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.

I have experience selling psychedelics, and some of the stories I’ve heard are pretty shocking.

Lol, okay buddy.

Sounds like they need to update their system.

Maybe it’s just me, but in the digital age I don’t think there’s an excuse for systems like this to be too difficult to change. Heck, if you designed it like an idiot, then you deserve to pay the costs to fix it.

I know Japan lives in the stone age when it comes to governing, but that’s simply not an excuse. Do better. Take money from your ruling class to fix these issues.

It’s do-able. Let’s get off our fucking hands and do it.

Japan is a very regressive nation.

Racism, classism, sexism, transphobia, xenophobia, you got it all in Japan and most of them are proud of it.

Yeah, seems like the kind of thing that would be upvoted way more on reddit.

Just like with the Ukraine-Russia war, both sides are going to be lying and we won’t have a clear picture of what’s going on for a long time.

Pretty much anyone who 100% believes one side is an idiot that doesn’t understand propaganda in war. I don’t think that’s most people, though.

That’s so fucking stupid.

The more I’m on the internet, the more I notice comments that start off like this are usually wrong and the poster is insecure.

Your arguments should be able to stand on their own merits. Insulting as though you’re already correct just makes you look weak and unsure of yourself.

As you get older, this becomes clearer.

This is so fucking moronic is makes my head hurt.

The more I’m on the internet, the more I notice comments that start off like this are usually wrong and the poster is insecure.

Glad we’re able to see it for what it is.

It looks like reddit is overtaken by zionist propaganda. Most of the upvoted posts on /r/worldnews are cheering for the murder of children.

Israel already killed more kids, on top of all the kids they killed this year, and they’re still killing more.

Nobody over there cares. I think that site is done.

Woah, is it only 100% or 0% in your mind?

To be fair, $65/month for gigabit fiber is pretty standard.

It’s what we got here in Southern Illinois, although I don’t use it.

you must 100% be aligned with the values of your new country.

Uh… no.

I’d be willing to take in Palestinian refugees, but the government does not represent my interests.
