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 
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.
There’s like 5 subs I check on every now and then and none of them are mainstream. Reddit had been an astroturfed liberal hellscape for a while but I’m just completely done with it now. I think a lot of the big corporate sponsored social media is on life support, Reddit and twitter are destroying themselves, nobody cares about facebook/meta and everyone else has either moved on to smaller independent platforms or group chat. I hope this trend continues because relying on techbros and megacorps for a public forum of communication could never end well.
