    Not exactly fond of this line of attack. Brainworms? Sure. :stormfront:? Also sure. But using actual horrible diseases to dunk on Reddit seems to me to be in really poor taste.

    People don’t choose to get brain cancer, and it doesn’t automatically make them “dumb” or something like that. If I may invoke the slippery slope, I think this is a very small step away from just outright calling redditors the r-word.

      Agreed. There’s a lot of reddit logo there but OP’s post gets my downvote for this.

      I guess I shouldn’t be surprised this is being heavily upvoted on Lemmy.world (even though it’s literally just a smaller Reddit with less actually good communities)
