This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Redditors are communists? News to me.

[–] Lux@lemmy.blahaj.zone 26 points 9 months ago

Image from 2021, I was on reddit then, I am a communist. Checks out

[–] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 8 points 9 months ago (5 children)

They mixed up Lemmy and Reddit, Reddit is full of alt-right bigots

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 89 points 9 months ago

Lmao this is just as ridiculous as them saying Reddit is communist. Massive exaggeration in both cases

[–] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 33 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Can agree. On Lemmy now and I can feel the ghost of Marx over my shoulder whispering about the proletariat.

[–] JustMy2c@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago (4 children)

They follow me around and Downvote me, like literal ghosts...

Lemmy is tankie heaven

I was at +20, now at 3... Thanks tankies

[–] unnecessarygoat@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It baffles me that there are actually people who complain about being downvoted

[–] JustMy2c@lemm.ee -4 points 9 months ago (2 children)

You misunderstood me, I complained about downvotes being used as a political way to stomp me down (and make my comments invisible) by organized groups on a forum that should not be political.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It isn't so much that there is a conspiracy to downvote you, it is just that you comment shit takes. Which attracts downvotes.

[–] JustMy2c@lemm.ee 0 points 9 months ago

Sure, some are. Maybe most. But any and all thing that the tankies don't like, gets downvotes. Even if I don't write it and especially when it's not stupid.

[–] unnecessarygoat@lemmy.world -2 points 9 months ago

Please can you point to the organised downvoting of your comments

[–] Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 9 months ago (2 children)

If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole.

[–] TheSanSabaSongbird@lemdro.id 12 points 9 months ago (1 children)

That's the likely explanation, but not the only explanation.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 1 points 9 months ago

Or you surround yourself with assholes, or you are yourself an asshole.

One of them is a lot more likely.

[–] JustMy2c@lemm.ee 10 points 9 months ago

Alternatively, it can also mean there are a lot of assholes around. Especially of the tankie type. I just got downvoted from 20+ to 3. Will probably end up like -60 just for saying tankies suck.

COMUNISM IS A GREAT IDEA. what a shame their leaders are ALWAYS THUGS who spend YOUR MONEY IN MIAMI

[–] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago

Hexbears can't downvote, fun fact. There are others, though.

[–] reagansrottencorpse@lemmy.world -2 points 9 months ago

Go somewhere else then ya big baby 😭

[–] CancerMancer@sh.itjust.works 31 points 9 months ago

Nah liberals make up the majority of Reddit, the rightoids are just more active politically.

[–] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

That was the goal at least.

[–] DroneRights@lemm.ee 0 points 9 months ago

Lemmy is full of anti-drone bigots too
