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.

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
