It’s not as clever yet, thought, as the demographic is rather small. I was amazed that reddits’ world news the comments were almost uniformly not only anti Hamas but pro Israel. I mean not to pick a side here, and not saying theres not astroturfing here. However there’s more diversity of position, whereas the reddit thread felt almost strangly like everyone was just saying stuff, but not carrying any meaning. Felt like the last scene of body snatchers where even the protagonist turns out to be snatched, in a way.
The amount of sophistication is lower. There are people holding extreme positions but quite often they self identify and aren’t state sponsored most of the time.
Yes I was there, however I find the beans thing more silly, whilst they poop thing a bit distasteful, however quirky it was.
The good thing is that the entire user base gets to experience these, which was much the same in early Reddit. Present day reddit had few emergent, site wide memes anymore as it’s too splintered and too farmy imho.
