SNOOcalypse - document, discuss, and promote the downfall of Reddit.

[Speaking as a mod] Given the topic I'll be monitoring this thread carefully. As such, if anyone here is eager to either promote fascism (rule #1) or witch hunt (to point fingers towards other users based on assumptions or faulty reasoning - rule #1, rule #4): don't. Also remember that the topic of this community is Reddit, there's a lot of leeway for non-divisive off-topic but please don't go overboard.

And if anyone here has concerns that some other user is doing either thing, please use the report button, OK?

Yeah it's normal. Reddit is a full on nazi bar with frequent fashbaiting. Sometimes i'll check on my inbox to see if I got any notifications and it's always some random assblasted fascist responding absolutely unhinged shit to a post I made a long ass time ago. I stopped getting them because i've been off for long enough that my posts are starting to become archived, so I don't even bother to check anymore.

I laughed when I saw the pic. I imagined a neckbeard with glowing eyes thinking to himself “they’re gonna love that MY grandma knew hitler, it’s almost like I knew him”

[Speaking as a user] Yeah, it looks inorganic for me too. As another user said the gold trim signals that the post was gilded, gilding nowadays works like a "mega-upvote" and gives it that trim. It's possible that defenders of the Jewish genocide (Holocaust) and of the Palestinian genocide (the ongoing war) are dumping money in those posts, to promote their shitty discourses.

And that works really well in Reddit because the userbase there loves some oversimplification: they have a really hard time decoupling the Jewish people from the State of Israel.

The gold trim is because the post got some kind of award (or whatever they’re called now).

Considering I’ve seen blatant racism on the front page with thousands of upvotes, I think that second post is pretty fitting for what reddit has become.
