I got banned from Reddit a couple of days before the war in Ukraine started and I don't miss it in the slightest. The place is looking more and more like a heavily controlled and censored botfarm every day, with all of forms of dissent being deleted by admins and powermods. I bet half of the posts there nowadays aren't even generated by actual humans anymore, but just AI being used by the powers that be to manipulate the population towards their current agenda.

Worst fucking social media. Never helpful in the slightest. Least funny with their repetitive jokes and deadpan humor. 99% of the user base is always extremely passive aggressive and constantly trying to find reasons to argue with each other with their superiority complex.

I wake up everyday thanking the lord himself for not making me a Reddit mod. I may be an incel but at least I don’t go to sleep every night knowing well that I have to wake up tomorrow and waste my time monitoring random strangers and not get paid for it.

American websites are total ass. I'd actually prefer what they had in china. You can't criticize the government but they don't mess with what you do in your free time.

China is fucked up. Social credit system actually got your ass even in your free time. This can be so bad, so you can't buy a plane ticket or get a job BECAUSE you don't have enough brownie points (that government has monopoly for). Modern chinese culture is broken. Copy of a copy of a foreign pop shit. It's just pathetic too see. It calms me down when I know that so strong and aggresive dictatorship country can't produce anything that can be considered as art.

I talked to chinese guys (mostly students). They live in some sort of parallel universe where AMERICA/EUROPE BAD and CHINA/RUSSIA/NORTH KOREA GOOD. Why? Because in US/EU all your money will go to jews, you live at the brink of poverty, you'll die of starvation and can't fix it UNTIL you accept chinese version of communism. They have only socialist/capitalist countries. When I said that Russia doesn't fit either of these terms there were really surprised.

Bro what the fuck are you talking about we have a social credit system in the west and it's way fucking worse. At least the chinese can say nigger online and not worry about getting fired which is a huge freedom that we don't have. Say something about roasties? Fired. Social outcast. Your life is done. No more internet for you.

China has their "list of bad words" too, but that list is everywhere. You won't be just banned, but fined and/or prisoned. Slightly similar in Russia - if you don't like the war/criticize putin/government you'll be fired (from the state job, while state is about 75% of jobs here)/swatted. I heard that in the west only people that "sell their faces" (media/entertainment) should be scared of this. I'm ok with this, they're normies, fuck them, you're not in prison at least.

Lol, I never ever had Twitter, Instagram and TikTok. I was on reddit just when incel subs were there and when I was in mood to harrass someone.

No reason to go there at all.

Good move.

Bro one tip I have is to get slower internet connection. It will make addictive sites much less so, and if you have to wait 5 seconds to load a page it's enough time for brain to kick in and stop the folly. There are programs that can do it.
