So… a bunch of hateful, ignorant jerks are going to be even more obnoxious than usual? And they think that’s a good thing?
If the blackouts aren’t enough to drive people away, this will. Congratulations, reddit! You’re getting the user base you deserve!
Yep, seeing /r/conservative at the top or /r/all was enough to convince me to just close Reddit completely.
Yep. Flashbacks to the time /r/the_donald shitposts covered the front page. What a horrible time
I was hoping to see it brigaded a ton but unfortunately a quick peek confirms they are just posting some vile anti LGBTQ+ crap.
Par for the course.
Posts like that actually deserve to be brigaded, but nobody wants to throw rocks at the hornet’s nest. Honestly, I can’t blame people for avoiding and ignoring that cesspool.
