I don't see people saying that.

Yes, even encouraged.

I think a lot of them do it on purpose because they know it will drive up engagement with people posting about the shitty titles.

Anyone else find it weird how it's not okay to be anti-semetic, but it's okay to be: anti-Chinese, anti-Russian, and anti-muslim?

Honestly looked like it was someones goal to turn it into what it looks like now.

Ding ding ding. Moderators have only become less impartial as time went on with reddit.

A public modlog is absolutely necessary to hold mods accountable, which is why reddit doesn't have one and none of the mods advocate for it.

I believe, wholeheartedly, that governments pay people to astroturf reddit.

They've gotten it down to a science at this point. Something I always notice now is people arguing against arguments that don't exist. They'll be like "I can't believe people are saying x" when nobody is actually saying x.

It's that kind of manufactured outrage, the kind that makes people feel like they're missing out, that causes them to pretend to understand what's going on in order to fit in.

It's sad and disgusting, but I don't even bother with reddit anymore. It's too obvious that everyone there is either a shill or an idiot.

Lemmy appears to have gotten all the high-quality posters that reddit used to be good for.

I dunno. This just seems like one of those stupid talking points that sounds clever on the surface but when you actually think about it, it's dumb as hell.

Like, are you really stupid enough to believe Hamas would sabotage any legitimate chance of getting Jews out of Israel because they prefer Gazans to be oppressed? Nah. They'd rather be in control of Israel.

Unfortunately, the snowball effect has already taken hold, so those who can't think for themselves will just parrot what you're saying without second thought in order to fit in.

Yeah. Watching white collar working get upset about AI is very eye-opening.

They legitimately believe that it's okay to replace blue-collar workers with automation, but not white-collar ones. They don't actually care about progress. They care about doing as little work as possible while making as much money as possible.

Pretty much the ruling class decided they'd be richer if more people bought guns, so guess what people did?

Where are you seeing these photos?

Reddit is a censorship hellhole.

There's so much secretive bullshit going on there it isn't worth taking seriously.

Having a public modlog is necessary to keep mods accountable.
