I'm here after legging it the heck away from Reddit, and this is the post that makes me think I'm gonna like it here.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You will. It's like Reddit 10 years ago here. Never looking back.

well, for at least a few years at least.

Although I did see a meme using the rapist Vince McMahon posted the other day which is gross.

Voice McMahon? Who is that, did you mean Vince McMahon? I didn't know he was a rapist.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I did mean that. Autocorrect decided otherwise.

What made you change your opinion now?(to reddit)

Reddit hitting me with a permaban for an arbitrary reason was a strong factor. I was getting tired of how toxic the site was anyway, so, eh we're good.

All I was getting on Reddit were toxic Star Wars fans who would shit on me for either liking something they didn't or disliking something they liked, as if Fandom was a rigid set of instructions that compelled you only to like the things the Zeitgeist approved of... and all the "Reddit Atheists"

Now I have nothing against atheists, the existence of God is far more open to debate than something like the shape of the Earth.

However, Reddit Atheists are a different breed. I'm talking about the people who have unironically created a religion out of bashing religion. The "I pray to science every day! Hear the good word of Sam Harris! Lock up people who pray in insane asylums!" type. The kind who say Sky Daddy so often that those two words together make you sick.

Again, nothing against Atheists (My opinions on the validity of the supernatural are rather inconsistent, so let's say I'm Agnostic at best.), but every group, let me repeat, EVERY GROUP has its nutters who take it to absurd extremes you never before thought possible. Reddit had a lot this specific kind of crazy.
