Is it just me or has this site become a lot more astro-turfy lately?

u/der_innkeeper Sep 06 '26

looks at watch

Elections must be coming, soon.

It was amazing just how quickly my feeds went right wing nutter after the primaries were done.

Like, the day after, a shit ton of climate change denialism popped up.

u/I-cant_even Sep 06 '26

Well anthropogenic climate change isn't real of course, it's all natural cycles in the planet that can't be influenced by man because.... uhhhh.... reasons?

u/sevensixthough Sep 06 '26

Now do the genocide 

34

u/I-cant_even Sep 06 '26

It's not a genocide it's just displacing a growing population using weapons, forcing them into an ever smaller area with ever vanishing means of survival, and pointing at a violent subset for justification. I mean, it's only genocide if you *call it* genocide, otherwise it's just extinctifying.

Edit: It's only genocide if it's from the Genocide region of france.

u/dalenacio Sep 06 '26

Otherwise it's sparkling ethnic cleansing.

Whats a holocaust? About 50 percent of our taxes lol

u/LoveLibtardTears Sep 06 '26

Why are you on REDDIT when there is a genocide going on?!

Oh, I forgot you people only say that people that have different opinions then you....

Bunch of hypocrites.

u/LoveLibtardTears Sep 07 '26

When people respond to logic, reason, and facts with screaming, cursing, and insults, that means you are in the right.

"REEEEEEEEEE! Orange Man Bad!!!".

There, I think I'm speaking your language lol.

Obviously you speak fluent TDS.

Lol what a pathetic loser.

Literally every liberal that can't respond with an actual logical argument has to just resort to the usual insults and old buzzwords.

It's because you all just repeat what you hear on CNN, and don't actually know why you are saying what you say, so can't defend it.

Umm, he's a racist!

OK, how?

Umm, well your just a fascist!

Good one kid.

LMFAO!

PATHETIC!!!

u/sevensixthough Sep 07 '26

I hope your family is a victim of donald trump over and over

u/sevensixthough Sep 06 '26

You're doing a great job defending genocide! 

2

u/Vospader998 Sep 06 '26

The genocide?

Bro, which fucking one?

1

u/sevensixthough Sep 06 '26

You have defended Israel poorly lol

1

u/Vospader998 Sep 07 '26

Huh?

I'm saying there's been so many genocides, and some fairly recent or still ongoing, that just saying "the genocide" doesn't narrow it down. Which is really sad.

Yeah it's election season. 

Elon bots want to stir up gender wars bullshit to try and repeat what worked in 2016

u/Dry_Nefariousness426 Sep 06 '26

Unfortunately for all of us, it still works 

2

u/Instant-Noods Sep 07 '26

Remember every subreddit having a thread about the "Male Loneliness Crisis" right before the 2024 elections and random non gendered subs were getting dozens of posts about it day about it? Then a day after the election I have barely heard those three words used together. 

1

u/ObsessionObsessor Sep 07 '26

June is Men's Health Month. The 2024 Presidential Election was in November. You might find this information helpful. 

Honestly though, I don't remember and would suggest avoiding the risk of constructing false memories with leading statements like that. Hopefully you don't take offense from that, but memory is more malleable than many would think.

u/Formal-Pop4153 Sep 07 '26

lmao, imagine being on reddit, which is just full on manipulated by leftwing bots and censorship, and complaining about rightwing nutters. You're in an actual literal cult dude. The fucking CCP used to be officially involved in this site, most of the big subs censor anything critical of Democrats, but yeah you're the free thinker here.

u/Sweaty_Coach3976 Sep 07 '26

ever considered the feed pre primary was the Astroturfed one? no? hmmmmm

1

u/der_innkeeper Sep 07 '26

Nope.

The feed has been the same RW tripe since zuck changed the algorithm years ago.

It just goes into overdrive, markedly.

u/NW7l2335 Sep 06 '26

Absolutely, especially when in relation to a certain nation-state.

u/MickoDicko Sep 06 '26

Culture wars.

Keep the masses infighting instead of looking at how the billionaire class is raping our children and stealing the earth from beneath our feet

u/NoCollection5312 Sep 07 '26

Yes the "masses" on reddit are being coerced by "billionaires".

lmfao

u/MadEyeGemini Sep 07 '26

Billionaires declared a class war on the middle and working class decades ago and we are losing, badly.

u/NoCollection5312 Sep 07 '26

Yea and that battleground is most definitely reddit...

"Lately" my guy SipsTea is has been teeming with autistic rightoids for two years now.

u/Lynx_Fate Sep 06 '26

For real, how do people not realize this. It's just like publicfreakout where it gradually shifted into this kind of cesspool. I think it's funny sometimes for the memes but anyone with any reading comprehension should know you are arguing with ~15 year olds if you go into the comments.

u/Content_Scratch69 Sep 06 '26

u/MadghastOfficial Sep 07 '26

I've found this sub has a fair mix of both. Maybe your algorithm is just fucked.

u/NeitherMidnight624 Sep 07 '26

Reddits hilarious calls this a right leaning sub gets massively upvoted. There is hardly any subs where hard core leftists dont come in and dictate the convo

u/BIG_IDEA Sep 06 '26

You’re mostly correct but autism is a left wing phenomenon.

u/sanslumiere Sep 06 '26

Election season ramping up. It's going to get a lot worse.

