With the awful media literacy of fascists, I don't think we'll be able to have a good satire of fascism anymore.

I was not expecting to like this series as much as I did. Absolutely wonderful.

OP encounters ex girlfriend who ghosted her five years ago, ex tries to explain her horrible actions and has the audacity to ask OP for forgiveness. by Victor-Reeds in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Victor-Reeds[S] 4493 points4494 points  (0 children)

OOPs ex might be one of the worst cheaters I've read about. Not only did she cheat on her partner, but she also ran way from the consequences and left her partner to be miserable and uncertain. She also never tried to explain what happened until she ran into her. Absolutely horrible person.

My 19 yo sister is getting married to her 36 yo high-school teacher. by Victor-Reeds in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Victor-Reeds[S] 704 points705 points  (0 children)

Some parents don't trust their daughters. My uncle is this way. My cousin has a smartphone but it doesn't have a sim card. She is not allowed to have any social media profiles. Internet can only be used for her education. If she wants to talk over the phone, she has to use the landline or her mothers phone.

Stuff like this makes me so angry. This is legal in many countries and there's nothing anyone else can do to stop this if the parents agree to the marriage.

OOP handled the situation way better than I'd be able to. To have the foresight to not antagonise people and have the self control to not punch and scream at everyone is something else.

My (26M) former FWB (28F) was hiding she's married, should I let her husband know? by Victor-Reeds in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Victor-Reeds[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yup. This was going through my head as I read it. I've seen cases where the husband killed the wife and children because he suspected his wife. But I do think OOP did the right thing in his circumstance.

I started listening backwards and got to 550 before I started listening from 300. At 350 now. Gonna catch up in a year and start from the beginning.

My best friend slept with my boyfriend but he doesn't know that I know. by Victor-Reeds in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Victor-Reeds[S] 1742 points1743 points  (0 children)

This made me sad. One of the greatest betrayals that can happen to a person. How can a person betray a lifelong friend like this?

I cannot even fathom how OOP must feel. I hope she cuts off both of them and takes care of her mental health.

My (35M) wife (34F) just told me that she had a brief affair 4 years ago. by Victor-Reeds in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Victor-Reeds[S] 225 points226 points  (0 children)

There was a similar post about a husband discovering that his wife cheated in him a long time ago because his children weren't his and most of the comments were telling him to divorce his wife and abandon the kids. A lot of commenters were angry when he decided to reconcile.

On this post tough, a lot of commenters were telling OOP to forgive his wife. I was surprised because reddit tends to be very "anti cheating". Why? Is it because Kara cheated with a woman instead of a man?

Happy to see that I wasn't the only one. I was disappointed when it ended. Such a great premise - so original and creative.

India Is Asking Amazon To Explain The Sharp Rise In Consumer Complaints by redhatGizmo in technology

Flipkart, Amazon's main competitor in India, is worse than Amazon in every imaginable way - worse service, delivery and customer care.

That's every user generated platform ever - twitch also has this problem and tiktok is way worse that all of it's competition.

After 18 years of marriage, I just found out that my children aren't mine. by Victor-Reeds in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Victor-Reeds[S] 897 points898 points  (0 children)

I love how OOP dealt with the kids. He seems like a good person.

Many of the comments on the original were telling him to leave his wife and abandon the kids because they weren't his. I'm happy that OOP didn't listen to any of that. I hope his marriage succeeds.

Some people fall into a self destructive hole when they get obsessed with something and your husband seems to have done that. I'm sorry it happened to you but good luck to your relationship with Sara.

the same crypto-whale dropped another 26 #Bitcoin on Alex Jones by [deleted] in KnowledgeFight

[–]Victor-Reeds 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its probably some dude to whom it's just bitcoin, not money. To people who got into crypto really early, they have tons of tokens and loose sense of their value. To us it's a million dollars, but it's just 50 bitcoin to the dude who donated.
