What an awful way to live.

I feel the same way about crazy people that think they’re being gang stalked and hunted down by the government.

Can someone tell me the appeal of Reddit? I'm old so I don't get it. Why would use a site that bases your ability to post on "karma"?

Well at least one reason why some people used it back in the day such as myself, one of the appeal was the many communities, how it catered to fandoms and similar things. Such as for specific tv shows (steven universe comes to mind based on my avatar I guess it is understandable) Gravity falls etc and also stuff for major online stuff, such as the famous twitch plays pokemon event for example. But this was obviously just one part of it and basically a more organized form of for example a tumblr community. Basically more "under the surface" than some "normie" thing such as facebook.

Those fandom subreddit even had the creators participating it in, with Alex hirsch( who was the creator of gravity falls) having amas posting stuff and getting people involved in crazy stuff such as finding a statue in the middle of a forest and keeping it all updated on reddit. Basically it was like a more organized version compared to the more chaotic 4chan style stuff back in the day at least.

Not sure how it really works today as I never noticed that whole karma shit. I guess it depends on the subreddit but then again they banned everything and all that stuff during the years until all that's left is FUCK DRUMPF and tranny stuff.

Reddit is okay with teachers beating up students as long as the kid really deserves it.

Like I feel really bad for the teacher but holy shit, do you really think it’s appropriate for a teacher or any adult to beat up an underage kid until they’re hospitalized?

Reddit hates kids. Any story real or fake (and we know most stories on reddit are fake) that has a kid getting "what they deserve" is loved on Reddit. They're the kind of people the peaked in high school.

But this one time when I was in a store... a kid walked up to me... and he asked where the bathroom was. I could not believe the nerve of this little shit! He's in 1st grade and he's making me take him to the bathroom???? FUCK THAT!! I chucked him out of the window (we were on the second floor by the way) to teach that bastard a lesson. He's fine guys, don't worry. All I did was rupture his spleen, he can still walk, he's fine. I hope he learned his lesson, shame it has to take getting thrown out of a building to get someone's attention nowadays. SMH.
Edit: Okay, I just got off the phone, and apparently the little shit's KIDNEY is busted??? I don't see how that's a big deal, he has two of them. SMH.

Making your cat morbidly obese for validation via useless internet points. The mods locked the thread after people began calling OP out for animal abuse.
The stickied mod comment reads as follows:
I'd like to remind you of our no [fat] shaming of the kitties. Belly up cats look particularly large, but that's not the point. Just don't do it.

(surprisingly not found on /r/chonkers, though I hate that animal abuse/neglect-glorifying sub with a passion as well)

Guys it's not animal abuse we swear. Now if you'll excuse me, good sir, I gotta go feed my cat a rotisserie chicken.

At the very least r/chonkers now includes an automated message on all submissions with instructions to help your obese cat lose weight because it's absolutely shameful and abusive to have an overweight pet. This exceptional janny, on the other hand, seems to think that a cat actually cares if someone "fat shames" it. The removed comments are absolutely reasonable but apparently not wanting a cat to die from being redditor-sized is narrow-minded and judgemental.

You see this mentality all the time in r/AmITheAsshole/aka AITA. People who are rude or irresponsible to kids almost always get a “NTA” (Not the Asshole) rating with commenters justifying it because OP “doesn’t owe anyone anything.”

One of the most infamous examples of child hate (and unfortunately I’m on mobile so can’t look it up) came when a parent made a post about how earlier that day she had lost track of her 2-year-old son. The police were called and OP was hysterical. After a long time of the police asking questions and investigating, one of the neighbors (an older lady) was like “Oh yeah, I saw him walking towards one of the neighbor’s yards a while ago.” The child was quickly found.

OP flipped out on the neighbor, asking why she didn’t stop the child and return him home or tell the police/OP what happened sooner. She was understandably very upset and yelled at the neighbor, causing the neighbor to get all huffy and call her an asshole. OP went to Reddit and made a post asking if she was out of line.

People on AITA overwhelmingly called her an asshole, telling her she shouldn’t have expected the neighbor to “do OP’s job” and “parent her kid for her.” They called OP selfish and horrible for expecting someone else to watch out for her kid for her. They said the neighbor was blameless because she doesn’t “owe anything“ to OP or the child.

I just remember my mom telling me about how one time she found a toddler by himself by the road, so she parked her car and went over to him. She started trying to find the child’s house, and fortunately soon met his frantic mother. Once she knew the toddler was safe my mom left.

My mom made the objectively right choice to help that small child even though she didn’t technically “owe him anything.” If she had kept driving, the toddler could have wandered into the road, or hurt himself, or gotten even more lost. A large chunk of AITA thinks you’re totally justified ignoring children in need because “not your kid, not your responsibility.” Because it’s not like humans have been looking out for other people’s children since the dawn of our species or anything.