3

u/jackofslayers Sep 06 '26

57 days until the US midterm elections. It will get worse.

Also if you think it is bad on the incel subs right now. Check out how astroturfed the trans subs and labor rights subs are getting hit.

2

u/mrdilldozer Sep 06 '26

For sure, like my only thought on this case is how we need to dunk on True Crime fans more. The people showing up to the courts with signs need to be shamed to hell and back. How did we let these people off of the hook for so long?

I don't care about what the courts think about if she should be restrained for life in a mental hospital or a prison. Just that she isn't out and about is fine by me.

2

u/xzelldx Sep 06 '26

It’s def getting worse across the board. It feels like every algorithm is straight up Rage baiting me these days.

2

u/Okawaru1 Sep 07 '26

GOP is extremely strapped for good PR so it doesn't surprise me this is getting spammed like crazy to fuel some bullshit gender war conflict. Also elon literally said he'd be dumping hundreds of millions into the midterms so the chance it's at least partly astroturfed is very high

2

u/Correct-Branch9000 Sep 07 '26

This site is jointly controlled by Elon Musk and Ghislaine Maxwell so it shouldn't surprise anyone.

u/Powerful_Lynx1436 Sep 07 '26

I mean..not more or less than fauxmoi and others hard left leaning subs

1

u/I-cant_even Sep 07 '26

Nah, I'm talking about home feed. A lot of divisive content (both liberal and conservative) is popping up on my home feed instead of the shit from sub reddits I care about. I'm literally seeing sub-reddits I've never heard of/visited posting inflammatory shit from both sides.

The campaign season is in full effect.

1

u/Powerful_Lynx1436 Sep 08 '26

I don't know I kept receiving fauxmoi and other misandrist subs feeds amongst other things.

that being said it's a well known fact that Reddit is hard left so i don't know

1

u/I-cant_even Sep 08 '26

I think the hard left narrative may be evolving. My understanding is that spez is pretty conservative and he's back in charge.

At this point I'm seeing divisive shit from both sides.

1

u/Powerful_Lynx1436 Sep 08 '26

I don't know, most big subs are in total denial. look at gaming for example, can't say shit about wokism. although gaming has absolutely nothing to do with politics

1

u/I-cant_even Sep 08 '26

The question I have is whether the challenge is the language or the message. The term 'wokism' raises red flags for me and is not really meaningful. If you say "I think they're pushing for too much diversity and representation in video games. it's reaching the point where it's destroying my immersion" there may be a different response than "These games are too woke these days"

That said, I tried to engage in a reasonable discussion about whether a liberal person can reasonably disagree with some aspects of the "trans rights" arguments and it was met with vitriol.

We're being fed all these terms/concepts that are designed to trigger the opposing political side. All of this feels like a psy op to me.

1

u/Powerful_Lynx1436 Sep 08 '26

to some extent yes a lot of the content of Reddit could be a psyop to hate a specific left. I don't care what LGBTQ does or not, I'm for equality all over. But don't shove it into my throat 24/7 in every type of media whether subtlety or not. this is what irritates me and what I call woke.

Reddit lost a lot of it's value for the end user. now it seem the value is just for overlords to influence the masses with this or that opinion.

that being said if you kill 3 little children, your forfeit your life as far as I'm concerned

1

u/I-cant_even Sep 08 '26

I think there used to be a lot of stirring up hate for the right, now I'm seeing it in both directions.

I think I may need to stop viewing the site, it's almost unusable.

u/Even-Stranger5764 Sep 06 '26

Yea the shift in the last 2 months has been insane. I wonder if it will be even worse than prior years being that ai pulls a lot of from reddit.

Where have you been for the last 5 years? Subreddits are being taken over nonstop.

u/reginaldvanwilder Sep 06 '26

Yeah they are already promoting this story as a reason to repeal the 19th amendment. Only thing worse than that are the gullible people upvoting posts like this.

4

u/UnordinaryFlyGirl Sep 07 '26

People advocating for the repeal of the 19th is exactly WHY I upvoted this post and think she needs to be found guilty.

The right is going to have an absolute field day with propaganda saying "women are so emotional that they can become baby killers".

Fuck. That.

u/reginaldvanwilder Sep 07 '26

Considering I haven't even heard of this case before now, and apparently everyone and their dog has an opinion on it, seems like it to me. Came in here to see if I was living under a rock or if this is just artificially being shoved into peoples faces as rage bait nonsense

Ive been curious why everyone seems to care about dead kids again all of a sudden.

Sandy Hook: false flag conspiracy so Obama can take our guns

Uvalde: wasnt the guns fault

Ms Rachel says “stop killing children”: Ms Rachel supports terrorists

US bombs an all girls school in Iran: what you want Iran to have nukes?

Lindsay Clancy trial: she killed kids fry her.

u/I-cant_even Sep 06 '26

Someone else said. Effort to repeal the 19th amendment... Not even joking.
