That’s what I used to think until a few of them shared their pictures and stories and they sounded believable so I don’t think it was all fake. But that’s all you need, right, just a couple of voices to point to, to seem justified in that ridiculous crusade.

Also r/detrans. What an enormous shithole full of people with awful takes and a conscious stream of hate. It had a huge slant against science and parroted misinfo about the human body and society, always punching down on trans folks, though they pretended not to. I know a few of them were detransitioners, but I’m convinced that the entire sub was planted by some conservatwat to rally hate.

I can’t remember which one, but there were a couple filled with crypto millionaire-wannabes with a libertarian slant that would share tips that always seemed off. And people in the comments would be so sure that THIS time it would be the big break if people just “hodl” or shorted a stock but were literally thousands in debt for investing everything in Truth Social. It wasn’t r/wallstreetbets but it rose shortly after r/thedonald fell. That’s all I remember because it felt like staring into the sun. *shudder*

Same for me but with Dune/Star Trek vs Star Wars. I don’t get Star Wars and refuse to accept that lightsabers are a real weapon.

Pshh, I do. Fuck that guy with a freshly sharpened sword dipped in kerosene and set alight.

Guise, I think OP fell asleep. Quick, raid their house and prank call their grandma!

Makes sense. It has definitively stopped child abuse in churches! Oh, wait.

When they do they’re called priests.

Same thing I thought at first. “Oh, so like that one feature from Google Maps” Nope, just some shitty tech bro tech.

What’s funny is that “barato” means cheap in Spanish and it’s sometimes shorted to “bara” in some places. So a cheap copy.

Careful when programming near long, colorful socks.

You should see Uncle Paul on the weekends. No man escapes that grizzly!

Damn, those midwesterners sure love maple and hockey!

The revolution has begun, brother. Join the deep dive brotherhood today!

I don’t know what that means but they sound confident. Let’s do it!

I’ve noticed that sometimes my cat will meow from the other room so I’ll answer asking what’s up, making sure to say his name, and he’s usually content with that unless he approaches me. 🤷‍♂️

Hire for what, a janitor? Sounds legit.

1 month from now…

Expectation:

“Haha notiddies. Man, what a meme that was!”

Reality:

Me not remembering ever seeing this post in my life.

My guess is It’s probably cheaper and has much greater variety. You can watch anything from any streaming service through one single interface at the price of one service.
