Lobotomized by politics on reddit

submitted by jaarrrtttt from self.Introductions

So done with pretentious liberal wisecrack college kids masturbating to their own imagined intellectually superior selves, infecting every non-political sub with their semen and akshualyyy-ing every conservative opinion with their affectations. I have lost so many brain folds being on there that I keep forgetting I am not even American and do not need to give a fuck about their politics. But it's really hard when every corner of that dogeshit site is drenched in their ass vomit.

Looking to saidit for a relaxed and non-toxic environment in which non-political subs can be free from perpetual liberal activism and Dump bashing.

If you need a reminder that there are dumb cunts on the right as well, you've come to the right place. Well, Gab to really drive the point home, but this will definitely work.

You may find non-politics subs fairly free of politics though.

At least here it feels more like sporadic idiots with their own unique blend of conspiracy theories. On reddit, it feels more like hordes of zombies all repeating the same narrative.

Sporadic? The right-wing conspiracy shit is constant. I can't even recommend Saidit to my friends that don't like Reddit, because the conspiracy theorists have even more of a presence on here than the liberals do on Reddit.

muh conspiracy theorists! why can't they just accept the government propaganda? ಡ﹏ಡ

The mental gymnastics you have to accomplish to think the massive progressive dogma groupthink on reddit and the extremely various, differing, and at times horrifying opinions here is amazing.

Conspiracy theorists at least think, and somewhat reason. You can even attempt to hold a conversation and there exists the possibility you can change their mind.

Redditors, a good 95% of them are generally stupid, literally. There are a few, between 5 and 10% who are smart and highly indoctrinated or agenda driven, and they generally give the masses their narrative and taking points.

It's the very reason, that unless you're chatting with one of the 5%ers, it's quite possible you will have more success relieving a headache by staring at The sun while dancing circus monkeys slap symbols by your ears.

The truth of it is, liars and cheats like conspiracy theorists are bad. But not even closeto being as dangerous to the Republic or to you as individuals as the stupid.

Progressivism is not the problem. Fake-progressivism is.

Nothing is authentic nor progressive about the Regressive Democrat propaganda infesting corporate interwebs.

Don't mistake the old-left for the CIA/corporatocracy's New And Improved Far Left™, now with bacon-flavoured BLM and sweet-loving SJWs loaded with fat trans sprinkles.

To swallow it makes most folks gag, but some people bend over, take it deep, and virtue signal.

[–]JasonCarswell 9 insightful - 3 fun9 insightful - 2 fun10 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Maybe there's truth in them thar conspiracies. Try being skeptical instead of obeying the lying legacy media and exploitative governments and "experts".

Why do you hang out here since when you dislike it?

Citation needed (LOL).

There are more fakeliberals on 1 average reddit sub than far righters on all of saidit.

[–]madcow-5 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Yeah, wtf.. Saidit's loaded with conspiracy theorists; but no, even if a third the people on saidit are conspiracy theorists, this doesn't compare to the 85%+ of reddit being progressive leftists, and the remaining 15% being normies who go along with the progressive crap.

[–]noice 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun -  (3 children)

But we love you Fedi!

[–]JasonCarswell 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

I opt out.

[–]FediNetizen 1 insightful - 3 fun1 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

And I love you, random Saidit user!

It's a love born out of pity, Mr. Snopes.

Its okay to wear a mask. There you go

Welcome. Most stuff lands here first these days. Gets posted over from one of the chans.

Occasionally a new vid will pop up on r/conservatives, but saidit usually has the new shit first.

Glad u made it here. Find all the subs you want to subscribe to by viewing all subs in the search.- you can probably go ahead and delete every single sub that they auto enrolled you in. Most of them are dead and empty.

C u around

eeek. good luck. Non political content is pretty well contained, but the site is flooded with politics, and the leftists are starting to come here in droves.

but... no downvotes, so post quality content and the site stays sane.

[–][deleted] 11 insightful - 3 fun11 insightful - 2 fun12 insightful - 3 fun -  (4 children)

leftists are starting to come here in droves.

Left and right alike are getting banned for wrongthink. There's like a whole terf/feminism/lesbian section to saidit that I hardly ever visit because I know at least in the lesbian sub they don't want dudes commenting, which makes rather a bit of sense.

[–]madcow-5 8 insightful - 7 fun8 insightful - 6 fun9 insightful - 7 fun -  (2 children)

The terf's are a trip to talk to. They seem based and make a lot of sense, then if the topic drifts off transpeople, you realize they're still hate-filled feminists.

Sometimes the enemy of my enemy is also my enemy. See: The Soviet Union v. Nazi Germany

This. I am pretty left wing on many things, but no way do I associate myself with the american left. There's only black and white to those people.

That said the nature of this site is to accept reddit refugees - who became such due to their political views - so would be hard to avoid politics here.

[–]wecandobetter 8 insightful - 4 fun8 insightful - 3 fun9 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

Welcome!

