Reddit truly is a cursed place.

It's really weird how redditors think they're high IQ and nuanced for saying children should be able to engage in sex. In reality, most people would take you as a creep for saying something like that out loud.
Below is another example of reddit being creepy towards kids and demonizing a father because he doesn't want to buy his 12 year old a sex toy. There are some sane people in the comments but unfortunately that's over shadowed by the amount thinking OP is the asshole.

A pre-pubescent child who asks for sex toys is being groomed. Why the fuck do Redditors not realize this shit?

They know this because they're the ones rushing to normalize their actions so no one can openly give them shit for grooming and pushing sexuality on the vulnerable.

@Geese Howard That's extremely useful to know, but also very terrifying. This means that anyone with a lot of money can create thousands of bots with ease. :cryblood:

I don't have the album at hand immediately, but there's actually a lot of hard evidence of Reddit being filled with bots due to incidents where hundreds of bots accidentally spammed the wrong posts. Reddit is filled with them.

I believe the youtuber Reactor proved how easy it is to use bots on reddit years ago, and it looks like they haven't fixed a damn thing. He didn't even need to auto updoot that much. Once you get rolling on the front page with social proof the plebbitors will updoot you further.

My predictions after the IPO:
  • All 'edgy' content purged (obviously already happening)
  • Removing access to third-party apps like Apollo on iOS or Sync on Android so all ads can be controlled via the official app
  • Full Porn purge
  • Removal of spez
  • Decline into irrelevance
  • Site sells for $50 to digg
Reddit just doesn't have the hook for investors. "Wait, my company/content/actor, etc can be downvoted???"

Reddit is gonna IPO? God damn I can't wait to find out how much money plebbitors waste on giving out fake internet badges.
 
I want to take a moment to rant about /r/52book which is a sub for a yearly book challenge where you try to read 52 books. However, 90% of what is posted is social justice crap, woke contemporary fiction, and shitty fantasy and YA, basically illustrating how Redditors are real-life NPCs. These people seem to have no interests outside of whatever the NYT tells them to read and what's on the shelves at Target. I am truly baffled how these people literally lack interest in any topic. I truly think it would be better to just not read at all than to read all shitlib books. Seeing people actually posting interesting, obscure books or books indicating they have a particular interest is relevatively rare.

It's like the Business Journal's list of rich peoples' favorite books. It's all Becoming, How to Be Anti-Racist, etc. All books that came out in the last few years about social justice. There is no way that those books are actually their favorite books. I refuse to believe that rich people don't like normal books .

So, one of the arguments I saw against the existence of NoNewNormal used most often was that people are encouraging one another to take a drug that might wind up killing them.

Fair enough.

So why do all of these subs exist?

r/cocaine
r/heroin
r/meth
r/crack
r/fentanyl
r/drugs
r/stims
r/cripplingalcoholism
r/gluesniffing

I'm sure there's a ton more, but that's as much as I give a shit. None of those subs are focused on addiction recovery, they're all people bragging about what they just got from their dealers with the occaisonal glimmer of self-awareness.

Don't forget /r/opiates an incredibly depressing subreddit which has 130k subs where you can actively see people of all ages destroying their lives and getting advice on how to shoot up and score heroin. A place that has bi-weekly memorial threads because posters are constantly overdosing and dying. This is all after they cleaned the sub up it used to be far worse and people would make threads where they would share mugshots from their recent drug arrests and laugh about it. If reddit wants to crack down on subs where people put dangerous drugs into their body that might kill them they are completely hypocritical for leaving this sub up for the past 12 years


https://www.reddit.com/r/opiates/comments/pi3bj2/the_good_ol_days_of_ropiates/ <-- interesting thread on the history of the sub and when it was more fucked up then it is now.
