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?

Here's some low-hanging fruit I can't believe hasn't been mentioned yet: /r/unpopularopinion which is just a soapbox for reactionary hot takes. Speaking of, /r/PoliticalCompassMemes being full of open Nazis

smuglord Nuh uh! They're not all Nazis, that redditor with the username /u/KillTheBlacks1488 has a "lib-left" flair! Why do you hate free speech and the marketplace of ideas?

They have every stripe of political opinion from nazis, to nazis pretending to be liberals, to nazis pretending to be socialists.

You forgot Nazis that think they're liberals, liberals that think they're leftists and liberals that think they're not fascists

"I'm not a Nazi" - Some Nazi, usually

I was going to make the "My 'I'm not a Nazi' T-shirt" joke, but it'd be more accurate if the shirt said "I'm a Nazi" and everyone around them were making up reasons for why calling them a Nazi is bad.

It's almost come around to the point of being humorous to see what r/PCM thinks are left wing opinions ag this point.

It's an actual mental exercise to try to figure out why they are saying we're all so mad about certain things.

An entire subreddit of "I made myself the Chad and you the wojack making me the victor"
