I deleted Reddit from my home screen when the mods did the fake strike and I’ve mostly kept off of it since then, but in the past few weeks I’ve opened it out of boredom and holy God is it just a truly awful place. My only explanation is that it’s a window into the psyche of the American middle class email job worker and they’re so fucking brain rotten that it hurts to even look at.

I thought I was misremembering or that reddit logo was just a good meme, but that site really does represent the absolute worst of American liberalism. I don’t even have anything specific to say, I just need to scrape out the festering mass that a 15 minute scroll session there created in my brain.

    I think reddit is some sort of louche extraction machine by the archons while we’re stuck in samsara. Reddit is only suffering these days. I used to use an app that could filter out by sub, so I would never run across the emotionally draining posts (about 95% of them) and then all apps were banned, and it’s worse for my mental health than going at it without a condom.
