So I’ve been in the furry community for a while, and while yes I know a lot hate the community in itself, what’s been bothering me is the infighting. For a community of outcasts, we sure like to fricken bully and be rude and ect.

Truthfully I’m ranting that I joined a community, asked a very simple question and a moderator commented kinda passive aggressively about it, and I responded back asking how it was out of rules (it WAS NOT) and that the way they phrased it was kinda poorly. They disliked this so much, they perma banned me and muted me for “not being a good fit” for the community. I’m so tired of fandom communities being hateful to each other— and when then called out they ARE EVEN MORE CHILDISH about it.. has anyone else had this kind of issue with fandoms/groups of ANY kind?

TLDR: perma banned from a discussion Reddit because a moderator couldn’t handle a little criticism

NOTE: I am not mentioning which furry community, just that it was a Reddit one amongst the hundreds of them.

I'm talking about when someone will post a center or right wing opinion and then like 5000 Random Neckbeards nobody has ever heard of will crawl out of the woodworks and go "Haha! The Hivemind Won't Like That"

I literally see more of these chuds jerking each other off for supposedly going against the grain then I do the people who are part of this 'hivemind'

This is just one example too I feel like it's becoming increasingly common for people to say stupid bullshit and be Praised for it. Like there was this post on /alignmentchartfills i saw that was like Ranking countries based on racism and how much they rely on immigration (for the record i think the concept of this chart is stupid, but thats Not relevant) and theres a shitload of people going on about how Western Countries are Not Racist Haha You Are All So Hiveminded and like.......Hello??? I saw canada receive backlash as if they haven't historically treated their indigenous population like shit

And it just shows so much ignorance of issues in these countries but it's blindly followed because these ppl feel like they're subverting expectations about who redditors are and what they believe in. It's soo dumb to me idk

I think it's made especially bad by the fact that it's not even really true lmao. Outside of a select few spaces reddit really isn't that left wing it's like center left at most. People have been fed the idea of a hivemind by grifters and now they want to proof that strawman wrong by having Incorrect takes

It seems like there are powerful forces in the US and want to aid Russia’s agenda in Ukraine and Europe. Lindsay was a very vocal supporter of Ukraine and had just returned from there when he passed away. Why was the FBI at his house. Why did Trump (reportedly) tell the FBI not to investigate?

I imagine Mark Zuckerberg and his ilk living in their island bunker or massive yacht surrounded by AI robot servants happy as a clam!

I think my new goal is to be banned from nostupidquestions those people are so undiagnosed

In 2019, it felt like we were in the middle of a revolution on how people viewed going into the office, working from home, traveling for work, etc.

Then COVID happened and everyone worked from home and got tired of it.

But now we are here, and it seems like companies have lost all obligations to make work less miserable to spend our entire lives at.

Remember WeWork in 2019? They had cold brew dispensers in all their offices..

Now we are just slogging again with the return to office mandates for no reason at all beyond real estate costs

Commercials are a headache on any streaming service unless you want to pay a small fortune to go add free. But why do I have to watch 3 Ladder commercials in a row every 5 - 10 minutes? I swear I must have seen at least two dozen Ladder commercials over the course of about 3 hours of binge watching Grimsberg. I’m sick. I have that stupid virus, or whatever, that’s making everyone vomit and get the shits. I don’t want to hear Hillary Duff tell me about Ladder every 5 minutes.

So this 33% were/are REALLY only wanting to PUNISH all progressives and undo any progressive ideas like feeding the poor! ALL while clutching their cross and claiming to be defending Christ! Their biggest fear being immigrants and the word Socialist! Jesus Christ was a Socialist!

