everybody on ilx complains about reddit

Everyone in that exchange comes across as an asshole except poster #2.

LOL that user's suspended now.

I had always imagined that wagon wheel pasta was somehow related to the Chinese because of Taoism.

Wagon wheel was my grandfather's favorite pasta and he was actually Italian (2nd generation American). He said it was the best at holding tomato sauce.

It reminds me of trivial pursuit

I am enjoying the territorial nerdrage between /r/gameofthrones, /r/asoiaf and /r/freefolk since last night.

lmbo I don't even want to know more, that's great stuff

/r/frenworld has been banned. how many more racist subreddits to go?

like counting the stars

“The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of the human race than the discovery of a new subreddit.”

ok, so /r/TheDonald has been quarantined, and a handful of other alt-right subs were banned or quarantined today.

Too bad they didn't quarantine it back in 2016, preferably before the election.

Has Trump started flipping shit about his fans being persecuted by reddit yet?

He will around 4:15 am.

guess it was threatening cops that finally got them, lmao

Or the fact that a third party published an article about it.

Also, Jordan Peterson's hatreon is about to experience an unprecedented migrant crisis.

lol they do one cool thing and get banned

Or the fact that a third party published an article about it.

Which article?

I had to cut out Reddit, the alt-right brigading was becoming increasingly obnoxious there, particularly on r/China in my case. I think I attracted some stalkers because I mocked Steve Bannon one too many times.

It will be interesting to see how isolating the MAGA crowd will play out but I suspect the admins generally gave them a pass for too long and this won't mark a critical setback for the Trumpist brigadiers. Likely they'll just migrate to other subreddits rather than Hatreon or whatever.

This is telling: search Reddit for "child custody" and one of the top three recommended subreddits is for Men's Rights.

Which article?

This one, apparently:

Here is the thread which made me despair of the place - please note the number of upvotes this prick has got.

(this will be of limited interest to people who are not familiar with life in China btw)

seeing my r/china posts translated on chinese messageboards like zhihu freaked me out. just boring posts but still. and also i was posting under my real name and unlike twitter where your peers are always hovering beneath you, i felt like i was always in more danger of popping off in a bad way.

/r/honkler, an alt-right subreddit that - to my limited understanding - involved clown pepes saying "honk honk" instead of heil hitler, has been banned.

Yeah, maybe I should've posted it here instead of the Twitter thread

oh sorry, I didn't see that

lol that's totally made up

wow there's an ExRedPill forum with titles like "What is self love" and "How do I stop worrying about my height?"

Reads like incel fanfic:

Most of the fakes are over the top but that one’s juuuuuust right.

yeah i'm not sure if it's real. it's just ... what a world!

that third graph lol

the only reason i think that one is fake is cause its too funny

Ok this is gold:

(Mind the date, obv.)

"the glitch in the matrix" is a really good source of twilight zone type user-generated fiction

going to have this printed on a t-shirt take it to six flags and have one of their talented t-shirt artists spraypaint God Bless The Troops over it

I started thinking about the missing players and coaches. Ideally Oscar is coaching while Kevin and Darryl are playing, but probably Michael is trying to coach and play forward. On the other side, Gunther is definitely holding Rachel up, Ursula is in the game actively sabotaging her own team, and despite this and Joey flirting with Pam, The Office is still getting demolished.

Eddie Menuek is the ref. He's constantly calling fouls, and everyone ignores him.

I kinda like how its mashing up different eras. The artist was probably was just fond of these two shows in particular. If I had any artistic ability at all, I might draw the Office vs Dragon Ball Z.

I mean the artist's name and @ are in the image, if you're willing to give money I bet you can arrange it

boy oh boy do those people over there obsess over the wrong cultural signifiers!

god they sure do
