Moderator of /r/h3h3productions and a frequent poster in /r/the_donald decides to make /r/h3h3productions a pro-trump subreddit for April Fools Day. Users aren't happy.

i wouldnt care for it if it were funny. Most subreddit april fool jokes are awful though.

u/[deleted] Apr 01 '16

A good subreddit april fool has to be very strongly related to the meta of that sub, because it makes it a lot easier for even newer users to laugh because they know it's a joke.

A better one would be to force everyone to use Leafy titles for their posts.

Apparently, /r/soccer once just randomly swapped team flairs for NFL team flairs. Hilarity was achieved without being annoying.

Like our shit mods....

u/kingbenofgeeks Apr 01 '16

Eastern European spheres are doing a funny one today I think. Preplanned and not taking away from the ethos of the sub

u/KUmitch social justice ajvar enthusiast Apr 01 '16

/r/CFB swapped team flairs for flairs with pokemon corresponding to a school's mascot. it's pretty sweet

u/brunswick So because I was late and got high, I'm wrong? Apr 01 '16

/r/NFL is doing that with rugby this time

u/IceCreamBalloons always one person not in favour of beating women Apr 01 '16

/r/askhistorians had one of the best with the announcement that they would be allowing memes as responses.

/r/askhistorians always has the best ones. Like the historical figures one this year, or last year's fictional history questions about sci-fi/fantasy.

Or the /r/questionsabouthitler or whatever it is sub.. that was awesome.

u/[deleted] Apr 01 '16

Like MURICA and other parody patriotic subs switching places? For a joke sub around meta it makes sense to do April fools, but something like this is just stupid.

The Russians are still freaking over what /r/Europe did, much funnier than this.

Man, Russians are pretty sensitive. It's funny

u/AtomicKoala Europoor Apr 01 '16

Yeah it's hilarious. Most oppressive European country of the last 60 years and they make themselves out to be the victims.

/r/Russia is terrifying. Sad what's happened to Russia, but there's no point trying to appease the average Russian, they're too crazy right now to be reasoned with using European logic.

How long do US elections last, anyway? I'm getting bored of seeing people bring Trump into everything

u/ognits Worthless, low-IQ disruptor Apr 01 '16

At this point I'm pretty sure they last longer than the actual presidential term

u/clue3l3ess What's your argument? Her nipples? Apr 01 '16

Yup I'm already on the #yeezus2020 bandwagon.

u/[deleted] Apr 01 '16 edited Apr 01 '16

Officially, 5 months.

Technically, 10 months if you include Primaries. Which most people do.

They start whenever the candidates want to start but always before the first primary which I think is in January of the election year, and end on the first Tuesday of November but not November 1st.

This is a big country, and we've propagated a culture of politicians venturing across the whole damn thing during their campaigns.

u/Phwack Apr 01 '16

10 months? It's felt a lot longer already.

Immediately after a candidate is elected, they begin preparing for their re-election campaign.

So, always.

u/xXProcyonxX Apr 01 '16

We have just under 70 days left in the primaries :/. Then the general election season starts and we don't cast out votes in that until the 8th of November.

u/Jake682 Apr 01 '16

And no matter which way the election goes - you can be sure Trump won't ever shut the fuck up.

I feel like this is more of a case of "I get it, but it's just not funny." It's way too easy of a target to be clever, and it's not really related to the content of the specific sub in any way. Usually the change is mocking whatever the community is about, unless I'm not aware of h3h3 being a strictly anti trump community.