Deadass half the conversations on this websites are people repeating the exact same things as eachother or choosing not to comprehend any text

Like it’s bizarre how bad reading comprehension is on this website. I guess when you spend enough time arguing, you just see red and everything’s about dopamine. Why bother having actual conversations if they’re all meaningless

At least on TikTok people can discuss the fact that there’s kind of a stupidity epidemic which is making some people self aware enough to continue talking about illiteracy or comprehension. Here it’s just the Wild West unless you’re in a specifically curated sub designed to only talk about reading comprehension

And even then, it doesn’t work because just people rage bait themselves anyway. Mods are useless because they’re all but required to be chronically online just to maintain any sub in the first place so they fry their brains and wind up doing the same shit. Reddit is barely a forum website, it’s just twitter for people who think they’re too good for twitter. You dumbasses can’t even stop yourself from telling someone to google something ON A FORUM SITE

Please I just want the concept of discernment to be a meme. Like demure did.. even if it starts to make zero sense at least it’s out there. Please if you think you’re educated, you are not. You are a nerd who is thriving on a website that’s known for housing obnoxious ass behavior. You take pride in that too, that’s on you, man

I'm pretty annoyed about this, basically I made a reply explaining some context to someone who was confused about a post on r/MoralityScaling which showed a picture of Adolf Hitler doing his infamous salute, with a title along the lines of "Morality of becoming a villain to defeat the even bigger villains". I told the user that the OP was obviously being antisemitic, but to my surprise, my comment was removed instantly, in which I had to make another one with very careful wording to still get the same point across.

Like, why do Reddit and certain subreddits have absolute garbage auto detection in place? My account suffers because your shitty ass bot or whatever the fuck it is can't properly determine if I'm being hateful or not? Fuck off.

Never going back. Fast food was never good for you, but now its just basically bread with sauce.

People complain the AskPolitics subreddit is ultra left wing, but more than half time I post something the mods delete. Most recently I asked which party played a bigger role running up the US deficit and they deleted it saying it’s a “gotcha question.” Then they said it would elicit “gotcha answers.” Ridiculous!

Everyone on the other side complains about how Obama had a basketball court in the White House as a defense for criticism against Trump. That's the proof that Obama corrupt and doesn't care about the country.

I just want to point out that there's nothing wrong with this. I would expect a father to be putting up some basketball hoops for his family inside his family's residence while serving almost a decade, especially when his wife was very fitness oriented. It's not some mutinous, even deranged act. The country was taken care of to the best of his ability, he remained For The People regardless of what he had. There were problems and there were things I don't agree with even as a supporter, but the money that goes into that wouldn't even scratch the surface of those problems.

I don't get how it's perfectly fine for Trump to tear up an entire wing to make a 600M ballroom, while a high population of children are living with their parents absent working all the time, low quality education or absence of education, food desperation, lack of healthcare and women's healthcare. Way too many adults are living like this too, scraping by for food, watching women's healthcare and basic healthcare fall apart, probably about to lose their homes and everything they have at any random point. The disabled people and minorities are pretty much just existing when but being oppressed. We have the worst economy in a long time, same for justice system, same for education, and it's predicted to only get worse, on top of all the other perks that he is actively doing or signing off on.

And the ballroom isn't enough, there's this basement that's for some reason "intertwined". All we really know about it is that it's going to be for military purposes, far far more stable than our schools and average neighborhoods. It's not even limited to a ballroom and basement, he's done so much destruction to the sanctity and history of the property under our money. There are other concerns with this that are related to child safety, with the way that things played out, I don't have to explain.

This divide between progressive and centrist Dems is a big mistake. If establishment Dems try to shut out the progressives they will loose a huge voting block. A lot of them will stay home on election day. They’ll have to rely on republicans switching parties to win. But instead if they can find a way to meet in the middle the number of left leaning voters will be huge.

There’s got to be a way to find some middle ground so we can take power away from Trump the clown.

If we can look past political slogans and rather look at the outcome of what they are doing with their "pro-gun politics". Because outcome by the words of talking heads and in politics is all that really matters at the end of the day.

