Now Reddit’s not just promoting ragebait and AI generated stories, but divisive conservative rhetoric. Anyone else notice the non-political subreddits spontaneously hosting a population of chuds and propagandists where a few weeks ago they weren’t tolerated?

Has reddit changed the algorithm? Has some nation begun its bot operation? Has reddit deployed bots at musk’s behest? Has twitter sent its worst users to brigade? (All of twitter’s users are its worst users) I don’t know, but the effect is striking. All I’m certain about is that I’m avoiding reddit even harder now.

        If you think Trump/Elon/republicans will cause television to not function - you must be batshit psychotic. Also, who tf said I’m a fascist? You are assuming shit without substance. I dislike fascism very much. Also, I don’t give a flying fuck about any instance that bans people for calling out people who litter r/pics with mostly political pics.
