What is /pol/'s opinion of reddit?
It's pretty much as smug, faux-superior, and insufferable as 4chan, yet a lot less self-aware and much more hive-minded and cancerous.
basically what you said. it's lame and has a static culture.
They know nothing about memes.
>>57319732
Liberal faggots with no appreciation for anything. They are the biggest fucking plebs on the internet.
>>57319732
yes i agree absolutely hivemind
>>57319732
I follow some certain subreddits for ease/speed of relevant news, but subscribing to any of the main pages or whatever they're called is asking for trouble. The culture is horrible.
Everyone on reddit comes across a cringey middle class know it all
Brainwashed pleb central.
>>57319732
Reddit is a good source for finding sales on stuff, thats about it

Reddit is only good for downloads, and statistics, and for darkwebmarketplaces& purification tests of mdma
Populated by thin skinned normies who limit their exposure to different opinions. Upboats not only suppresses dissent but promotes karma whore comments filled with "witty" puns. Fuck those nigger loving kikes
>>57321292
I'm talking about the popular subreddits. Shit like /r/animefigures is pretty cool desu
some non-default subs are useful. Default subs are cancer.
i can't help myself but try to redpill them. I've been banned over 50 times but it takes only a few seconds to make a new account.
Basically even hinting at the most minor of difference between races will get the attention of the mods. They must live very sad lives.
>>57319732
Any website with usernames and upboats is bound to be a circlejerk
>>57319732
The lack of self awareness is what gets me. They are the types who preach about how stupid the average person are while failing to see that they themselves are average retards. They did more to push me away from the left than pol ever did kek.
>>57322220
No, anon. They are PC GAYMERS AND ATHEISTS!
>>57319732
Better content but a worse community. At least when someone is retarded here you can assume that they're trolling but on Reddit people are more serious about everything
>>57319732
It's 4chan with mandated political correctness, aka cancer
Their sports communities are bretty good though
Decent once you get rid of all of the default subreddits
>>57322526
>better content
So, you either started out there, or you haven't been here for more than a year, huh, faggot?
Sure you'll learn more from the front page of leddit than the first page of any board here, but you're a fucking retard if you prefer their content over 4chan's.
I go there sometimes for /r/theredpill, /r/combatfootage, and /r/watchpeopledie
I also go on twoxchromosomes or w/e to troll.
>>57319732
They seem alright. Reasonable, easygoing people that often use funny puns (or fpuns, as I call them). I don't understand the dislike for them, and enjoy using their website.
I shill some shit there because there's such a large userbase. However it's extremely easy to get 'downboated' for the most trivial stuff. Mention the word 'fat' in any context any your comment shoots to the bottom.
>>57322807
agreed
>>57319732
Started looking at the 4chan subreddit for the first time to see what the site was really like.
I found that a lot of people over there hate America.
The point system that's used seems to encourage stupidity and embolden the self-hating liberal base along with the typical ignorant America-hating European, even when logic is used.
Based on what I've seen, I can see now why people here hate it.

I started with reddit because of a friend. This same friend told me about 4chan. Reddit is a place of faggotry and jews obsessing over internet points but /r/niggers and /r/coontown was a good time
>>57319732
I would say it's actually more aware of its cancerous hive-mind. /r/circlejerk is one of reddit's most popular subreddits and pretty much hits the nail on the head in terms of calling reddit out on itself.
inb4 "BACK TO REDDIT! REEEEE!". I've been on 4chan since 2007, before reddit even existed.
>>57319732
Autistic thieves.
They have legitimately bad tastes compared to 4chan on average in their subreddits for film, cinema, and literature. It's actually quite embarrassing how entry level they are. They think they're patrician for having watched 2001, pulp fiction and metropolis or M.

>>57320269

>>57319732
/r/European is pretty red pilled, but the other subs label them as racists fear mongering autists, so the liberal retardation is strong, though there are plenty of small examples in /r/worldnews where they have a consistent anti-muslim sentiment. The hivemind and in-jokes are cancer, just like /b/ except tame kiddie shit. The diy and meat subs are neat for tips, but the majority is just gay.
I like subreddits for shows and some games. Any subreddit that is atleast somewhat popular though is just filled with their shitty upvote culture where people just post asinine shit for likes.

