Not that it really matters, it's just rediculous how willing people are to be told what to think without even seeking background information.

*edited title to reflect that it's several sub-reddits, not reddit itself

Is it Reddit or one or more individual sub-Reddits? As you allude to context matters.

You are correct to it being many sub-reddits. I'll adjust the post.

Ive tried hard to leverage that app at the sub reddit level for DIY and for tracking various different things but the rot there is so deep that daring to point out on an MLB subreddit that the major leagues and all the agents post their announcements on X will get you ratio'd via bots and banned.

Its not a viable platform for anyone who doesnt post on democratic underground at this point and they're extremely salty at the moment about the election so they've taken it up to 11 with the brigading.

It’s very funny how Reddit went from worshipping Elon like 5 years ago to treating him like hitler2.0

The thing about the progressive bubble, the more bizarre and victimized you are, the higher your status.

I really just wanted to leverage the topic to ask why people are so quick to react to things they hear without doing even a little bit of investigating.

I love watching weak minded people like you succumb to a phony/contrived / orchestrated moral panic. So profoundly moronic. If every wave “ from my heart” means “ Seig Heil “ just because you want to slur a guy, you might be a dishonest douche canoe.

Damn hadn't noticed that. I generally post x links on the stros sub reddit but if it's gonna get me banned I'll think twice before I do that.

He was obviously just excited about the crowd. Even the ADL understands this was just an awkward wave.

Reddit is not a monolithic entity there are about 150,000 active subreddits and some ridiculous number like 3 million total. Most of them have practically zero political discussion and many actually ban it to prevent discussions from going off the rails. I am not a fan of Reddits layout and the general way it functions but there are hundreds of excellent subject matter forums for everyone that is dominated by unhinged political frickery.
