i'll start. i saw a ask reddit post saying something along the lines of "men of reddit whats something women can't understand" and the comments were just. oh my god. the main one that made me want to puke was "when dudes walk by each other and nod" and the whole fucking thread was just fedoras with arms soypogging like it was some secret language or something. "when you nod upwards, it means respect!!!!!1!!11 when you nod downwards its aggression!!!1!11!!!!!" as if women dont do the same shit.

do you guys have something similar to share?

Reddit has gone down hill from 2016 too. I genuinely think it's just a big migration pattern from one social media platform to the next. The idiots started in YouTube comments, then Facebook around 2016, Twitter has really gotten fucked since the pandemic, and now it's moved to Reddit. It's in the same vein that chuds simply can't keep to themselves on social media, they have to feel like they're involved in the discourse.

Everybody who doesn't love what reddit is has been spending less time there if not leaving all together.

All the worst aspects of reddit are getting worse by the day.

There was a post on the front page of a college lecture hall with a bunch of blonde women in it. Title was "class for astrology majors"

Literally 10s of thousands of upvotes for the most obviously bullshit "women bad" meme I've ever seen.
