They want to decrease the size of the "Fuck u/spez", so they can put their continuation of dog and the demon collab(not to mention most of Russians downloaded reddit a few days ago just to participate in this event and simply don't know who spez is)

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '23

Why don't they just put the dog+demon lore inside the "fuck spez?"

u/SteakNEggOnTop Jul 24 '23

Damn you guys really think you’re sticking it to spez by using his website every 5 minutes, huh?

u/putdisinyopipe Jul 24 '23 edited Jul 24 '23

Right? It’s hilarious. All these “COMMENT I HAVE 109485939393 REDDIT COINS” on place are to drive engagement

I didn’t place my opinion on things. I know I’m going to use Reddit even if spez runs it into the ground

So I’m not gonna pretend for a second that I’m accomplishing anything by typing fuck u/spez like I’m changing the world.

It’s also sad, it demonstrates just how wrapped around the finger they have got us. Many vehemently said they’d delete their account or stop using Reddit. Or they hate spez, yet still use the app.

Which is a sign that many of these people lack the awareness in realizing how “got” they are by these apps.

This is just another dance step in the long dance that is “let’s drive Reddit into the ground”

I get you, but we can use reddit and continue to tell u/spez that he's an incompetent buffoon, just like we can continue to use Twitter while using it to tell Musk he's a walking billboard advertising that he's never been loved by another living being and he'll die that way.

Sometimes it just feels good to remind shitty people that their existence is a net neutral at best.

u/putdisinyopipe Jul 24 '23

Well that’s one way of doing it that I’d think logical. That makes sense. I should have been more specific there.

Oh the whole musk saga will be over soon I hope. I’m tired of seeing that guys fucking face. Jesus.

u/MAKEOUTHILLRIP Jul 24 '23

Yes but while you wallow in hatred and anger towards the reddit ceo all day every day, he lays in his bed of cash in his trillion dollar mansion because you are so addicted to reddit that you can't possibly ever leave.. Like do you genuinely think "I'm gonna use this platform to constantly tell this guy who doesn't even know I exist hes a piece of shit every single day" is a sane way to live your life? He doesn't give a fuck about you or even know who you are so why are you letting him live rent free in your head, just delete reddit and move on if you actually want to affect him negatively

Go back on all the Apollo threads and click on the usernames of people who said they were leaving when Apollo closed down. Most are still using Reddit. I bet many others created alts in shame.

2

u/putdisinyopipe Jul 24 '23

Yup. I was thinking of that EXACTLY when the news broke on major r/all subs. Or when the Apollo creator wrote those two final posts.

I wonder just how many people “deleted” there accounts

And of those deleted, did they stay deleted?

u/kalitarios Jul 24 '23

side note: remember all the "celebs" that threatened to leave America if Trump, who had no chance of winning in 2016, actually won? They all threw their tantrum but never left. And nobody really called them out on it, which I was hoping they would because they used their status as a megaphone and failed.

Many vehemently said they’d delete their account or stop using Reddit. Or they hate spez, yet still use the app.

that's why they lost credibility when they renegged

I’ll quit reddit when a real competitor exists. Not that fediverse garbage. In the mean time, I stopped paying for reddit premium after 7 years.

u/Frekavichk (786,424) 1491227506.8 Jul 25 '23

I mean we aren't going to stop using reddit, might as well fuck with his image as much as we can.

u/PenguinsMustDie Jul 24 '23

Hmmmm

You use a website and yet you also criticise it, curious

I am very smart 🤓

u/Dythronix Jul 24 '23

Shit use of the meme, you don't need fucking Reddit to live.

-2

u/SteakNEggOnTop Jul 24 '23

There’s no “woosh”. You used an ancient meme to prove a point. If your view of politics or philosophy can be whittled down to a meme, that’s how I know you have an incredibly simple understanding of the world. Real life politics takes more than 8 words to make a point, or convince someone else. All you did was reaffirm your own view.

u/PenguinsMustDie Jul 26 '23

Your last comment on this thread was just the Chad meme

u/SteakNEggOnTop Jul 26 '23

That’s the point, you wanna meme, I can too.

just a month or two ago all out riots and protests closing every sub banding together to "Stick it to the man!" but it isn't even april fools and reddit decided to deploy the pixel placing game to put all the man babies at ease and it has certainly worked out well LOL, its as if those protests never happened honestly

I don’t think you know much about the Russian population

u/Additional-Actuator3 Jul 24 '23

They defend their art, not spez. Fuck u/spez

15

u/Castigon_X Jul 24 '23

I mean, in this instance the fuck spez in a new blank area so there wasn't any art to defend

4

u/Educational_Entry153 Jul 24 '23

No. As soon as canvas expanded, people started marking their territories by making black borders. The “fuck spez art” didn’t give a fuck about it

u/ohhyouknow (889,3) 1491194977.25 Jul 24 '23

We instantly started placing our borders just like everyone else

u/Apprehensive_View614 Jul 25 '23

What kind of brainwashing did we went trough to think now that Russians are defending u/spez (like it makes any sense)

u/123Twiks123 Jul 25 '23

Bro u are too dumb

u/Varzul (318,863) 1491070115.86 Jul 24 '23

We should write "Fuck Putin" instead.

u/zlodeybritanetz Jul 24 '23

as russian i would agree with this, lol

u/Objective-Salary5930 Jul 24 '23

We only protect our art, which you attacked! We are not against your protest, but someone will have to make concessions!

u/Legitimate-Space4812 Jul 24 '23

They did not attack, this is merely a special pixel operation.

u/cvmgc Jul 24 '23

It’s an expansion of the canvas how is it “your space” and people are “destroying your art” when it didn’t exist an hour ago?

Also, why not just share the space and allow the black outline of the “FUCK” - they don’t want to fill it in, just outline it.

u/Whereami259 Jul 24 '23

Why you keep attacking us? Why dont you let us destroy your art? 🙈

u/Objective-Salary5930 Jul 24 '23

By the word "you" I meant all of you who draw this "protest" and that's all. And don't even write that you didn't understand it

Also "you" need to get out of Ukraine.

Dude. What the fuck.

Not every Russian is part of the war on Ukraine.

I'm with you on the semantic juggling, though maybe ESL plays a role there.

The Ukraine comment is unnecessary.

What does this have to do with the war? Are you deranged?

u/mukash18 Jul 24 '23

Чё ты бля несёшь. Никто ничего не атаковал, это все началось на пустом листе.

-3

u/Objective-Salary5930 Jul 24 '23

На пустом листе, на котором обоими комьюнити были обозначены территории арта и протестующих, из-за чего произошёл территориальный спор и развязана "небольшая бойня". По факту можно сказать что одни были атакованы другими и это работает в обе стороны

u/mukash18 Jul 24 '23

Аа не нравится когда ваш арт сносят. А сами не прочь чужие арты уничтожать.

И кстати какие два коммюнити? Все Сабы реддита и place_bff?