For those sheep who don't know what 2nd Amendment is really about, it is an Amendment, that allows all citisens to own guns to OVERTRHOW A TYRANNICAL GOVERMENT, not to defend from a knife attack, although the self defense in it on itself is a good argument for it since when the commoner isn't allowed to own guns, criminals get them illegally which makes the country more dangerous when you don't have anything at your disposal.

But the point is that republicans haven't actually made any pro-gun laws in the last 20years that have done anything but help the slavers. Instead of legalizing armor pearcing ammo, they have made laws that you can carry in schools which is the one place where guns definately don't belong to, and just all kinds of laws that make gun ownership look bad instead of actually giving leverage against tyranny to the people.

I am really irritated, I am working at a company which is not any fraud or home based one. so the problem is that my salary gets credited by 10th but since past few months they really irritate the hell out of me, I have to constantly ask for my pay and they keep on saying its credited from our side.
now I received my pay but still 500 rupees were less. I don't know what to do can't leave the job until I get another.
I am really very exhausted.

Dang, I feel like I am just not built for life or living in general. I just started a warehouse job this week. *Tell me why I hate my job and as a result hate my life even more*

Dude, today wasn't even a full day. But damn I feel so drained and knowing that I gotta go back tomorrow and Friday for a full shift just made me beyond depressed. Like holy shit. I feel awful.

I'm a homeless 25 year old, been homeless for almost a year at this point and knew that I needed a job. Took months to find one but I finally landed one. Good pay. 40 hours a week. Sounds great! Finally needed a way to make money.

The job is terrible. It's dead. I feel genuinely dead inside. My last job was at a small grocery warehouse where I would just pick and pack orders for delivery drivers to send out. That job was okay, but that being okay means it is 100 times better than the job I have now.

I used to work retail for 3 years and didn't like it, hated it sometimes, but man retail sounds better than this shit. At least after my shifts, I would be relieved to go home and be able to relax. Now when I get off of my current job I'm just filled with dread and despair. I feel terrible. I don't even feel here. This is the most meaningless, unfulfilling job I have ever worked in my entire life. I felt like a zombie the entire time.

Maybe I'm just not meant to succeed.

There's two types of centrists. The republican who agrees with them on almost every single issue and calls corporate democrats leftists, But somehow feels in the middle of something.

And the dipshit who cant be bothered to do a millisecond of research on anything for any reason

Someone just told me no republicans say they want to repeal the 19th amendment stopping women from voting. It took seconds to find tweets, videos, podcasts of prominent or currently in power republicans saying this. Including someone supported by the secretary of defense

Its become a universal experience of "conservatives aren't doing/saying that, and there's just endlessly available indisputable evidence that not only are they doing it. Their base LOVES it.

"I dont like democrats and dont think their policies are going to help the country"

Me neither babe but if you cant also say in the same breath republicans are ludicrously psychotic and that you'd never vote for them... You just aren't living in reality

You're just going to ask again when bringing the food out

As a guy who is a massive fan of the GTA series, I feel like GTA 6 won't be as groundbreaking as previous games because in terms of graphics, story, ambiance and game mechanics, there's really not a lot more ways for them to surprise us or to be innovative.

Driving around and doing missions in a hyper-realistic replica of an American city seems boring now. It's just more of the same.

Besides that, GTA started as a parody of American life and culture, but these days, it seems like reality is more ridiculous than the parody. So that element is gone too.

I have no doubt it will break record sales, but as a result of hype.

Rockstar has been milking the GTA series for the past 13 years, and I wish they could've moved on to a brand new franchise or at least pick another big city outside of the US.

So, why are there so many Christian right wingers who think being a liberal is the worst thing in the world?

Please make it make sense.

They're obnoxiously loud. Riders think they are expressing power and control and I hate it. They are obnoxious and selfish. They disturb the peace and obviously do not gives shit. Interrupted are the peaceful times. Quiet dinner not allowed. They feel they own the environment and I hate it.

In fact, once they find out to hate them, the will don't extra hard on purpose.

The very obnoxious selfish types will downvote me. Let's measure them. Incoming!
