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.

    It was worse about this before, lol. It used to mostly be cringe "SJWs", and other similar right-wing coded ragebait, with the occasional robber getting murdered video or story from /r/justiceserved

    I found it extremely disturbing one thread where everyone was fantasizing about what it must've been like for the robber to bleed out. Literally using their empathy muscles to imagine someone's last moments of suffering. Fuck that place.
