one thing that's funny to do on reddit is to make a joke about republicans. within about 3 minutes you'll get a reply like "Wow. Nice generalization. Have you considered that not all of us are the same? :smug:

It was the subreddit all the militant SJWs that used to camp on the forums ran to when the writing was on the wall. They used to have a reddit admin in their pocket but when they gravy train ran out and Trump got elected they all moved on to various other whiny subreddits like FuckTheAltRight and AgainstHateSubreddits and other echo chamber safe spaces where they could flail ineffectively.

Source your quotes.

There have been two things worth dealing with reddits horrible format for. The first was that coot with two wangers and the second was the necromunda rules.

Double dick dude turned out to be a fake. Every time he shared new pictures it was bigger until he had like two feet of collective dick.

My favorite one in the harry potter reddit is to suggest that snape was not a sympathetic character at all and was in fact a creepy dick with no redeeming qualities. It's extremely transparent why redditors in particular are so obsessed with that character which adds an extra layer of humor while you watch yourself get downvoted into oblivion.

I missed all that. Why do they obsess over him?

Also post in the walking dead Reddit that the series just keeps getting better and better.

Every time I go to a bigger reddit it's like the comments are so far removed from the topic and they are impossible to navigate. I go to small niche ones like netrunner or magic cards, or shoes. Those are ok and bearable.

In 2015 Reddit had a female CEO who was suspected of being a SJW and the rage was so vocal that several media outlets picked up on it and she was forced to resign.

In 2018 Reddit literally has several active racist hate groups infiltrated by Russians that create fake news and spread it around the internet and everyone's all like :shrug:

In the spring of 2017, I was at a Reddit meetup in Seattle and had an opportunity to meet The Guy Who Does the Hydraulic Press Videos on Youtube. He was extremely charming and confident, freely passing around his phone so that we could all watch previews of his upcoming (and premium) web series.

As the night went on, we eventually found ourselves alone at a corner booth in a skeevy bar we had all gone out to drink at. I had told him about my own personal passion for using large devices to crush random, everyday objects and had also told him I was working to save towards buying my own hydraulic press. I mentioned that I had been trying to find someone to guide and instruct me in the operation of one but to no avail. I was new to the community and had not yet met many people who could or would help me.

To be honest, I was a little buzzed. I had been served one and a half Sex on the Beaches (both of which The Guy Who Does the Hydraulic Press Videos on Youtube had ordered for me - a red flag, I know) and in that state, I think he was able to pick up on just how lonely and vulnerable I truly was.

He offered to take me over to his hotel room and let me try out his portable hydraulic press prototype. I was initially hesitant but relented as he assured me that his safety procedures were impeccable and that it would be a relaxing, chill experience. I remember very specifically, he kept saying "Crushing makes you feel good" over and over. It was very persuasive.

When we arrived at his hotel room, he immediately began plying me with CBD gummies and green tea. It was nauseating and disorienting, but I accepted them so as not to seem rude.

His "portable hydraulic press" was nothing more than a hammer with silver duct tape around the handle and a couple of caution stickers. This is when I began to realize something wasn't right.

I remember him calibrating the "hydraulic press" using several large, wooden cubes. He kept calling them his "cubies". It makes me sick to even think about it.

He then set up a camera and retrieved several VHS copies of The Sweet Hereafter, which is a good enough film not necessarily worthy of crushing. I told him this. Several times. I also told him that I was currently into watching another YouTube channel's VHS obliteration videos and that this felt weird. He didn't care.

He crushed them while I watched. Half drunk. Half delirious with a cocktail of CBD oil and caffeine. I felt like I couldn't breathe, couldn't move. I have never been more afraid or disgusted in my life.

If a hotel employee hadn't arrived to investigate the noise, I don't know what else he may have crushed or what else may have happened between us. I took an uber, something I really didn't have the money for, back to my own hotel and wept.

Seeing a video of him crushing a Furby and a block of Lego bricks a couple of weeks later, I decided I could no longer stay silent. I posted about our encounter and was banned from one subreddit after another. r/seattle, r/videos, r/letsnotmeet... all toxic environments looking to quiet the violated.

Reddit is a garbage place full of garbage people.
