I just checked it for the first time in ages and we've got:

  • /r/WinStupidPrizes
  • /r/Cringetopia
  • /r/JusticeServed
  • /r/IdiotsInCars
  • /r/facepalm
  • /r/PublicFreakout
  • /r/TIHI (Thanks I Hate It)
  • Some guy celebrating his divorce with a selfie featuring his miserable looking ex wife
  • And of course some gaming stuff

At what point did Reddit become so obsessed with finding people to recreationally get mad at? It's like a majority of the front page content. Terrible vibes.

    After fatpeoplehate came tumblrinaction and all the "inaction" subreddits.

    The hate subs grew from there.

    /r/againsthatesubreddits doesn't focus on any of them though, because it is an entirely neoliberal project that just seeks to run a large subreddit that they can weaponise for political ends.

      I always think it's funny that againsthatesubreddits is literally a hate subreddit. I don't mind hating the right people. The irony is just funny, in a holier than thou kind of way. Fucking libs, just say you hate chuds lmao.

      Are those intended to be "inaction" or "in action?" I never really spent enough time on subs like that to understand what they were for.
