Was reddit at one point even a sane online platform for politics? literally i just jumped on r/politics to see how bad it truly was and the whole front page is evil alt right racist this, how ivanka sat at the g20, pointless hit pieces. Why is reddit like this?
>>
>>132896632
Yes. Real shit like articles about the NDAA and the Patriot Act used to be on the frontpage. (((They))) saw its popularity and decided to turn it into a propaganda farm.
>>
>>132896632
yeah it was at one point. However it has turned into the literal opposite of this site. Here the worst that will happen if you disagree is that you'll get called a faggot. There you'll get labeled a white supremacist.

Reddit is a place where anyone can make their own board and moderate it, so each bord gets its own culture. R/politics used to be an official board but was removed by admins from the defaults for political bias.
There are probably a million politics board - most of them left wing. Reddit admins are jews that hate right wingers.

I was on there 4 years ago and it was bad then but I just looked holy fuck what a nightmare it's all left wing dribble!

I don't think the post is delusional, but the idea that we need to hide the fact that white=west=best is retarded. He's upset because Trump is speaking truths that he doesn't want to hear.
>>
>>132896632
Reddit is really not that bad, just some particular sub-reddits. But there are a lot of different opinions and interesting discussions to be found.
>>
the main subs are total shit, but there are some still decent subs. pretty sure r/politics is just sharbelue shilling though.

Name forum with a post rating system and many many personal boards in which the owners and their lackies uphold their personal delusions.
There is no true medium of debate on that site.
And if there was the site admins would shadowban people that BTFO'd them in such a hall of debate.

>>132896632
The DNC bought out reddit last year during the primaries, replaced the mods of the big politics/news boards with their own shills and anyone who bitched about it or posted anything negative by hillary got flooded by downarrows and 9000 word rebuttals from brand new accounts (or just banned, depending). Place went from 99% bernie/trump supporters boosting their candidate to propaganda straight from the democratic party overnight. /pol/ used to make fun of all the bernouts constantly and it was really obvious with how suddenly all of the salty bernie bros got replaced with dem shills.
>>

So they do admit whites are indeed supreme?
>>
>>132896632
Any site that has shit float to the top based on votes, rather than truth or first come, first serve, is going to be shit in general, because only mass appeal with rise. Mass appeal also had us following Paris Hilton's every move for months and months on news networks, so that should tell you how "good" mass appeal really is.
>>
>>132896632
A few years ago, before the internet got completely shit, when reddit was relatively new and hip it was full of diverse opinions wherever I looked.
Every 6 months you could feel it sliding a little more into the echo chamber it is today.

In 2007 reddit had some interesting political threads when Ron Paul got big. Eventually either shills and generally retarded redditors started r/enoughpaulspam and combined with the growing obama idolization successfully shut out all interesting discussion. I unsubbed from r/politics in 2007/08. It has been pure shit since then, so about 10 years now.
>>
>>132896632
>Was reddit at one point even a sane online platform for politics?
It was always liberal, but not this pants on head retarded. And r/politics was overtaken by shills when democrats launched their CTR campaign, everything that was not in line got shoahed instantly.
>>
>>132903113
Before Trump took office there would be r/pics just a picture of Obama with the caption "I'm gonna miss this guy." It's like my god, you clueless fucking twit. Obama is the epitome of neoliberal evil and you "miss this guy" yet you have this demonic hatred for Trump for next to nothing. You can't communicate with the average Reddit fag, don't even try. They need to be removed.

aside from a few like the donald sub rebbit is still a bunch of faggots making "witty" comments about american politics with the dreamworks face.

I mean, they're sort of right. It was basically a white nationalist speech. It literally sounded like something richard Spencer would have written.

Not even just mass appeal, but the fact that you can essentially buy influence with bots and upvote accounts. In order to shill here you have to shitpost slide threads which are easier to call out and disappear after a while regardless of how many people respond.

>>132896632

The left's reactions to Trump are always 10 times than Trump. We owe them a huge debt of gratitude for keeping Trump a radicalizing and polarizing figure, whereas the mainstream GOP constantly pushes for the exact opposite.

>>132896632
It has always been a hardcore left echo chamber, when it started up I was in college and it was pretty normal to just ban the shit out of conservatives and race realists. They always have and always will do any mental gymnastics necessary to stand by inferior views.

It's a depressing place because it is clearly fake. This time last year you could talk freely about politics, and the Bernie support seemed genuine.

Dare you to go there now, sort by controversial for the last hour, and try pointing out misleading headlines.

This is from Don Jr and that top gun clip.

PROPAGANDA.

Reddit is commercialized and controlled. 4chan deliberately drives it away. I hate this site but admire it for its honesty. People hero worship celebs. The only that I trust a little is the BBC because its get shit on by both sides. AP and Reteurs as well or Twitter for raw shit.
>>
>>132898037

They left out the #1 biggest problem Europe faces- mass migration. Everything in Trump's speech in Poland centered around this. Poland rejects the EU's immigration quotas.

Not slow, measured, controlled, sustainable, reasonable migration that will not put a cultural & economic strain on the host countries. Mass migration from 3rd world Islamic countries into Western countries.

This is the key issue and the poster neglected to mention it.

Yes, though once the election was nearly over everything shifted as mods began to get bought out, restrictions/bans on all subreddits that weren't leftist, and massive bot programs (granted this was probably done by both sides)

it used to be an extremely pro-Ron Paul site

no. I remember 8 years ago it was a nice little site to talk about tech news. Then a tolerable site. Then an intolerable one.

Just because your Communist General Threads were a shitshow, doesn't mean that they got "shut down".

honestly dat speech was lolzy beyond belief. after the first 20 minutes I wondered whether this man has anything else to say than virtue-signalling crap about the few things he had learned an hour ago about polish history. I mean, you could see how he had problems differentiating between the warsaw uprising and the dat kike shit in da ghetto uprising.
Should have given poles some nukes agains gemanistan and the vodka niggers in the east, instead of lame promises. Anarcho-Sarmatism nao!

It was bound to happen sooner or later with the site's upboat downboat system and the fact that anyone can make a board and hire their own mods. The perfect recipe for an echo chamber was there for quite awhile.

back in 2008 and even 2012, r/politics was no.1 fan forum for Ron Paul on the internet.

True story.

Then reddit got taken over by the cabal.

Reddit was always a fucking cesspool. Even worse than 4chan. Nothing good ever came from that site and whoever came from there should just go back and kill themselves. I don't care if you lurk here since 2009. If you ever used that fucking gay piece of shit website you should end your fucking life.

>>132906838
No, reddit became popular. With popularity, it had to cater to normie things. There are always going to be more normie things than important things. Over time, the normie stuff grew and grew and it fed the userbase.

But ultimately the voting system destroyed reddit. They changed voting ethics from "don't downvote things you disagree with" to "downvote everything you find the slightest disagreement with". A good deal of users only cared about posting content because they got internet points for doing so. Making it acceptable to downvote everything had the same effect on reddit that democracy has on politics.

Only say what people want to hear and you'll be rewarded, but nothing important can be said ever again.

Reddit is just another failed democracy. It shows most clearly that democracy is just another form of bribery.
