    On a note regarding relationship advice, that’s so fucking true and I was always being downvoted there for pointing that out. I wonder how many relationships got broken because of Reddit’s advice on some of the minor and normal relationship problems that could be solved by talking it out instead of “that’s a red flag just dump them bro”.

      4th item is most likely referring to r/conservative as well which means they’re also mad they can’t participate in the hate chamber

      • Eh probably not, I used to get messages all the time saying “Oh you were subscribed to or posted in r/thisbullshit so we went ahead and banned you.” even though I didn’t even remember subscribing to or posting in said subreddit

        Also Reddit’s policy is officially that you cannot be banned from one subreddit for something that happened in another. This policy is so god damn ignored, that you’d think it was an officer’s oath to serve and protect.

      Yeeeeeaaaaah, when I read the bit about narrow talking points being allowed, I knew the author was either going to have a good point about Reddit’s tendency to circlejerk, or be a bigoted piece of shit. Not really shocked it’s the latter.

        They’re coming from 4chan. It was obvious how it was going to go just by the format of the post, before reading a single word

    • Indeed, one thing I love about being trans is that it gives me a radar for if someone is being based or just an asshole.

      If I detect transphobia I realize it’s just assholery.

    The fact anon used IPA as an example in the context of “acronyms they had to go look up the meaning of” says a lot about them, ngl.

    The tacked on casual transphobia finishes painting the picture of the sorta person they are.

    The problem is that 4chan is too degenerate and reddit is too, well… reddit. Unfortunately Lemmy is far from perfect as well.

      Reddit is populated by Bill Maher flavored liberals, 4chan is populated by Asmondgold flavored cockroaches, Tildes is populated by approximately seven users (but they’re all pretty cool), and Lemmy users are smart with tech and stupid with everything else

      Lemmy is more liberal than left, that’s my problem with it. You will get hate for saying very reasonable opinions just because it goes against certain narratives. Better yet, just spit straight facts and you will still get hate, like this: economic class matters more than race for nearly all aspects of life, and a considerable number of primarily-racial factors would also be solved by eliminating poverty and reducing overall inequality.

      Now watch the comments roll in.

        I disagree, on one hand people are really easily offended and on the other you have blatant open pedophilia among the anime communities and people calling for physical violence. It might be “just right” if you agree with the majority of people here. If your views are more moderate and nuanced, not so much. Context and intent does not seem to matter here.

        Addendum: This isn’t even anyones fault specifically, but of human psychology. Read about tribalism and social sorting, it is depressing as fuck. If you disagree with somebody your brain automatically puts them in the “enemy team” and attributes everything you consider evil or negative with them, whether you like it or not.

  • I wish there was a board where people would have the ideology of the left but without bring so triggered by anything.

    Just no concept of humor as a coping mechanism.

      I’ve had the fortune to post on niche micro-imageboards like that, irreverent but not hateful.

      They just have to stay small otherwise the classic issue of “Any community that gets its laughs by pretending to be idiots will eventually be flooded by actual idiots who mistakenly believe that they’re in good company” arises and now you can’t post pictures of black people without a chance of triggering the trolls.

      It seems like you are getting either one extreme or the other. I’d be fine with no extremism on either political side and more rational moderation.

      Stupidpol describes itself as “Subreddit focused on critiquing capitalism and identity politics from a Marxist perspective” and I’d say that’s pretty accurate. Despite being primarily Marxist, rightoids and libs are allowed to post so long as they flair themselves, and censorship is kept to a minimum (mostly just removal of anything that gets Reddit admins involved).

      Ummm this is actually so toxic and disrespectful. People on the left care about and advocate for marginalised people and so adding humour to them is a pretty bad look sweety. I think, respectfully, you should delete this now. And maybe catch up on some of your leftist reading… This comment gives me pretty yikes vibes…

    I hate how much over reach the mods have. Reddit doesn’t want to pay them so they let them have absolute power in their subs and thousands of people are punished because the mods wife cheated on him with his brother and he’s having a bad week.

    • because the mods wife cheated on him with his brother and he’s having a bad week

      Implying it wasn’t pre-arranged. Brother probably comes in like “hey baby -tips fedora- I just got back from my dog walking job and now I smell like at least 6 golden retrievers” and the mod’s wife’s panties drop because the brother has a job.

    As AVGN once put it, it’s like choosing the dog shit that is all mushy and wet that has been in the shade all day, vs. the dog shit that has dried out in the sun across the street. Yes, the dried out dog shit is still better to step in, but it is still dog shit.

    I’ve found some of the more shit post focused communities to actually be useful (or at least I did back when i still used Reddit).

    PrisonHooch had more helpful advice and recommendations than HomeBrewing; PoliticalCompassMemes actually allowed space for Leftists to debate the Far-Right; Cremposting was where you went to discuss your tinfoil hat theory’s on the works of Brandon Sanderson; etc. (I know there was a dozen or so of these I used to lean into, but those are the three that immediately come to mind).
