@ArdainianRight @lunarfox Nihilism is a fucking death cult. These people are just useful idiots for population control freaks and closeted eugenicists like Bill Gates and Klaus Schwab.
@wrongthink @threalist @realcaseyrollins Honestly, I've seen that even before Reddit got popular. The news sections on most forums usually had people just posting links and maybe a the first paragraph of the article. And can you really blame them when most news sites don't even have comment sections anymore or are set to moderator approved, paywalled, and/or require a real name?
The "karma" system has also been a problem on traditional forums even before Reddit. GameFAQs had (and probably still has) something similar, and a lot of forums have "VIP members" to indicate long time users who have made "quality posts". It's part of the reason why I prefer imageboards because complete anonymity means that posts are judged by their content and not by the poster.
@realcaseyrollins @lina @rdr @threalist @meso He's either an idiot or a troll. He thinks that ancaps are for central banks.
@icedquinn @ghast@liberdon.com @threalist @realcaseyrollins This just reminds me why I never liked Reddit.

Are these people stuck in 2016? You also have an active community for COVID discussions. How behind are these people?
@lina @threalist @realcaseyrollins @meso Anarchy means without rulers.
An - without
archos - rulers
No mention of rules there. I do agree that anarcho-communism is impossible, but I don't want to go into another ancap vs ancom debate again so I'm leaving that here.
@threalist @realcaseyrollins None. The social news format is terrible. Up/downvotes and karma create a groupthink mentality and elitist culture that is even worse than traditional forums.
