What is the worst subreddit? - inb4 "all of them"

  • Thread starter Thread starter PT 522

What does a thread like this accomplish? I mean realistically, to have a "worst" subreddit, you require subreddits which have redeeming qualities when compared to it.

But if I tell you the worst is, for example, r/latestagecapitalism, that doesn't mean there's anything remotely redeeming about r/kotakuinaction or r/polyamory.

The sad reality is that the "best" subreddits are likely oriented toward hobbies, the sort that require you to hone skill at a real craft. And even then, all of those will likely be shit up in the future if they haven't been already.

r/Artifact was always a very painful subreddit from the start, given how the TI7 crowd didn't take the announcement of the game well from the start. The lack of information about the game prior to the gameplay reveal stream (in which the reveal stream was so awful that the viewership of it dropped like rocks from Day 1) was also painful to watch. Not to mention things such as people unironically using the Rick & Morty meme to describe the game, and telling people off so that they don't "ruin" Artifact by turning it into a lowest common denominator game like Hearthstone, which people actually did leave. When people started leaving the game because of how bad it was, they called people that talked negatively about the game at all as Hearthstone or MTG trolls, with some people even believing that Blizzard and/or Wizards of the Coast paid people to troll the Artifact communities to bring the game down. Some members even did "background checks" of people talking negatively about the game, again calling them "HS/MTG shills" if they happen to participate on those subreddits. I don't recall other subreddits of other dying/dead games doing those things.

Also, some of the mods of r/DOTA2 are also mods of r/Artifact, and given the amount of content that is removed, it's assumed that the mods are power tripping, and they themselves are frustrated that the game flopped so horribly.

Now that Valve gave up on the game in it's current state, and say that they plan to redo the game ala FFXIV (whether that actually happens is another thing altogether though), the subreddit quieted down significantly.

Anything to do with trans, trannies themselves are not the the problem but there will inevitably be a discussion on transitioning minors (and helping them make life altering decisions pre-puberty) that borders on pedophilia but if anyone speaks out (tranny or not) they will be silenced in the name of "hate-speech".

Honestly. Once upon a time I really enjoyed scrolling through the front page before the redesign. Now all I get when I browse r/all are women high fiving each other about the creep at the bar, people posting nothing pictures of themselves saying how happy they are and the same US centrc political drooling.

r/vegan. It fits just about every stereotype you have about vegans. Also, people from that sub will actively brigade other subreddits that go against veganism. They’re not as bad as r/vegancirclejerk, but they’re still obnoxious.

I believe factory farming is worse than the Holocaust, slavery, and all other atrocities in history combined. OK, so I know this is a controversial view even among vegans. But hear me out, Humans kill 70 billion nonhuman animals every single year; trillions of beings over decades. Humans castrate, debeak, de-tail billions of beings every single year. We lock them in cages for years until they go insane and scream in misery, rip their babies away, slam them headfirst for being runts. We manhandle infants as we cram them into transport, and many animals suffer broken, shattered bones. They get sent in trucks in all weather conditions, and millions freeze to death or die of heat exhaustion. We boil alive tens of millions of beings alive globally, because of improper stunning and rapid pace of slaughter. Thousands of animals burn alive in cages when CAFOs accidentally catch fire. Millions drowned when Hurricane Florence hit North Carolina. Millions starve, because of conditions in factory farms. We throw the weak and exhausted animals, screaming in terror, into gas chambers. Several years ago, South Korea decided to bury alive 1.5 million pigs, because they were sick. Go watch the video online. This sort of thing (culling) happens all the time.



Today's speciesism is the worst crime in history. Many people think that's an exaggeration, but when you stop and think about it, that's where the logic leads. Species membership is irrelevant. What does that mean? Not that all humans and other animals have equal moral value. But it does mean that sentience and different capacities are what count. That there is no moral difference between nonhuman animals and humans of similar capacity. This means that what we do to billions of beings is morally equivalent to doing the same to disabled humans with the minds of 1 to 3 year-olds-- all for taste pleasure. The vastness of this dwarfs any other atrocity in history. Even though the life of the average concious human possesses greater moral value than, for example, a chicken or cow, the sheer scale of this violence surpasses every past crime. Even if you are an extreme speciesist and believe an animal life is 1/1000th as important as a human life, this is still the worst thing ever. It is like a fresh holocaust every day.

