My dad's alpha as fuck but it hurts to see him this way. I hate my cousin for bringing him to this; I can only watch as reddit takes hold of any remaining respect I had for my father.
Show him /r9k/. That should get him back to his roots.

well you missed your chance to convince your dad to be beta like his son by not introducing him to /r9k/
you could've been living a life where you'd hear him in the other room saying,
REEEEEE
BTFO Roastie!
Cuck!
and calling you senpai

sounds like he doesn't belong here

keked if the story isn't real, but if it is don't worry about it m8. reddit is only cringey on the internet because you're able to understand how in contrast to everything else it can be kind of dorky as fuck. to regular people who don't know much, or for people who just want a moderated discussion (I get it fuck moderation, but some people prefer to kept on topic) it's not bad. your dad will be fine, it's a pretty exciting thing when you all of a sudden find an entire site of people to discuss shit with.
what are his hobbies? if he's alpha maybe he likes carsintroduce him to /o/
It's simple you show him the red pill

>show your dad a 4chan board
I know it's /o/ but this is a fucking awful idea. Unless he loves it and we bond over shitposting together.

Yeah it's risky as fuck that's for sure, I've just found that the hobby boards (aside from vidya) are very normal and appropriate; I know that my uncle visits /out/, he's fairly e-savvy though.
