I found your website named after a cryptocurrency company and something doesn’t add up. There’s no cryptocurrency here for me to short and everyone keeps posting comments about how they want to get a footjob from karl marx or reenact WACO on their landlord or whatever

Why aren’t you on reddit like normal people? this website is basically a malshappen clone of the real thing, like dolly the sheep but online and with even more birth defects

actually, this site was made as a life-raft after youtube let channels disable comments and hid the dislike integer

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (6 children)

that would explain why there is no option on here for me to dislike your comment. I’m not saying that I would dislike your comment (for the record), but options are nice and it would be comforting to know I could if I wanted. I’m a committed consumer and a lack of choices gives me anxiety

we're working on technology for a downvote button but unfortunately it's still in beta and won't be released until Q4 2025 at the earliest.

Until then you'll have to manually downvote :downbear:

please use it sparingly though because these are in short supply and we need them to last until the button release

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Unfortunately the site is under US sanctions for supporting trade with Iran so we don't have the resources to research downvotes yet.

Look at our emotes, we have too many with probably a third of them being nonsensically named. :maxwell:, :epstein:, :trump-moist:, and :billionaire-tears: are appropriately named however. There's also a little fun game you can play with those people and guess what they have in common.

they're all dead?

Oh Reddit got mad that we said it was morally OK to kill slave owners

This is not a parody that's literally why we are here

wow! can’t believe there’s someone else here who also loves spaceships and NASA: how do you feel about male circumcision? That’s really the only final frontier I think any self respecting man should be focused on these days when they’re not bouncing on their boys D

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

nasa = nazis and male circumcision is a conspiracy by big cereal to trick people into eating BORING NERD shit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This is all closer to true than I'd like

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

NVM this makes a lot of sense

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

after reading many conflicting answers, pretty sure y’all are some kind of gay communist death cult. remember to take your vaccines, steel fuel can’t melt jet beams, and it’s not offensive to dress up as the dead queen because the real queen died in 1997 during a horrible car accident.

we left reddit because they wouldn't let us be gay with our dads

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

also I smoked a brick of salvia before posting this so hopefully I make sense and the dragons in the cradle in the silver spoon little boy blue and the devil in the moon when I’m killing god son I don’t know when but we’ll get the feather then dad you know we’ll find her emails then

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Salvia is weak shit. Smoke DMT like an adult.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I would but joe rogan stole all of my lucky charms and has been chronically boofing all the DMT so there’s none left for the rest of us

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Simply make your own.

Its literally simpler than bathtub meth

:this: new tagline

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

no joke, we got banned on reddit for celebrating John Brown and saying slave owners deserve death

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

i like it when the feds i'm interacting with are nice in hopes that i'll do some [redacted] instead of just trying to manufacture consent to invade ~~Russia~~ ~~DPRK~~ ~~China~~ Haiti

I nominate this for the front page header.

This was post suspiciously funnier than the usual post and of course when I look who posted it it's you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Sup Eric, everyone here a is huge fan of your show and I for one am delighted that you'd visit our deformed sheep home.

As to the reason we aren't on Reddit they banned us after we joked about killing white supremacists. Apparently, Reddit loves it when you call for the death of the entire Chinese population, but gets upset when you joke about putting slave owners in guillotines.

Anyway, have you seen Reddit lately? Our site may smell like Dolly the sheep's latest dump, but at least it isn't selling me insurance or pushing a broken app on me every five seconds.

spoilerThis is a great bit btw

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

We were disinvited from reddit on account of making advertisers and feds uncomfortable, so we made our own instance of reddit. Now we have complete freedom but the website doesn't always load so fast :(

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

what the fuck is reddit?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

They figured out we all operate on Moscow time and banned us

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I dunno I think we got banned at the same time as the Donald Trump subreddit so that Reddit could do a "both sides" thing.

If you want to get really parasocial or whatever I think this website has spawned like 50 different discord groups or something.

:alex-aware: me raising my snout from the trough labeled "podcast"

:feral-hog: and descending it into the one marked "salvia"

Because I can't say that Spez wants to own slaves or that slave owners should all be killed on reddit. We can here, as well as talking about all the other things socialists want to talk about that reddit would shut right the fuck down.

Can't even call someone names over there without some liberal moderator tone-policing you because you don't speak in a middle-income enough way for them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah they're a bunch of psycho crackers, but so are our fellow citizens; this site is like a mini green room.
