    15% of reddit is probably political, the other 85% are niche subreddits.

      You think corpo content is limited to political subs?

        No, but just from my own personal experience, at least the corpo accounts on niche subreddits are open and upfront about it, and use it as an official customer service place. Whereas the political shills aren’t disclosing who they’re paid by.
