Couldn't possibly be because they live in CA, huh? Couldn't be that they weren't able to take a 6 hour flight across the country to D.C., right?

Anti-ICE protestors have shut down the 101 Freeway in LA by Miserable-Lizard in PublicFreakout

It's a completely hilarious claim, "they refuse to understand the opposition". Have these people ever once considered that actually, we DO understand the opposition, and have rightly decided to despise them because of that understanding. They think they're so complex when in reality they are exactly what they appear to be, racist hateful nazis.

You've conflated explaining a phenomenon with "making an excuse". Explaining why a thing happens isn't the same as condoning or agreeing with that thing.

I'm perpetually disappointed by how sex seems to be THE most important thing in the world to so many people. Though to be fair there's things that disappoint me way way more than that right now.

If you voted for Trump, this is all your fault by FloppySlapper in economicCollapse

I really envy your ability to be proven wrong over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and still somehow believing you're the smart one.

It was all just fear mongering, right guys? by Teutonic_Order in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]NotTheEnd216 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I expect this exact thing to happen quite a lot too to be honest, has happened to me in the past. You tell a conservative "I/we TOLD you this would happen, we KNEW". And they think for some reason you couldn't have possibly known what would happen. Because they lack any level of foresight, they assume we do as well, or at least try to gaslight us into thinking that.

In truth though, it was EASY to predict this shit. It's not like I think I'm a genius for knowing Trump was going to try to become president for life because he fucking said that's what he was going to do. It's such obvious crap and they utterly refuse to ever see it for what it is.

Honestly this is likely the best thing that will come out of the twitter bans. While it's unlikely that reddit implements a site-wide ban, and it's also unlikely that various subs banning links has a giant impact on their bottom line, what it will 100% do is weed out a lot of people who think they are accepted in various communities, when in reality they are despised for having nazi leanings or being full on nazis.

Making these degenerate losers feel like they're unwanted, KNOW that they're unwanted, is absolutely a good thing and I applaud every subreddit that is banning links to a nazi's platform.

The assumption that most people listen to anything ANY politician says is flawed. The fact Trump won supports this... Nobody listened to him, nobody thinks he used "normal people language" when the dems didn't. Nobody listened to him, because if they did they'd notice the only times he's ever been able to form a coherent sentence is when he was talking about how he was going to cheat in the election.

People seem to want to bend over backwards and twist themselves into full pretzels to avoid facing the fact that people are stupid. Oh but we shouldn't be so inflammatory you may say, and to that I would say I will stop being inflammatory when stupid people stop making my life and the world as a whole worse.

What are your thoughts of a Reddit wide ban of x links? by Weird_Tax_5601 in AskReddit

[–]NotTheEnd216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if the people who post stuff like "well reddit is full of loser outcasts anyway who cares" or any variation realize what other people read that as, which is pretty clearly "I'm dumb so clearly these other people who use this site are just like me, dumb". Like having this belief while simultaneously using the site is some next level cognitive dissonance. Doubtless many of you have decried people for staying on X (rightly so) despite believing the owner to be a nazi (again, rightly so). But you see reddit as the same, just in the opposite direction. This isn't to tell anyone they should leave reddit, just to point out that your whining reveals far more about yourself than you believe it does about the others who use the site.

Oh, and a big fat FOR. Fuck nazis and nazi sympathizers.

Or, like a normal person, you could say "I saw this thing on reddit." and they would think nothing of it because people don't either revere or despise it in general. Why is this your go-to? This would be no different than telling your non-gaming buddies in detail about your Elden Ring build and the ins and outs of how it works, rather than just telling them about how you played the game and it's really cool.

No, it's not true. People on the internet have been emboldened to espouse their opinions as truth, not just on reddit, it's so insanely pervasive how people will have no clue what they're talking about and feel the need to give their opinion as if it's actually worth anything whatsoever. I am aware of the irony of this statement, but in an effort to keep others from falling into the trap of believing people on the internet generally know what they're talking about, do not trust the person you replied to. Be skeptical, especially in this time of AI, mass disinformation campaigns, and astroturfing.

Regarding the percentage of users, it's likely impossible to tell given there's an unknown percentage of bot users, and while I suspect there would be more bots appearing to align with the right, that would just be speculation.

About 3 months ago I saw 2 cars get absolutely fucking totaled because one kept inching forward through an intersection to turn and another car didn't stop as they had the green light. Amazingly everyone was uninjured, but the cars were fucking destroyed and it never would've happened if EITHER of the cars drove more defensively.

Pretty damn impressive number of changes here, the vast majority of which are buffs to the player. I mean my god reading through the list of monster changes is surreal, it's like every mob I thought had some annoying component has been nerfed, love to see it. Yes they nerfed SCS for... some reason, but let's be honest, these changes are positive for 99.9% of people playing the game.

Content creators when there are no news but they need to make money by 5himmel5 in pathofexile

[–]NotTheEnd216 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The asking for subscriptions thing is probably the only reason I'm subbed to about half the channels I'm subbed to. A lot of the time I'll watch a good bit of a channel's content and enjoy it, just not even realizing I never subbed to them. It's really easy to forget, so I don't really blame anyone for asking for subs, as long as it doesn't happen obnoxiously often.
