It's become almost unreadable... is this by design? Maybe? Probably?

Almost every title is clickbait. For the most part it's screenshots from some social media site that appear profound but is so vague as to be meaningless. A LOT of contrived content. Currently the top post with 5000 upvote is a post about old people being in positions of power, but in the workplace that's usually not the case because they are senile. This isn't even a conspiracy.

Furthermore it's almost all image posts, again with the aforementioned and no actual content. The submissions statement, allegedly to alleviate the stupidity, plays no role in the upvote/downvote system, because it's often buried deep in the comments (as it's not stickied to the top of the comments). Furthermore, there seem to be no standards for the submission statement.

Furthermore, it's become a sort of reddit refuge for any "edgy" politics, usually right-wing. This is fine if it actually relates to a conspiracy, but a lot of it is just politics, political commentary, or social commentary. Moderation seems nonexistant despite 13 users being listed under mods, most of which are quite active.
