reddit General

Something I genuinely despise about any given reddit thread is that when they ask for help or with identifying something (Let's say they found a cool rock on a hike and what to know what it is), the top replies sorted by updoots will be some snark or joke or some autistic fixation on something in the background, not what the poster is asking for.

These people are so hungry for worthless internet karma they will make the same retarded jokes, waste everyone's time with snark or some other dumb shit, and continue on like this is how functional humans act. It's genuinely fucking annoying and exists on every sub, except maybe the very niche hobbyist ones.
imagine that, the first reddit link I click on when viewing this thread today!

If you didn't think you hated redditors enough already, specialist-bar-8805 will make sure anyone who doubts the 6 billion will be unemployable:

"This person doesn't believe the Holocaust? I will get them fired and their life destroyed I am sure this will change their mind about jews being evil liars!"

What a fucking retard. Someone who's willing to put their name and photo to the the fact that they're a white nationalist and holocaust denier won't be in a position where they'd lose their job over it.
 
I love this post so much I would gay marry it.

The reason for this is late night talk shows. From Jimmy Kimmel to John Oliver it's nonstop Trump Trump Trump Trump and has been for nearly a decade. The reason your 60 year old dad can't stop talking about Trump is them.

My genX parents are the exact same. 24/7 discussion and 'jokes' and fearmongering about le drumpf

Does anyone else rmemebr when every internet journalist was putting a large text disclaimer at the bottom of every article that mentioned Trump during his first campaign?

They'd publish an article about some mundane little factoid regarding Trump being racist, or bigoted and there would be a full paragraph on the bottom of the page after the article cautioning people about Trump like the Surgeons General Warning about lung cancer on a pack of cigarettes.

It's not just the late night shows it's all the mainstream news media too. No one is immune to propaganda and it's been constant in pretty much every form of media for a decade. It's interesting that the younger generation is starting to notice it though. Propaganda fatigue?

The only thing that's really changed is the younger generation isn't tricked into believing that a source is non-biased. "Propaganda" is obvious to them, but they don't really care as long as it reinforces their side. It's honestly a step in the right direction. Instead of propaganda, the word now is radicalization, which is strictly only for people who consume far-right content and nothing at all whatsoever to do with left-wing (source: some gay jew).

I could be wrong about that but it seems right. Like obviously the kids aren't watching CNN or Fox anymore but they're also not debating about which news source is the most "fair and balanced" - because none of them are.

This reminds me of that collage of reddit posts by people who had sex dreams about Trump. The idea that someone could happily flaunt their social justice orthodoxy breaks their programming and becomes an obsession.

The media loves him. If comedians and "journalists" are pulmonary oncologists and Trump is Marlborough. If he didn't exist, they would have to invent him.
Rank and file libs love the high they get off of the opportunities for performative outrage he gives.
 
Fucking Christ it really has been about nine years, hasn't it? Nine years and liberals are still furious that he was running and then won. I can hold a grudge, but I can't imagine having such seething hatred over anything for even a a full week let alone nine years.
At a certain point you just have to wonder how the fuck are people still entertained by the Trump shit after literally a decade of nonstop coverage of him? Is John Oliver smugly talking about how Trump is orange really still that funny 10 years later? Are you that braindead?

they dont watch it because of its quality, they watch it out of habit.

i am not american but i have immediate family in that same age bracket and it's the same exact shit here. that generation has grown up with the TV as their main source of news and information about the world as well as their main source of entertainment, they have been watching TV on a daily basis for many decades.
to put it into perspective: they have been watching tv every single day since before most of us here were even born. it is hard to overstate how powerful the televisions influence is on those people.

The more educated among us know that redditors aren't actually people, they're hungry ghosts cursed to roam the world in search of fake internet points.

Don't have anything substantive to say on a post? Comment anyway! It's open mic night in the adult center and everyone in the audience is retarded too. Because of the implications? We had a funeral for a bird! THANOS SNAPPED!

I know it sounds dramatic, but it's almost hard to think of people that are this far gone as, like, people. Their brain chemistry is so far beyond the scope of people that aren't literal actual retards or sincere schizo patients that it's hard to imagine them as anything but buglike drones. They have no critical thinking skills and will literally just make up lies about Trump and then get mad over these lies like they actually happened, it's entirely mindboggling. I've seen celebrities or other politicians get hate, but I've never in my life seen such a drastic showcase of mind-numbing hatred and delusion as people sperging over Trump. Like some people still think if he wins again that he'll send out the army to hunt down faggots and Mexicans and have them slaughtered in the streets, they actually believe this as fact.

A very close family member of mine came up to me the night of the 2016 election when Trump was announced as the winner and was talking about how they were worried their gay friends were going to be put into concentration camps. That's a real thing that happened. The shit people believe about Trump is absolutely insane. The media hysteria around him is unparalleled. No other president in modern history has been so thoroughly villainized.

It's worse because he won and we went through for years of his "tyranny" and nothing happened. Somehow he'll have more power to perform his evil genocides in his second term, I guess? And it's clear a lot of his haters just despise him because headlines tell him to. I've seen those with TDS being asked to name something racist he said, and they couldn't even list an example, they just fumed, seethed, and usually blocked.

I still remember the stupid shit like the two scoops, ketchup on steak, and the pee tape which was literally just made up by /pol/ for fun yet a lot of liberals tricked themselves into believing it's real. It's sheer madness.
