One of the worst reddit-logo posts I’ve ever seen. I lost brain cells reading this and now I have to subject you all to the same.

CWs: transphobia, zionism, actual genocide denial, never-before-seen levels of liberalism, mentions of sexual assault, antisemitism

Some highlights:

"Man, isn’t it depressing that people are interested in engaging with politics beyond vote "

This next one’s a banger. We’ve got someone literally saying “Every trans rights in America is thanks to the democrats”, and thinking that the ballot box is the only way to effect change

"Why won’t you answer my contrived question that is framed in a way to make it seem like these are the only two possibilities??? Huh??? morshupls "

“All Russians know how to do is commit sexual assault, steal, and genocide”

"it’d take isntrael 30 years at this rate to kill all the Gazans, and Putler’s doing a worse genocide in ukkkraine "

“Russia is the only empire, don’t look too close at nato-cool. Also the only difference between Russia and Israel is that Israel is Jewish.”

“I mean, as stupid and flawed america has been and currently is now, for now at least, there isn’t censorship that detains or silences you if you talk shit to the government”

“Also TERFs are nowhere near the level of Nazis/tankies, that’s a crazy comparison”

“Trump is better than Putin, Stalin, Mao” - an Israeli-born zionist

    i’m tentatively starting to feel like this and the other “political” subs are heavily astroturfed. not close to a majority of commenters, but enough to get the libs to feel comfortable in their inherent superiority over everyone else. you go to a lot of the “non-political” subreddits and people aren’t nearly as smug and self-assured in their chauvinism. sometimes they even say some pretty cool stuff. then again, it is surprising to see a drama community online that isn’t filled with out-and-proud nazis
