When I browse Reddit I always open it in a private window, because that website is cancer and I like to keep it contained. I have no interest in revisiting ironic “shit posts” or run-of-the-mill opinions from Reddit-dwelling incels. I was writing about Reddit on another website, commenting on the perverted mindset of basement dwelling degenerates on Reddit:

“Redditors are all ******. They talk about circle-jerks, hate-boners, and ass-holes. They are obsessed with erect penises and anuses. Truly warped people.”

reply:

reddit causes brain damage. (I can list them if interested) And as a result all nz reddit users that don’t get censored are extreme leftwing, porn addicted, losers. Angry and bitter but determined to ruin once new zealand.

I didn’t even mention pornography yet someone made the connection between Reddit users and pornography 😆 There are probably Reddit communities based around VR porn and there’s probably a whole community with thousands of active members, just to talk about what to do when a matchbox car gets parked where the sun don’t shine. And how to find an “open minded” doctor. Just normal heterosexual stuff you do with the normal wife, you know?

I’m trying not to complain about Reddit too hard, in all honesty, it’s pretty funny how screwed in the head people on Reddit are. I sometimes visit just to see what dumb opinions people have. Last time I checked /r/chch someone posted about Kyle Chapman’s arrest, and someone in the comments wrote that Kyle is an “angry incel” which is ironic because that’s the perfect description of these redditors. A bunch of craft beer, soy latte drinking, porn addicted virgins who will never get a woman pregnant. On the other hand, Kyle has 5 children (presumably to at least 3 different women) which is sick too, but still better than a lot of these redditors.

Kyle is a run-of-the-mill boomer as far as I’m concerned. Reddit says he’s a fascist but I don’t think Kyle has cared about politics or ideology for at least 12 years. Of course, on Reddit you get upvotes if you say that Christchurch is a Nazi city with a big “nationalist community”. I saw someone farming karma just 2 days ago.

The same ‘redditors’ believe that The Rob Gray Life Centre is some kind of secret fascist training centre. But if you go to (I think) the Barbadoes Steet intersection with Cashel, then walk east down Cashel, you’ll see the sign outside which says “Rob Gray Life Centre open today - everyone welcome”.

It’s not just the invisible fascist boogey-man that Reddit obsesses over, it’s also the secret Christian nationalists in Parliament. Apparently Christopher Luxon is a secret Christian nationalist who wants to bring in extreme religious laws, or something.

If I go on reddit and disagree with the secret Christian (or fascist) threat, then it’s guaranteed that the mods have a secret porn group on Discord where they hashtag my username and make secret notes about me, that I’m stirring up trouble, and causing offence (by disagreeing and providing information which contradicts the hive mind)

I have a problem with Reddit, because it’s bastion of weirdos where they are not exposed to anyone with different view points, and it’s been an echo-chamber for years now. There’s much talk about the ‘danger’ of X and what Musk has done to it, but it seems like his WEF adviser has come out against anti-semitism, and Musk is going to met Benjamin Netanyahu. I really doubt that Elon truly supports free speech. He’s a tricky guy who will change his mind on things and toy with the media and public figures. The scrutiny should be on Reddit. I think even if there was a child porn scandal involving /r/newzealand moderators, it probably wouldn’t cause an exodus of users. If a Reddit moderator was caught with thousands of images of naked 6 year old girls on their hard drive, the /r/newzealand community would probably raise money to defend them in court. I believe it’s that cohesive, basically like a cult where the moderators are highly venerated figures.

    You have a problem with reddit users and their content, so your solution is to use a different platform to spout the same kind of vitriol?

    If you want a different environment, cultivate it, don’t spread it here.
