I deleted Reddit from my home screen when the mods did the fake strike and I've mostly kept off of it since then, but in the past few weeks I've opened it out of boredom and holy God is it just a truly awful place. My only explanation is that it's a window into the psyche of the American middle class email job worker and they're so fucking brain rotten that it hurts to even look at.

I thought I was misremembering or that reddit-logo was just a good meme, but that site really does represent the absolute worst of American liberalism. I don't even have anything specific to say, I just need to scrape out the festering mass that a 15 minute scroll session there created in my brain.

    I found a new, fairly specific sub that seemed pretty harmless yesterday, and being bored out of my mind at my job I decided to look thru some of the top all time

    I think the fifth or so post had a top comment of a mod asking people to not be racist and someone following that with a wikipedia entry about how all Chinese eat dogs and have a holiday for it and just so much unbridled racism sooooo...no, not just a meme
