can't remember the dude but i was looking at a profile for someone who was basically calling for glassing china and they were a regular /r/wholesomememes poster :so-true:

reddit wholesomeness is definitely more cynical than people just wanting to have a good time. it feels like a lot of it is them trying to convince themselves things aren't as bad as they are, not exactly a bad thing, but it makes it feel inauthentic.