[–]madcow-5 8 insightful - 3 fun8 insightful - 2 fun9 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

Even the supposed apolitical content on reddit seems to be all politically motivated now.

[–]redditbegay 8 insightful - 2 fun8 insightful - 1 fun9 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Im so tired of every sub being some dig against trump and building up Biden. The dude is a liar too, but they like it because MSM tells them to.

[–]ArthnoldManacatsaman 3 insightful - 8 fun3 insightful - 7 fun4 insightful - 8 fun -  (4 children)

Well I hope you hate the Jew and believe Bill Gates invented autism, because that's what you'll find over here on Saidit.

[–][deleted] 8 insightful - 4 fun8 insightful - 3 fun9 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

Bill Gates is still a fucking asshole though. As much as people hate on Soros they seem to be totally blind to how much of a pile of shit the guy is.

[–][deleted] 7 insightful - 5 fun7 insightful - 4 fun8 insightful - 5 fun -  (0 children)

one of those is true tho

[–]BigFatRetard 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

Groupthink is bad, whatever it is.

That said, seeing opinions you disagree with isn't necessarily groupthink. It might just mean that you've finally escaped yours.

[–]ArthnoldManacatsaman 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

Oh absolutely. I don't begrudge anyone having these opinions and having an online platform where they can discuss them. I don't personally believe even a tenth of the perfidious bullshit that gets thrown around on this website, so I don't join in, but I completely support the right to hold and discuss these beliefs.

[–]FediNetizen 4 insightful - 3 fun4 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 3 fun -  (18 children)

Saidit isn't much better in that regard. Instead of "liberal activism" in non-political subs, it's constant conspiracy theories

[–]Zahn 9 insightful - 9 fun9 insightful - 8 fun10 insightful - 9 fun -  (11 children)

Says the guy who posts in /s/gendercritical trying to pick up girls.

[–][deleted] 7 insightful - 6 fun7 insightful - 5 fun8 insightful - 6 fun -  (7 children)

If you try to pick-up girls on the internet, you have one or more problems.

[–]JasonCarswell 6 insightful - 6 fun6 insightful - 5 fun7 insightful - 6 fun -  (1 child)

Just one?

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun -  (0 children)

Edited post accordingly.

[–]Comatoast 3 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 3 fun -  (4 children)

It works though. People end up in relationships by meeting on the internet hellscape all the time.

[–][deleted] 3 insightful - 5 fun3 insightful - 4 fun4 insightful - 5 fun -  (3 children)

Not good relationships, and by conservative definitions: not even relationships at all — but merely a false impersonation!

[–]Comatoast 2 insightful - 3 fun2 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 3 fun -  (2 children)

I can't really agree. Maybe it's because of growing up on the internet, or maybe it's because I find it easier to socialize with others on it without limiting my opinions, but I find it far easier to develop quality conversations via the internet. Before the Tinder era, people were successfully getting married through internet dating all the time.

[–][deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

You can meet someone through the internet, but if your entire relationships exists solely within it, it's not a real relationship.

Because the dude at the other end is Pinocchio.

4 months and he mods 4 subs already, subreddiot SUPERMOD confirmed

[–]JasonCarswell 7 insightful - 5 fun7 insightful - 4 fun8 insightful - 5 fun -  (5 children)

Because conspiracies never happen. /s

[–]Comatoast 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (4 children)

Had a guy yesterday tell me how he some intelligent dude he follows said only 1/10 conspiracies are real. Must be true cause numbers right?!

[–]JasonCarswell 5 insightful - 3 fun5 insightful - 2 fun6 insightful - 3 fun -  (3 children)

Depends on the field being analysed. I'd say 98% of all political/economic/media/control conspiracies have at least a foot in the truth and are hiding much more. The BigFoot, UFO, and Flat Earth stuff, among others, is certainly there to discredit all conspiracies. All systems are rigged and corrupt and always favour the ruling class. That's not a coincidence.

[–]Comatoast 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (1 child)

I was just being facetious, Jason. It was actually pretty weird listening to him, the total lack of wanting to question anything. It was after he asked what I thought on the election, then he brought up how ridiculous people are being about voter fraud and that it's not a conspiracy, etc.

[–]JasonCarswell 4 insightful - 2 fun4 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

I have a neighbour or few like that, also not recognizing vote rigging, telling me Biden is better than Trump as if there's a difference in much of anything. He doesn't even know what a deep state is.

Folks can't seem to join all the threads together: perpetual lying, perpetual wars, perpetual excuses why we aren't allowed to be free, have a say in things, fair jobs, justice, proper health care, etc. None of it is coincidence.

[–]redditbegay 2 insightful - 4 fun2 insightful - 3 fun3 insightful - 4 fun -  (0 children)

Ugh, nice conspiracy theory posts, I know you're full of shit because CNN told me that conspiracies don't exist. 🤔🤔 🤔

from perpetual liberal activism

Neoliberal is not liberalism.

I understand your frustration with reddit. Welcome and enjoy your stay!

There is no discussion on Plebbit, only group think. Congrats on leaving that cesspool.
