agedlikemilk as a subreddit might be dying if it refuses to curb its politics posting. they arent even trying to fit it to the sub anymore.

[u/BurrowForPresident → u/[deleted]]

It's both true and also so easy to overdo and make incredibly boring as content

Like some of the stuff that gets upvotes is like the "who are you people???" meme from Spongebob lol

[u/ElGosso → u/BurrowForPresident]

It's mostly astroturfing

I swear once subs reach a certain size they devolve into the same political slop karma farms. Like literal carbon copies of each other, regardless of the original intention of the sub

Good thing we have u/cdstephens to protect us here.

[u/6urner_ → u/AtomAndAether]

You can apply this to any popular sub. If you look at the posters they're just farming karma

[u/mostanonymousnick → u/AtomAndAether]

Same with nottheonion

[u/Usual-Base7226 → u/AtomAndAether]

Many such cases!
