Oh, I definitely agree the newer left has hijacked many of the words and taking them to the extreme.

I will definitely peruse those threads you included. Thanks.

It got exposed a while back that a lot of their unique views came from an Air Force base with a population of only 2500 or so people. It's definitely a playground for intelligence agencies.

The war on language is a very real war that should be paid close attention to imo

Go in hard on George Carlin. "frick you, I'm not getting ON the plane, I'm getting IN the plane!" He taught me to pay very close attention to words. At least when I am not on mobile and don't have my readers.

Didn't reddit form when Digg went belly up?

Digg wasn't great, and it's astounding that Reddit didn't pay attention to what Digg did that led to it's downfall. But after 16-20, it was something that could afford to go woke and just sell all user data to not go broke. Training AI based on user content? GTFO. And none of them care.

this AI written BS is laughably off the mark

Reddit has been over run by AI bots for years, their unique user numbers are a joke

the only subreddits worth a damn are niche groups on specific subjects. I read the subreddits on my favorite pro sports teams and pop culture subjects and those are pretty good.

Left wing political comments are found in every sub-reddit in my experience.

You obviously don't spend much time in the firearms subs.

The owners of the site were lefties though and as it grew they got more media and political pressure to "clean up" the site. There were about 3 major purges over the past 10 years and each one pushed the site further left.


Did you know that Mr Epsteins wife Ghislaine Maxwell was a very active and popular moderator on Reddit.

Bet those lefties don't bring that up when bringing up Epstein
