Yeah i agree. It was a very sad thing. And even worse to make light of when you consider the number of people who become imprisoned for minor things or even wrongly. If prison rpe is so prevalent as Reddit jokes made it seem, it wouldn’t only happen to people who those making the jokes believe ‘deserve it’ (which, also, is awful to think about rpe.) I remember learning in class about David Milgaard, and he wrote about his experiences, including that violation. I wonder if those who joked “they’ll love (random young guy in publicfreakouts video) in prison” even know or care how awful r*pe really is. It’s really something that should be prevented.

Sorry commenting again because I wanna say I so agree about megathreads. I thought it’s just me being picky, and maybe I should just be glad for the organization. But really, I didn’t like them all so much because sometimes it slowed a topic or stifled the conversation about a topic. And it really seem to make the topic be more hidden. (I understood sometimes to have one big thread organizing links for example, but for some things it seemed to hide a subject from wider view, and even tho searching posts wasn’t so good on Reddit, trying to search through the megathread seemed worse…)

When someone would ask a good question that you also wanna know the answer to, but then all the “answers” were just jokes bc everyone wanna get upvotes. I dont really mind jokes but those times it was a bit sad, then sometimes no one would answer for real bc i guess they see 10 replies and assume surely one of them is real already.

Also repost bots.

And apple vs samsung feuds.

And sometimes looked like whenever some people try to organize action or protests, comments just spamming that “protests do nothing” or “voting does nothing,” or “what is this gonna do,” not suggesting any other solution either, almost like trying to encourage apathy? Or discourage action. Sometimes i wondered if those were bots.

Also the r/wooosh when someone didn’t understand a joke. .-.

I’d like to say that I’ve seen comment of yours about language before and I want to say I really respect this. I know for me some words are harder to say in English (like rural - though I have practiced! But atm when I say sounds a bit like roool lol) and before seeing on Reddit, I wouldn’t have thought that conversate isn’t considered a word by so many! It doesn’t seem so wrong to me. And it helps to know there are people in the world like you who wouldn’t just be disgusted by the difference.

How can i hide this post

I feel like it might show them that doing nice things is a way to get attention. Maybe that’ll encourage them to do nice things. Is probably more favourable than influencers that teach doing mean things is ok because it’s on camera or it’s funny or just a joke, and that being mean is a way to get attention. Though its important for children to know that attention isnt everything.

Did it even start as that? Or did Reddit just bought it and put it away and made something completely different?

SAME its happened on Reddit where I would have a back and forth w someone where we disagreed but it was respectful, and then in the middle of it I’d notice the other person’s comments being -1 even new ones. Meaning someone who isnt in the convo would start downvoting the other person, and I’d be like ‘what if they think I did it? What if that damages a mutual understanding they were close to reaching? What if that turns them off from considering a different point of view bc they assume I’m doing it and that I’m hostile?’ Then sometimes I’d be like “sorry someone is downvoting you its not me”

Everyone, on kbin u can see who boosted , downvoted/reduced, or upvote/favourited any comment by pressing “more” then “activity”. For posts it’s at the bottom of the comment section

Yea is good to know. I knew that early bc someone said that someone else accosted them after they reduced/downvoted one of their posts

Just say youre doing whatever it is youre doing. Like “relaxing, staying home” (? If the field is at your home? Or is there no field and that was a joke lol) I’m not from or in the U.S.A. and if someone asked (online) I’d probably just say “just staying home I don’t live in the U.S.A. .” (But since you’re in the U.S.A. ofc u dont need to say the second part.)

The article says

In a brief statement Friday, Sweden’s Prosecution Authority said it has launched ”a preliminary investigation where the crime classification is murder, but there is no suspect in the case.”

Maybe that is what the person meant or referrence

I saw this posted maybe on Friday and back then people said theyd report those and told others to, so is possible that they got removed already (or maybe there werent many)

Yea me too i am a bit wondering why. People kept saying this was the reason, but idk if they really mean that or if its just ‘saying what sounds possible as a half joke’ (like when people answer any question about any shady business or very expensive auctions as “its money laundering” even tho there may be other explanations. I think ppl say it half jokinly?) Idk what reason snap would do this tho? Maybe theyre planning to make a gif hosting thingy by theirself?

I didnt know that was true. Some famous people ive seen called really attractive dont have perfectly symmetrical faces. In fact for some of them its not too hard to notice the asymmetry but theyre still really attractive… i think the amount that symmetry comes into play might not be as high as other stuff like the shape/size of features, if at all. but ya.

Also for the hair thing i think is just bc some hairstyles look cuter than others depending on the person. Not necessarily middle part for everyone tho is not bad.

Ive heard ppl say stuff like “oh that animal doesnt feel pain it’s not intelligent” but idk i always just assume the animal has feeling and could be hurt… so thats why i havent been able to kill bugs. (Bc you can see their eyes and stuff! Theyre alive and everything.)
