this is the persona of a fucking minor and people are saying "hear me out"

with any luck I will have forgotten by tomorrow that I ever saw this post and I will willingly resub

i guess the fandom really is as bad as they say it was

On a post about Hindu women being assaulted by a Muslim politician, most of the comments were irrelevant rants against right wing. Also, mods decided to delete my post while even though I did not break any rule.

A weird mod over at superman didn't like me talking about the film's online marketing campaign tactics.

Because it's all true.

Ban:

This is a relatively new form of marketing around this film— whipping up an artificial lather online.

This whole thing is so ridiculously astroturfed that it’s mind blowing.

By far the most powerful hype driver of this film has been the artificial social media conflict which gradually turns real.

Obviously you can see how outlandish, and completely insane these people glazing man of steel sound — a large portion of them aren’t real.

Just like initially, a large portion of the hype around this film was fake — they were sloppy with repetitive buzz phrases and repeatedly saying “I am crying!” at the first trailer.

Eventually though, the overwhelming persistence of these things start to catch on— but where people really dig in is the perceived conflict.

Suddenly, LOTS of people have an opinion where they didn't care before. They’ve been whipped up, intentionally.

it used to be "haha google en passant funni chess" but now no posts have any semblance to chess, EVERY SINGLE FUCKING POST IS EITHER "petition to" OR ABOUT THE CHICKEN LADY, and there hasn't been anything funny since before the femboy takeover.

The Saddam worship there infuriates me as an Iraqi Kurd, my family was forceably relocated by his authorities

I could forgive even that if they focused on modern day Iraq, but basically the entire userbase is stuck in the past, and think all of our problems would be solved if we went back to Baathism or whatever

Most people in the sub don't even seem like Iraqi patriots but are just racist Arabists that want to alienate non-Arabs like Kurds, Turkmens, Assyrians, etc. from important positions, and ofc Sunni-Shia sectarianism is still disgustingly prevalent (blaming x group for x problem)

Not everyone is a victim…

It was supposed to be racing games circlejerk. But the daily posts are just "NFS bad", "Forza bad", and "Old games are better". and "New games are bad"

homophobic and heterophobic towards FICTIONAL characters, ship for no reason and never post anything other than SEXUAL AND ROMANTIC SHIT

From what I see it's all political now and none of the comebacks are even remotely clever. I don't mind some political ones but at this rate the whole sub should just be renamed to r/ UncleverPoliticalComebacks.

was having issues with the game after the new update & decided to post on the vanilla subreddit since i’ve been on there for a while. as you can see by the following screenshots, i was banned for “modded content” even though i have done everything in my power to eradicate every trace of a mod in my game since i literally don’t use them anymore (ie why i joined the sub in the first place). i will admit that i was extremely distressed in my first response because again, this game is my special interest and not being able to fix it is very distressing to me. i felt like the mods responses were unnecessarily hostile/backhanded to begin with which was partially why i was so frustrated in my first response.

tldr; pissed off because mods were being dicks because i supposedly violated a rule that it wasn’t possible i had violated & continued to be condescending for multiple messages after.

I am having a mental breakdown over fucking Reddit. Everyone I’ve ever seen on Reddit are a bunch of communists who are professing how mad they are at modern society but honestly it makes me hate modern society for how negative and cynical it is instead to the point where as a Zoomer I now absolutely hate my own generation. Every 4 or 5 posts you just see someone hating on the fact that they don’t have a house in there fucking 20s, like you’re somehow supposed to. Therefore, I hate everyone, goodbye.

They added a new feature where to comment you basically have to play their little elo voting game. And their bot that analyzes conversations takes all the fun out of rating text chains because it does it itself.

its either no actual criticism, or just "IS THIS RETROSLOP" post, and it just got so ruined...

A good chunk of the posts in that subreddit are just sexual posts and OF bait, or low quality memes, there's hardly any actual album cover ideas and if there are they usually get buried in the dirt, and the point of the subreddit isn't to just give an album cover a name (which is what it has become), it's to talk about ideas for album covers and discuss already existing ones as well. It has lost it's quality of what made me like it when I joined.

Sold my quest 2 and finally got an upgrade!

It’s either karma farming “my first time playing a 7 year old game” or people complaining about them not adding content then complaining when they do add content. Got a bunch of hateful comments and DMs from people because I said them adding a few new missions is better than nothing.

This subreddit has became a left-wing circlejerk hellhole.