Assuming we are talking about Reddit as a whole, not just politics. Reddit is good for specifics. The specific cliche subreddits are good, and sometimes more open and informative than 4chan. The more broad boards are terrible though, this anon described their type perfectly: >>57320815
>>57324182
there is a hive mind here, but at least on /pol/ dissenting opinions are just as visible, whereas on leddit they're silenced by the points system
>>57323529
The downvote system is so fucking retarted I sometimes question if these people have any fucking self-awareness at all. What actually compells you to downboat a fucking question? Like what is the fucking mental process in that? It's terrifying to think about really.
>>57323529
Unless it's a porn sub. "Fat dick"
Top comment every time.
>>57319732
At least on here you know people are retard trolls. On there everyone is convinced retarded trolls upboated to the top are confirmed PhD experts on whatever shit they talk about. I'd rather talk to a retard here than a troll propped up by a community retards there.
They try to be funny, and get upvotes, but they aren't funny. There's shills and paid mods too. Also, when there's something Jew-related that's popular I immediately scroll to the bottom comments for the antisemitism, which always has me laughing.
90% of 2015 /pol/'s userbase are redditors
>>57324078
I know right! And when people post videos of niggers acting crazy like beating up an old guy in korea/ japan, literally none of reddit is like "wow they shouldnt've done that"
>>57319732
Mostly but 5 years ago it was nowhere near as redpilled as it is now believe it or not.
You can see this in r/news.
Reddit is still overall a liberal shithole.
Dont lose hope my friends, I am Indian and I have had it with this global war on white people.
When it gets bad enough people will be forced to wake up. By then it will be too late and violence will be the only solution.
I used to be a liberal and even when confronted with the truth I would just ignore it.
If you faggots got together and created anon twitters you could reach people and eventually convert them.
Dont lose hope.
I only browse Ghazi and SRS (pbuf) because they BTFO redditeurs.
>>57324406
i suppose, the downboat system on here is literally "go back to reddit, dumb liberal"
switch liberal with kek, jew, nigger, etc
>>57324507
Pretty much, they come here for the "shock value" and claim that this board is satire.
4chan itself is pretty much normie haven ever since the media started reporting on it much more often.
Reddit is dumb people acting smart, 4chan is smart people acting dumb, as the saying goes
>>57324078
Stuff like the pic I posted and this makes me mad at first, but then good, because at least I know I don't intentionally block out the reality of issues just to look tolerant.
Luckily people here are more aware of things and smarter than those libs.
>>57323935
r/circlejerk is another product of the reactionary and cancerous ironic internet culture that spawned MLG parodies and filthy frank. The reason reddit appropriates 4chan culture like ignorant fucktards is the same reason they have r/circlejerk.
Pretty much there is no thought process involved in either of these things. They do it because they think it makes them less hypocritical or circlejerky.

All you need to know why reddit is universally seen as cancer.
They also tend to have this kind of passive-aggressive snarky tone when it comes to dealing with people they don't agree with directly or indirectly, usually with a touch of a holier-than-thou attitude and never a hint of playful banter.
-this is what makes them both irritating to listen to and easy to spot.
a friendly reminder that /pol/ is one of reddit's favorite boards
Their users are more fucked up than the people here. Braindead fucking mongs from happyland they are.
reddit LOOOOOVE their hilarious kek memes and le funny poo in loo jokes, after all
>>57325426
I already explained to you why.
>>57319732
Only a few subreddits are actually good like /r/tumblrinaction, /r/gonewild and /r/nosleep which means they aren't as cancerous as /r/Twoxchromosones which is fucking hell incarnate
Yeah bullshit
Every time there's a happening and I check out /news/, the top-rated comments typically reflect /pol/s views; this is particularly true regarding the recent immigration crisis and BLM stories.
>>57319732
I've never used Reddit, so I have no opinion of it one way or the other. Hell, if it wasn't for 4chan, I'd have never even knew that place existed. Chantards are excellent viral advertisers for Reddit for some reason.
From a superficial glace, it looks a lot like a forum which means it probably sucks shit just like all of the rest of them.
>>57325263
Speak for yourself, faggot

(seriously, I'm 90% sure the word "SJW" was imported here from reddit)
I've literally never been to reddit. Ever. The closes I've been is seeing screenshots here of the site, and the layout looks disgusting anyways.
>>57319732
Some parts are worthwhile (especially if you are into hard to find, very specific niche stuff), but I fucking hate their politics, both literally and internally. Reddit as a product is run like a totalitarian state claiming to be a free nation, while the users are full of themselves faux liberals, who would gladly support a dictator with the "correct" values. At least we are fucking honest. Anyway, awful in general, good in specific.

Actually--I take that back. I remember back in late 09 or so, 420chan word-filtered "Reddit" to "circlejerk" so I knew it was a thing back then. 420channers didn't obsess about Reddit and many of them apparently used it without causing the community to have an autistic meltdown.
Why does 4chan have such a hate for Reddit, anyway? Are you all ex-Redditors now? After 420chan died, I decided to lurk 4chan again and ever since, all this place can talk about it Reddit this or Tumblr that.
but really, your "opinions" don't fucking matter. what matters is the memes. and the shitposting. and the hilarious screencapping potential!

