There's quite a few problems, the main one being that you now need to define what is and isn't offensive. What offends you will be different to what offends me. If you go around removing everything that offends anyone you'll end up with nothing at all. In the specific case of Reddit, I began to have problems when they announced they wanted to turn it into a "safe space". "Safe spaces" for thoughts don't and shouldn't exist. Other people should be open to criticize everything you say. You have the options of engaging in that conversation, or if they are aggressive, just ignoring them. Going around claiming that people shouldn't say certain things because it 'offends' you is not very constructive.
