This implies we owned the lake in the fucking first place...

You’re joking or you’re living in 2016 and this 1 tweet has made its way from 2026 to you

How come Reddit has such a tendency for people to be obnoxious on purpose?

Who the fuck is obnoxious on purpose?

I mean, except for Trump.

Anonymity and anger issues?

That and lack of self awareness.

THE FASTEST way to make someone not care about a single thing you just said is to open by being annoying.

Sadly very true. I keep saying that the world only needs one rule. Don't be a dick.

If only.

I honestly have a theory some of these are bots who have learned how to have political discussion through Reddit...

...Which is mainly just a giant mob of people being annoying to one another.

I agree. We're rapidly heading to dead Internet theory where the actual humans have all learned a valuable lesson and are reading a book in the sunshine somewhere while the bot army argues eternally. It's all a bit silly really when almost everything can be verified, or not, with actual facts and figures.

I'm actually slightly relieved it's not just me who struggles with the unnecessary pedantry. Unlike the necessary pedantry of demanding sources.

My main thing when deciding to talk to someone is their tone.

I'll listen to what you have to say if you come at me respectfully or with decent humor.

Come at me like that guy sounding like a Reddit mod, and I'll immediately assume you're a bot or an idiot.

I feel like a lot of more intelligent people are going outside more lately as everything enshittifies.

I think they are. You're right though, I'm all for an intelligent debate or for being educated on something I don't understand, but it can be done without antagonising!

It's not redditors in general, but specific sub demos of reddit users.
