Every time I start reading comments on reddit, it's just infuriating. It's like designed to be infuriating and as inflammatory as possible, so no real discussions of substance can take place. Just dumb jokes, and half-truths stated with the highest confidence. The shills and bots (and people swept up in it without realizing it's fake) have completely supplanted any real information or culture that used to exist on the website. Compared to how it was in the Aaron Swartz days it's upsetting, it's like visiting your childhood home and seeing that it has burned to the ground.

    Thanks. I have been doing the same, except I'm watching 80s and 90s tv. Even serious shows from the 80s have this goofy happy vibe underneath that is just missing from media now. Lots of media now seems to be competing to see who can be the darkest and most disgusting, it's exhausting and hard to relate to anymore. 80s/90s tv seems so innocent and fun by comparison, while still being entertaining.

        Oh, you're confused. Lol. Why are the Jews more powerful than you?

        Honestly, it is clear Jewish Zionists and teh CIa own the media. It's the fault of the American for watching their monolith all day.

        I kind of feel the opposite, things are too silly and sanitized now, because of the new puritan sjws. Things that are R rated now don't even feel very edgy like they were in the 80s or 90s. Everything is homogenized and diluted so as not to offend.
