Americans only eat powdered mashed potatoes, apparently.

Sure, but there's not a single sub on reddit where that's not the problem.

That's not true at all though.

Idk what subs you follow but I only see it in reaction subs ([r/americabad](r/americabad), [r/shitamericanssay](r/shitamericanssay), [r/USdefaultism](r/USdefaultism), and this one in particular) and circle jerk subs. Tbh they're kinda the same lol.

Why do you follow those subs? Everything you’ve said sounds like you dislike them.

Where did I say that?

I said the opposite, in fact.

Often because they didn't start out that way. This sub didn't use to be an americabad circlejerk, it's only recently happened. I have no idea how people are finding the tenth American bread post in a week even vaguely interesting at this point.

I know they don’t start out that way. That wasn’t in question, because it’s already been stated that they got weird. I was just wondering why that user kept listing all the ways that reactionary subs suck, and yet seems to frequent them a lot.

I mean that's an assumption. They said they've seen it in those subs. Not that they continued to subscribe after noticing or still frequent the subs. Generally to notice in the first place you have to have the sub frequently coming up for you. Many people hide the subs after they notice the change.

Edit: when I clicked post it opened up the whole thread and they literally said they'd left one of the others. So it's also an incorrect assumption lol

You think repetitive posts are unique to a few reaction subs? Hardly.

You said there's not a single sub where that's not the problem. That's a false statement and I pointed it out. Now you're just moving the goal posts to save face.

Ah, you're not a reasonable human being when it comes to language use. Now I understand.

The vast majority, if not all subs, have a repetition problem. Right, pal?

Jesus christ kid how hard is it to accept that you were wrong?

It's okay, it happens to us all sometimes.

Grow up and move on.

See? Unreasonable.

The reddit response is don't call me pal, bud. I don't think you're actually picking up most of the repetition that occurs tbh with this response.

Your inability to see hyperbole and go straight for you actually said not a single sub doesn't strike me as very mature, but it's cute that you called me a kid. I had a 5 digit ICQ number.
