreddit, and while I don't see a way to reverse this decline, I think it's at least worth talking about.

Essentially the level and tenor of the discourse has altered dramatically; I've gone ahead and listed out the type and style of the high quality content we saw back on the day on the upper half of this diagram, and done what I could to contrast it with the sort of typical content and user type we see now. I think any objective observer will agree this is a downgrade.

This objection is child's play.

This is content. But what sort of content? This is a post. But what is a post? The post is a relation which relates via posting to its own post, or it is that in the relation [which accounts for it] that the relation relates via posting to its own post; the post is not the relation but [consists in the fact] that the relation relates via posting to its own post. This is a synthesis of the infinite and the finite, of the temporal and the eternal, of freedom and necessity, in short it is a synthesis. A synthesis is a relation between two factors. So regarded, this is not yet a post.
