Why are Reddit Subs so annoyingly "QuIrKy1!!!"

  • 🔧 Actively working on site again.
Reddit is a hivemind that helps reinforce a "safe edgy" style where sexuality, politics, and religion are freely discussed but in a manner which only gives off the appearance of discourse or individuality until the moment somebody goes against the grain, in which case they are dogpiled by countless users you could be convinced are all actually the same person.
 
I never really used it.

I had something I could have used some opinion from professional about, so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Come to find out you cannot join the discussion if you don't have a minimum level of Karma. Which they don't even fucking tell you what the threshold is.

So I am supposed to farm fucking Karma so I can hopefully ask a question on a forum. Wtf?

This is beyond ridiculous.
 
Guys today I was in a burger king and there were a group of teenagers probably around 16 years old, they were all wh*te and they were mocking a Black kid for having "huge n*gg*ry lips", I stood up and screamed at them that they were all "racist, fascist trash" and they should be ashamed of themselves. Am I the asshole?

Sounds just like Kiwi Farms. It's safe and edgy, and you are allowed to make the same jokes about "niggers," "faggots," and "troons," but as soon as you disagree with the hive mind, you are dogpilled and downvoted.
 
Thanks for your unique insight friend! I hope you have a great day!
That right there is what really bothers me about Reddit posts - the super weird, cloying, fake niceness. It's as if they're all so socially stunted that they don't know the difference between being polite to a stranger and acting like you want to suck his dick.