Wait no that was unpopularopinion

This is a post from vegancirclejerk

I’m angry at all my non vegan friends, classmates, teachers, and family. And when i talk about veganism about them they joke and dont take it that seriously. But at least statistics show that the number of vegans in the world is going up fast. But its still to slow. If everyone is vegan in 10 years, about 1000000000000 animals will still die. I hate most of humanity for their lack of empathy. But i keep talking to people about it hoping they will listen. I hope everyone will look back in disgust at what they did, Like i did when i went vegan.



uj/ I'm tired, guys. I'm so tired of this battle It seems like no matter what we do, carnists aren't going to listen. . Billions of animals slaughtered: I sleep A dog killed in a hot car: real shit?? . They have empathy, but only for a limited species. Only when they don't have to do anything. I'm sad that the welfare of animals is second to convenience. Sometimes I want to cry just thinking about it. Also, fuck /r/vegan for being such a doormat. Are they really vegan? Bunch of omni apologists and enablers. If someone is aware of the struggle animals endure, they wouldn't need baby steps to stop contributing to animals' misery. Apology for poor English but I needed to rant. TL;DR: Fuck omnis and their doormat /r/vegan



Veganism is bittersweet. On the one hand, you feel liberated from tyrannical, oppressive societal conditioning but on the other, you are faced with the stark reality of what humanity causes. My Mum recently said to me "I don't know how you do it, it must be like watching the Holocaust happen." She is right.
The only way I can maintain sanity is to tell myself I was like that for 27 years and I changed. Not only does that give me hope others will, but it also helps me to understand that everyone else isn't evil, they've just been lied to and conditioned their entire lives. I can still love humans despite what we do to animals, on an individual level at least, as a species we are fucking disgusting and deserve extinction.



how fragile are these guys



It's typical "fuck you got mine" mentality. All these shits want to be able to "live their life as they see fit" without thinking of others. Including animals or their own (grand)childeren. And then people wonder why I'm so "selfish" for not wanting kids. There should be vegan only homeland or something. I'm so goddamn tired. If it wasnt for animals I'd go full carnist and make sure we kill of humanity through global warming.



I think one of the biggest hurdles I had to face as a vegan is realizing how many people around me really just live their lives without making conscious decisions. It’s like having to shake people out of this dormant state of ignorance to get them to believe in something. To make potentially hard decisions because it is right and that is it. Don’t hate me if I sound like a doormat vegan but small change is change and we can’t just force people to live a certain way and we need to be grateful for that because no one can make us do anything either. No parts of this food system that we are a part of are working the way they should, but people that care can help fix it! Some really positive ways you could channel frustration is to put your energy into different areas beyond just trying to educate the people immediately around us. You can get involved in local politics if that is an option for you and help make animal welfare changes on a smaller level. You can volunteer your time at an animal shelter, foster animals, or go visit an animal sanctuary and donate needed goods. Maybe you’ll find some likeminded people or you could bring others with you and show them how these animals need love and protection too. And for your own good try to find a vegan community of people physically near you if you can. I went through almost 7 months of a really depressive state full of sadness and hate after I went vegan and I think it just really does take a long time for your brain to deal with how horrendous the world is. It can feel hopeless but you don’t have to drown in those feelings forever. You are making a difference, keep educating yourself and others! Keep fighting for the animals and be proud that you’re someone that gives a shit enough about their actions that you’re doing something about it.

This is just vegan speak for LITERALLY HITLER for anyone that eats animals. Also, it’s kind of gross that this person compares disabled kids to animals as well.

I mean if you have a moral system that quantifies organisms' "value" based on their intelligence a la Peter Singer it's an academically, if not socially defensible comparison. Generally speaking most kiwis do this, and deal with any moral dissonance by devaluing mentally disabled children and adults rather than uplifting non-pet animals, but it's the same idea.

In practice in society we grant non-sapient humans and pet animals value through the "bestowment principle," which insinuates that these individuals have value through their subjective value to their families, owners and other full members of society, but this is a principle based in our feelings surrounding certain relationships rather than utilitarianism, which is the preferred moral framework in the modern day, or pure "logic," so a lot of more progressive thinkers don't like it.

I don't want to link to things I might've once frequented, but there's a forum for certain types of creators... it could be a great place. Instead, it's a great example of what happens when you let the inmates run the asylum. The ego driven incompetence and sheer denial in the face of facts, oh good God.

I suppose this could go for most of Reddit, tbh.
 
Reddit is the reverse Midas Touch of the Internet. Every subreddit is a varying degree of shit, it just depends on the size of the community that dwells in it.

EDIT: r/AHS (Against Hate Subreddits) is probably the worst right now, since they started spamming child porn in subreddits they want to take down while claiming the high ground.

Man, I hate Redditors.
