>>3660 >>3661 >>3662 Good info about who is currently running the place. It also explains why the place has become the center point of censorship. >>3667 The reason we talk about it now is because if it is broken down in the future we can preemptively strike before they build up the next new thing.
>>3671 I think the design of Reddit is inherently flawed as well, though it would be much better without the political correctness, (shadow) banning, and censorship.
Just to exclaim:
>[Steve Huffman] is on the board of advisors for the Anti-Defamation League's Center for Technology and Society.
>>3684 He looks deranged even without the information about his potential cannibalism. Any white person who hangs out with blacks is deranged anyways.
I used to think that reddit comments posted on chans were cherry picked examples of rare weird commenters but then i realized that's 80% of reddit.
I get that the website appeals to the lowest common denominator with it's social media type of up votes which will attract blacks, Mexicans and others from who i understand anti white hatred.
But i can't understand how deranged white redditors are. Self hatred, cuckoldry and hatred of normal white people is prevalent among them. It makes me fear that this is the future of our society.
Haven't spent much time on it, but I get the impression that it's the corporate backed catch-all (centralization initiative) for online bulletin board format of communication.
It's essentially the "safe space" version of a chan so anyone who hangs out there is probably a purple haired 'it' with penis envy or nu-male faggot.
Reddit is botnet. That is the only complaint I have.
Just don't visit the larger communities. Its like going to 8chan popular boards and saying theyre shit and therefore 8chan is shit. You're just visiting the sewer parts like an idiot.
>>8167 Maybe in larger boards. In the past few years some boards have been banned but last time I used it there were /r/fatpeoplehate , /r/spacedicks (mostly genital mutilation) /r/coontown and other b level subreddits.
It has gotten shitter since though but still far from sterile.
>>8169 >last time I used it there were /r/fatpeoplehate , /r/spacedicks (mostly genital mutilation) /r/coontown and other b level subreddits.
Last time you used it must have been half a decade ago.
thank you. ive been wanting to rant about reddit somewhere
>be on "woke" circlejerk sub
>since the community typically centers around American culture, innevitably some SJW shit comes up in a thread
>write "TRIGGERED" in a comment
>comment is removed
on said sub mods claim:
>we have free speech here
>we dont allow "socialjerking" [aka making fun of SJW shit] because it kills lulz
in every fucking sub:
>i bet ur fun at parties
fuck it i had a good rant built up this morning but after a long day of shit i forget.
Having an opinion seems to be quite dangerous in reddit. I will never return to that cancer. ALso the times that I've clicked on reddit links, searhcing for info, the threads were full of retarded mocking the OP for asking a question- what I was searching. Triggered. Reddit is shit :-)
it was about art/illustration. i wanted to discuss concept art and i posted some work of mine. inevitably i got a warning. Reddit left a bad impression on me, plus the general public seemed dull, the responses were very low effort and or mocking legitimate questions.
Unfortunately I still have to browse reddit to get local news and recommendations from members of my town because the alternative is a litany of Facebook groups. It's kinda hilarious though how barely restrained the not-liberal sentiment is, kept in check by the liberal shitheads and moderators colluding to downvote anybody who dares mention that the drug addicts swarming around downtown might not be helpless angels.
One thing I note about plebbit in general is it's a very "short dopamine burst" site. The humor is "lelelel so randumb" and yeah it makes me laugh, but only for 1 second and then it's no longer funny. In other words it's an addictive quick burst of dopamine that doesn't last very long and can't be repeated, so it keeps the customer constantly consuming more. Almost like eating empty calorie chips that keep you hungry. Obviously, this is the perfect model for modern (((capitalism))) and the mindless worker drone herds they're cultivating. It's like this all over the normalfag internet - simple subversion humor that makes you laugh for half a second and then the dopamine burst is over.
Contrast that with imageboards: we have laughs that are gut bustingly funny, and stay with you forever. It's a darker, more bitter form of humor that skirts the absurd. But it's only funny because it's based in truth. Usually terrible truths, like how dumb and violent niggers are, but truth nonetheless. It also has a variety that the rest of the internet lacks. Take pic related, where some idiot just starts talking about stuff and people begin losing their shit. This couldn't happen if you were trying to shape online discourse and cultivate a consumer herd.
Imageboards are like a community stew where we all add things. Usually some idiot adds shit, and the stew has to be abandoned, but the speed at which we can set up new stews outpaces the ability of a small minority to ruin everything. When things go right, a good thread is like a stew with a dozen different ingredients and a handful of herbs and seasonings. Compare that to the rest of the internet, which is the same formula for sugary empty calories, just dressed up in a new CSS candy wrapper.
>>9725 >it's a very "short dopamine burst" site
Like TV shows with ads every 5 minutes, games where you die and have to wait for next turn, modern internet (kikebook, jewtube).
Glad I'm not the only one noticing it.
>In other words it's an addictive quick burst of dopamine that doesn't last very long and can't be repeated, so it keeps the customer constantly consuming more
Exactly, I get you.
I don't know about the rest, but I quickly get bored of such model. I feel that burst is fake and will never be any good. I found anime and imageboards because, while also addictive, are actually rewarding. I feel good I can have discussion with another human being about non-normie thing.
I may now sound like a faggot but imageboards are my way of learning. Plenty of things I discovered and learned here I wouldn't be able on let's say cuckkit. Autists who will fight who is right is exciting for me to read. I'm sometimes participating, that way we can learn new things.
I'm now quitting anime and nip faggotry, but imageboards will stay a bit more in my internet daily day. Not that I have anything better to do while using computer, maybe movies.
>>3659 Reddit is a generic spam website that any normal human would filter out as noise (and that's why you almost never come across it while doing research: the search engine also filters it out as noise). You can't even have a discussion on that website much less on the new theme because you get a tiny little box with tiny font to post in, with a shitty markdownsyndrome text formatting scheme. An imageboard actually admits that it's for shitposting, while reddit is a bunch of retards that think they are in a special secret club of higher thought. It's literally just a bunch of links to clickbait and then there's a fucking hidden button to open the comments about the link and then hidden buttons to open anything that's downvoted. It took about 10 years before I even stepped foot onto that piece of shit website, and even now, it's still not relevant.
