Iirc the military (American, of course) is actually prepping for climate change. They might be evil but they do have to acknowledge the reality around them if they want to keep bombing innocent civilians or whatever it is they are up to these days.
reddit also had a problem with shitty moderation. i didn’t post a lot, but there was a good chance of a post just being removed for no reason. i remember i posted about water levels in gaming, in a popular gaming subreddit, and why it was disliked/why individuals liked them and it got taken down, from a gaming subreddit, because talking about a game mechanic was apparently off topic, in a gaming subreddit. about the only place that was actually good was the animal subreddits.
what are you on about? i can go argue about the latest seasonal anime if i want, i can go look at one person uploading little witch acadamia pictures every single day because they can, i can go find new visual novels, i can even just stare at touhou fumos.
i can’t definitively say the bots are keeping reddit afloat, but its the bots keeping reddit afloat. before i left the anime memes sub (the normal one, not one of the infinite crappy off shoots) was nothing but bots.
Yeah, you can do that. Bitcoin is anonymous and you could earn it relatively easy when it first came out. If you want to get real fucked up with it you could make even more by appealing to those early black markets and use your age as a cover, but that’s risk.
Red, easy. I was raised by total red necks (heh), complete hicks, and it did give me bottom of the barrel ideas about what i wanted to be. I could have healthier habits and work towards a better self earlier. Money? I’ll just be an early Bitcoin adopter and make all the cash I’d ever need. Hell if it came down to it i could make money on the dark web and use my age as a shield and tool. Friends? I could cut out bad friends early and find my future friend group whenever i want, I’d probably even have an advantage since I’m way more of a nerd now (see that first point).

Ads only work when you are searching them out yourself. Like, if i go to steam looking to buy a new game I’d be susceptible to a video game ad. And ads for established brands are complete wastes of money, I’m not gonna buy a coke because i saw an ad for it.
I chipped my back teeth on something, but it ain’t hurting so i am making an effort to not worry about it. Not like i even want to live to see my body breaking down in old age anyway.
Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed....
Not just a thought, these people don’t think through their political beliefs (to be fair many people don’t, but most others don’t make it a core part of themselves either), it’s mostly just aesthetics for them.
The driving force, the raison d’etre of the authoritarian mind is to be normal. Not be happy, not be rich, not be good, be normal, by whatever they feel is normal. Not only is it pretty pathetic, it makes them justify their beliefs with the idea that they are normal even though they are anything but.