If you still regularly come to this shithole in 2015 you should just stop. If you're only of the last genuine nazis/lolbriterians around you probably already know /pol/ isn't for you anymore. It's just a place for underage faggots to waste their time playing pretend.

It's 4chan with more posters. Everyone on this shitty website posts on reddit hence why I see so many of the same shitty current memes and the same muh SJW and liberal boogeyman every second post
In fact everyone here hates on it (despite 4chan being anonymous so no one cares if you post there) as a form of cognitive dissonance to counteract the hypocrisy they regularly use and post on the site as well.
Its the Europe of internet media
>>57327644

>>57324693
except you don't get hidden and don't get nuked by the "ooooh negative points, I must downboat too" sheep
If 4chin's the same as leddit, why do you still see posts like anti-gun, pro-Bernie, climate change believers? Sure we're a bit of an echo chamber sometimes but it's an even ground on different opinions, unlike that front asshole of the internet
This board is basically edgy reddit.
Things they both love:

The major difference here and reddit is that your opinion won't be silenced if it is different from the majority.

hm..ausbro, are you anglo by any means? you might be the first anglo i agree with on /pol/
>>57319732
i use reddit to see how "popular" things are then come to 4chan to see the reality of it. The upvote system is an extreme hive mind promoter. 4chan and its anonymity allows people to express themselves without feeling judged with points. So reddit is basically filtered for normies, which is ok to a certain extent. Just watch out, you may get cancer if you accidentally read a /r/twoxchromosomes post. Reddit has a huge left wing slant to it but they are pro-gun and anti-BLM. Neither reddit nor 4chan are super secret clubs anyways so it doesn't really matter since there are millions of people on each site with tons of different views. That said, i don't post on reddit
>>57327849
>The major difference here and reddit is that your opinion won't be silenced if it is different from the majority.
Nope. Not silenced. Just mocked, hated and ignored. Mostly ignored.

So what. At least you aren't flat out censored like on reddit. If I say "Problematic" things on reddit I will get downvoted to death, and will lose karma. The lower your karma, the longer you have to wait between making posts. It's a system that only encourages the most politically correct and inclusive of opinions.
>>57328466
And pay for it afterwards amirite.
>>57319732
Personally I only go there mainly for sports, /r/nba, /r/nfl, and /r/soccer. IMO best sports communities on the web. Also use it for news sometimes, since they generally have the top news upvoted to the front page. Besides that, it kind of sucks. /r/politics is the worst though, it basically is FEEL THE BERN 24/7. They will literally never listen to an outside opinion since they are "always" right, and the hivemind is not to be questioned.

Username: Lambright
>>57319732
>It's pretty much as smug, faux-superior, and insufferable as 4chan,
It's much worse than that. Its upvote system is so easily manipulated by outside forces that entire that any comments section can be used to display certain viewpoint. The content voted to the top there consists of corporate advertisements or bland, inoffensive jokes to be forgotten the next day. The user base may be awful, but that isn't the worst of it.
The "bad" Reddit can be described as an experiment. What happens when liberals and atheists are convinced that they are the "right" ones in every circumstance. Like a scientist injecting a new type of bacteria, the most extreme opinion immedietly is accepted and considered the new rational.
Republicans and Pro-life movement entirely responsible for the PP shooting? Sure! No evidence to suggest that, all you gotta do is find some guy somewhere that says it's cool and immediately the narrative is intact. All Presidential candidates and Pro-life representatives denouncing the shooter? Don't talk about them because pro-life means you hate all born children, women and health providers and support mass shooters. It's true BECAUSE IT HAS TO BE.
The PP videos being fake? Sure! All it took was PP to issue a statement saying the videos are all magic and pay a longtime leftist group to review a little of 4 videos. Never mind another company with no political ties reviewed literally every video and said nothing was doctored or fake. It's all fake BECAUSE IT HAS TO BE.
Jesus didn't exist? Never mind that the issue has been closed since the beginning. Never mind that 99% of scholars agree Jesus existed with substantial evidence. Some atheist who sounds smart (meaning he agrees with me) said it's all a conspiracy, and this 22 year old fag somehow found all the little cracks and holes in the theories that thousands of scholars somehow managed to miss? All the scholars are wrong except the 3 atheist ones BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO BE.
Scientists could come out tomorrow and reveal that Reddit was created as a scientific experiment to test the "Echo Chamber" idea for liberals and atheists, and it was more successful than expected in creating thousands of little irrational, brainwashed extremists. The irony is that Reddit would accuse the Scientists of being Republicans, watching Fox News, and tell them they're wrong.
