Or without buying the Soylent opening tool, there are a number of ways of addressing tight jars. Just tapping it with a spoon often loosens it. Or if it's still vacuum sealed, putting a hole in the lid. Running it under hot water because the metal gets hot first and expands more than the glass.

And then, if you absolutely must:

Has anyone ever considered that maybe Soylent actually is difficult to open? I'm not gay so I've never seen a bottle in person let alone tried to open one.

If reddit is mostly 30 something year old neckbeard losers then why is it so progressive and liberal, these people dont seem to be particularly diverse but they support a lot of leftist ideas.
It's a lot of Indians and women too. Also Chinese and Filipinos. The white liberal moderators all got bullied very heavily in high school and this is their way of exerting power.

Whimsical character in a whimsical musical gets milk from a whimsical animal, vegan seethes with rage. Even if he just used a cow it still wouldn't be vegan so what the hell is there to be angry about? That the giraffe is in a pen at night? Why don't we just let it free roam the city, I can't see anything that could possibly go wrong with that. What a bizarre thing to take offense from.

Willy Wonka isn’t exactly known for following regulations.

I haven't seen the movie but I looked up images from this scene. The giraffe looks like it's in the inside portion of an inside/outside pen that I've seen at a few zoos. It seems pretty normal to me to put an animal inside at night.
So typical vegan logic.

r/science jannies frequently remove not just offending comments, but entire comment chains. I've seen posts there before with over 90% of the comments removed.

r/science claims to be so censorious in order to encourage high quality discussion. Because we all know the way to encourage high quality discussion is to silence all discussion. Most of the comments I see removed are highly upvoted, insightful comments that do not violate any of these rules:

lmao, there is a famous reviewer on Letterboxd who puts "vegan warnings" on every movie she watches which includes shit like "character made scrambled eggs" "character appears to wear a fur coat in one scene" weird to see this on Reddit too.

Also isn't it a kid's movie, why are they watching it without their kid in the first place?

It always infuriates me how Redditors love to throw around "fascist" and "bootlicker" as insults when they fucking LOVE rules. They love controlling what other people can say and punishing them if they say the wrong thing. Go to any major sub's sidebar and you'll see rules that go on and on and on. They have zero issue with totalitarianism. They don't believe in free speech. They just don't want to hear opposing viewpoints.

Didn't think we'd see something rival the jars too tight divorce this soon but here we are in r/HousePlants.

Crazy woman has 200 house plants that "are the one and only thing that help me with my mental health". Boyfriend wants her to move in with him and will give her 3 whole walls of the apartment for them (essentially an entire room), which apparently isn't enough for 200+ fucking plants. What is literally every single comment saying?

Even sorting by controversial I cannot find a single comment in over 600 that are anything other than shades of this insane bullshit.
 
r/minecraft jannies stage a coup against the head janny because he removed a post without giving an explanation

The post that got removed was about some autist recreating geometry dash in game which is kind of neat I guess but no idea why removing this post warranted a hostile takeover

This is going to be a bumpy ride for a little while, but we're confident everything's going to turn out well in the end.
Nigger you're a janny who got together with other jannies to kick out another janny, nothings even changed. Just keep sweeping. Reddit mods always feel the need to make themselves sound so important.
 
If there's no reason for it to be removed then it's always the real reason of: this post was getting more traction than the post I liked more (which was most likely posted by me or one of my friends).

The judaic echochamber affirms that its totally normal to email corporate about some minimum wage workers at a grocery store being a bit critical about israel in their own conversation.

Any dislike of israel is an antisemtic hatecrime, of course. I guess the EU placing sanctions on russia is slavphobic?

Also 'life preserer' lol what kind of delusional cope is this ?

And all the comments affirming that she's a karen are nuked with the downvote button, of course.

Reddit feels like a failed social experiment that refuses to die. Somehow it keeps sustaining itself.

The Mods of r/minecraft are infamous for being absolute cunts when it comes to removing shit, but there are two key examples.
They removed a post from someone who managed to create a playable version of Minecraft in Minecraft with redstone. Why? because he had a ip to the server he built it on at the start of the video, in very tiny text in the middle of 1 paragraph in a 3 paragraph preamble

A few months later, a guy called Brendan would post to the reddit about how his Girlfriend of 5 years had died and she had left a unfinished build on their realm, and asked for suggestions for what to do with it. He would make a follow up post a few days later showing off a tree he had built within her unfinished castle. A unknown moderator would remove the post for breaking a few rules. Brendan would dispute the removal, and get the very tactful response of "You've milked your girlfriends death for enough karma".
5 to 6 hours after Phoenix posted his video, a Mod would post a apology regarding the situation, a very short one but a apology none the less. People were still really mad over what happened, and the drama wouldn't die off. (Note for anyone not watching the videos, Phoenix was banned 5 years prior to the Brendan situation due to alleged self promotion.)
11 days after the initial apology, the mods would announce some changes, and would suspend the mod who sent the message for 4 weeks. People still weren't happy at this point but the drama died off after this, probably because everyone got sick of it and there was no new developments.

During the June API protest, Mojang would leave the subreddit for their own website. While this happened during the reddit blackout/protest over the API changes, I can't help but feel like it was partly because of the drama magnet the sub was. Also something I noticed in the post you linked was that the mod who sent the "Dead Girlfriend karma baiting" response actually left during the incident, and the whole "4 week suspension" was probably a cover story so people wouldn't piece together who the mod was.
