Reddit is designed to make it easy to astroturf posts to the top because it's a psy op, simple as that

A kid here got shot in the back by a cop and a hundred accounts showed up on the local reddit to say he was no angel and deserved it, all of those accounts were deleted six months later

Reddit is just noise. That's all it is. Just static harnessed into a weaponized form.

It’s this. The way Reddit is setup is so infuriating. It’s impossible to follow the comments section with its asinine layout.

It's the point. Wrong-think can be downvoted into obscurity while right-think gets upvoted to be most prominent. It's why r/worldnews is always lock step in agreement with US interests. Worldnews being in the top 10 subs and where a lot of young people go for their only source of news. And you don't need so many agents astroturfing because users will happily do that for you once they realise they get upvoted for repeating the correct viewpoints. It becomes a self-regulating system.

I took a minivan full of 11yr olds to see it and they were exactly the target audience. We has a blast but also us and every other group in the theatre was chattering and whooping and hollering and booing bowser. I hadn't been to a movie in like 5 years so idk if that's normal or not but seemed like everyone was getting their $10 matinee's worth. The kids all immediately declared it their favorite movie of all time and spent hours afterwards one upping each other with easter eggs they noticed.

Definitely not a cinematic masterpiece tho.

This was my takeaway. We had the theater to ourselves until 2 minutes before the show started when a group of 6 people with 4 kids sat directly behind us. Why did they choose to sit directly behind us when the entire theater was empty otherwise? No clue. My wife and I moved down a few rows and the movie was quite fun. :v:
