It's a problem in all of the Netherlands. The country is going through a weird internal struggle over whether they want to speak English or Dutch and now the government is getting involved and making laws about colleges teaching a certain amount of classes in only Dutch, since most universities teach in English, and they have prostituted their higher education out to international students who don't want to learn Dutch (because who the fuck would want to learn such an ugly, obsolete language when they could just learn the most spoken language in the world instead).


This link goes over both sides of it. Of course reddit retards are also going to be political dumbasses about it and make rules that you can only speak in one language or the other.

The largest subreddit is r/thenetherlands which allows both Dutch and English, as long as the comments are consistent with the post.
The second largest with 1/5 the amount of people is r/netherlands which is the one that is posted and is only English.
The third largest is r/nederlands which is only Dutch.

To be honest it doesn't seem like too bad of a system, but the fact that an English only subbreddit about the netherlands exists is pretty stupid but that's the world we live in now a days. Whether they are English, Mexican, Brazilian, American, Venezuelan, Polish, Chinese etc. people just move places and don't bother to learn the language and don't care. If I had to guess r/netherlands is the black sheep of the 3 and has the least productive discussion but I don't know, I ain't Dutch.

I mean, its not that weird that it exists.
However, that sub is notorious for mods reacting really badly whenever someone comments in dutch there, even if its on accident or just a few words in an otherwise english comment, its deleted and they're quite ban-happy, too.
There's even been cases of OTHER expats who can't even really speak dutch accidentally getting themselves banned for using too much dutch.

Theres also a mild political divide, with netherlands and thenetherlands being very leftist, and nederlands being a bit more right centered.

I think the most ironic part of it all is that multiple times a week the expats on r/netherlands bitch about struggling to learn dutch because no one wants to practice with them...

I want to learn Dutch just cause it sounds like a Englishman who has a kind of American accent speaking really wasted.

probably a tranny or something, who thinks the united states are a cursed deathland for all those who troon out. laos is high on the list of places tourists get stolen from or raped, and in 2015 (it must have gotten better since then i guess) it was listed as a high advisory level for travel for US citizens.

I hope more redditors go to Laos and contribute to the local economy via the bandit class.

Do promoted "posts" not get saved to the reddit profile? Did they just delete this later for some reason?
 
On Reddit, you're not allowed to have anything without ~the resistance~ butting in.

Context: A 50-year-old woman crocheted up a childish literal cape with an anti-Trump message embroidered very poorly on it. She posts it to le Reddit (with her fat tits blurred out ((she'd cut them off if she could!))), some meanies complain about politics being shoved in everywhere on Reddit, but fellow resistors rise up and applaud her for her bravery, chasing off the evil nazi apathy.

I miss forums, guys :(
 
The absolute worst thing about hobby subreddits is that they're constantly flooded with poorly executed projects that only get attention because they feature some trendy political message (usually a leftist, US-centered slogan). These posts get upvoted into oblivion, while any attempt at an actual discussion about the hobby itself is usually pointless

Terrorism is a mass crime committed with a political goal in mind. This meets the bare minimum definition.

Redditors are delusional about foreign countries because they're all Americans and have only heard about other countries via mainstream media. They think the less White a place is, the safer it is because the American education system has drilled into their gullible skulls that anything vaguely European is evil.

For kicks, I did a quick lookup on the State Department's website for Laos; most of the country is on Level 2 Travel Advisory (exercise increased caution) because of an epidemic of drug trafficking, gang violence, banditry, and explosive ordinance left over from the Indochina War. Xaisomboun Province in particular is on Level 3 Travel Advisory because there's consistent clashes between the military there and anti-government groups that have resulted in people getting shot. For reference, the travel advisory level goes up to 4, with countries like North Korea getting a level 4 designation.

If you go to Laos you risk getting blown up by mines, shot by drug traffickers, or shot by anti-government forces. The only places in the US that could get close to this level of violence are bughive cities like Detroit, though I know redditors consider cities to be the only parts of America that actually exist so I guess I wouldn't be shocked. And even then, Detroit doesn't have fucking unexploded ordinance laying around!
