  • In the world of the "multi screen experience", people just want background noise that they can look up and smirk at once in a while.

    On the other hand, I like watching cs2 highlights when I can't catch the game, but there are uploaders who automate the editing ("just show 1-second before and after each death from shooter's pov") and very quickly I can tell that it wasn't edited by a person because there is no flow or narrative of the pace of the match. Just "kill 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, round end, next round, kill 1" etc.










  • In addition to what everyone else said, which is basically right, I suspect that reddit has thorough data and research tracking how topics are discussed en-masse and how narratives form across the site. I would wager that we were visible enough to actually make a dent in the liberal centrist "hive mind" and they had an incentive to snuff us out before our ideas started to affect the general vibes of the place by providing coherent, popular, and catchy anti-capitalist and anti-American sentiments

    I remember my pinko college history professor saying Stalin got his start in the seminary before politics and that when the wehrmacht was approaching Moscow and people were in a panic, one of the first things Stalin did was open the churches. I don't feel like trying to look that up, but I heard it once 18 years ago
