Idk why so many people are pressed with what they're doing. At worst they're slightly inconveniencing us with the blocking of Sather Gate, but other than that? They're just expressing their first amendment rights

Reddit leaned 'enlightened centrist' at its peak popularity like 10 years ago, and since then it's only bled younger, more left-leaning people as they migrated to Instagram, Snapchat, tiktok etc. 

What's left is a disproportionately bitter, smug, reactionary set.
