I did too but noped out pretty quickly. It’s shitty because it does seem like there’s genuinely good people over there, but conversations there tend to get derailed and so wrapped up in liberal talking points, you can see the brain rot forming in real time.

I’m feeling a kind of way about it right now. I used to spend a lot of time on Reddit, and I’d usually form an opinion on something by reading a lot of the comments and trying to synthesize my own opinion by creating an amalgamation of it all. I feel like this must have worked to some degree because I actually started my radicalization over there. I’m not sure if Reddit became worse over time, but now I can barely stand it there. Maybe I’ve just gotten better at parsing bullshit and realized just how much of it there actually is, idk.

But I guess I feel two ways about it because if I got radicalized over there, then perhaps others can too. I personally don’t have the patience to wade through the bullshit anymore, but I also kinda hope people keep fighting the good fight over there.
