  • Circlebroke FAQ
  • What is Circlebroke?
    A place for discussing, criticizing or complaining about reddit and its "circlejerks." It's like /r/circlejerkattr(title) without the satire, or /r/TheoryOfRedditattr(title) for cool well adjusted people with high powered jobs, posting from exotic locales.
  • What does "circlejerk" mean?
    This postattr(title) gives a good definition, but in practice the term "circlejerk" gets used to describe just about anything.
  • Does my post have to be about a circlejerk?
    No, in the sense there's no objective way to gauge whether something is a circlejerk. Yes, in the sense that your post needs to relate to a general trend on reddit. See our guidelines below.
  • If reddit is jerking, does that mean that most CB threads are guilty of counterjerking?
    Do you realize how silly that sentence sounds? Not every instance of users taking a side on an issue is an example of "jerking" or "anti-jerking."
  • What makes a good CB post?
    A provocative, engaging, entertainingly vitriolic (and sometimes even useful) discussion about reddit with a unique, descriptive title.
  • Why are some usernames marked with special fonts or colors?
    We have highlighted the usernames of those who have routinely made positive contributions to CB by changing the font to Helvetica. Users who have flouted the guidelines in some way have been flagged with Comic Sans.
  • Is this place SRS-Lite?
    Yes
  • Why is everyone here so angry?
    Maybe they've spent too much time on reddit. Try not to get too excited.
  • Should I take this place seriously?
    Look at the URL. Do you see "reddit.com?" If so, remember that this place is vulnerable to the same problems it complains about. Don't forget to pat yourself on the back for noticing this.

  • Community Guidelines
  • Don't comment on linked threads, or comment here from linked threads elsewhere.
  • Your post should be about reddit.
  • Super low effort posts go to /r/circlebroke2attr(title). Social justice posts go to /r/openbrokeattr(title). Things the mods should do/the majority of meta issues in the complainpire are requested to go to /r/circlebrokediscussionattr(title).
  • Do not target individual users or call attention to arguments you are embroiled in.
  • Please use the np.reddit.com domain when linking to content in other subreddits.
  • No fighting words or name-calling. Do not engage in abuse or harassment of other users.
  • Irrelevant, off-topic or inane comments may be subject to removal.
  • We reserve the right to use and abuse our mod powers for any reason or even no reason at all.

Fuck yea! I was part of the group that led to this.
[–]Minn-ee-sottaa[S] 22 points23 points24 points  (105 children)
Please elaborate, what happened?
[–]marriedmygun -12 points-11 points-10 points  (104 children)
I really can't elaborate a lot other than to say dozens (dozens of us!) of people were involved in this and we kinda just applied a scorched-earth policy to get rid of him which involved some legal and some not so legal means. Some people are trying to do far more than this, including getting r/The_Donaldattr(title) removed completely, which is likely to happen in the next few weeks.
They really fucked up when the started hitting the front page with low effort NSFW shitposts. Reddit has been drafting up new terms of service, user agreements and other various crap to deal with it.
I'm sure someone's gonna leak the full details to /r/subredditdramaattr(title) soon. He definitely didn't leave willingly.
[–]nebukadnezzer_ 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
You disgust me. Silencing people you disagree with is not okay. You'd probably have murdered him if you could have gotten away with it. God damn, I don't even like the guy, but my god, you realize you make him a fucking martyr right? This doesn't discourage anybody. This proves to them that they're right.
There is literally not a single good thing about this. You pulled the literal worst possible course of action for everybody involved.
[–]posidonius_of_rhodes 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
You're a pretty big piece of shit if you Doxxed or blackmailed a moderator.
I don't care what you think, and that you did it because you disagree with them makes you a horrific person
[–]wiiztec 7 points8 points9 points  (5 children)
So in other words we're not breaking any rules so reddit is changing the rules so they can say we broke the rules before they censor us?
[–]marriedmygun comment score below threshold-13 points-12 points-11 points  (4 children)
Yea, it's almost like Reddit can do whatever they want with their own site or something. Who knew?
[–]posidonius_of_rhodes 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Yeah and so did those other illegal sites, or sites who doxxed. "It's my site" isn't an argument for whatever your doing
[–]wiiztec 3 points4 points5 points  (2 children)
Sure Reddit can take it's ball and go home because it doesn't like that we're winning but nobody likes the kid who does that
[–]bananabakes -3 points-2 points-1 points  (1 child)
Nobody cares what you think. If you don't like the fact that Reddit can take its ball and go home anytime, make your own Reddit with hookers.
[–]wiiztec 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
I guess you don't value integrity
[–]thebestpostsaremine 10 points11 points12 points  (25 children)
The degree to which the very playful /r/The_Donaldattr(title) rustles jimmies is remarkable. There is almost zero chance it will be removed, and if was it would be quickly replaced by another subreddit supporting Trump.
It's not against the rules to have a sub supporting a presidential candidate. In addition, the vast majority of the content being submitted is utterly benign. The few instances of questionable stuff amount to cherrypicking and could be applied to a wide array of popular subreddits.
At the end of the day, this is all pretty inconsequential. Hillary is a weak candidate who will get destroyed in the general election campaign. So start getting used to saying "President Trump" because it's going to happen, and the reddit admins won't be able to make this boogeyman disappear.
[–]marriedmygun comment score below threshold-15 points-14 points-13 points  (24 children)
Interesting how no one on Reddit assumed Trump stood a chance of beating Hillary until Bernie's campaign took a shit. Now everyone is saying Trump's going to win. You former Berniebro dipshits couldn't be more obvious or pathetic.
[–]thebestpostsaremine 6 points7 points8 points  (23 children)
Nah, been high energy from the beginning. But I imagine there will be a lot of former Bernie supporters coming into the fold. We have coats for them at the ready.
[–]BearlyBreathing -1 points0 points1 point  (22 children)
high energy ... coats
TFW your politics is just a collection of cringy forced memes. sad
[–]monzzter221 -1 points0 points1 point  (11 children)
What's even more sad is that it's more effective than stomping around taking yourself seriously.
Who's the real joke then?
[–]BearlyBreathing -1 points0 points1 point  (10 children)
Who's the real joke then?
Probably the people who take worthless internet points seriously enough to brigade the shit out of any thread or sub that doesn't conform to their politics.
Great job.
[–]vanbacon -1 points0 points1 point  (9 children)
All I here is Waaa Waaa Waaa Our candidate is losing.
Donald trump will be the next POTUS deal with it.

Still better than voting based on female genitalia.
[–]marriedmygun comment score below threshold-9 points-8 points-7 points  (7 children)
No, I'm voting for her based on her strong anti-gun stance.
[–]Minn-ee-sottaa[S] 5 points6 points7 points  (6 children)
I'm voting for her because I think all white men should be put in camps

And another mass voat.co migration will ensue while reddit falls into chaos and infighting for months and months. Have at it.
[–]Spitalian -2 points-1 points0 points  (12 children)
The more bigots who move to voat, the better.
[–]Alpha-as-fuck 0 points1 point2 points  (11 children)
Look up what the definition of the word 'bigot' is, and then re-read the comments in this thread. Especially THISattr(title) one.
[–]Spitalian -3 points-2 points-1 points  (10 children)
From Merriam-Webster
"a person who strongly and unfairly dislikes other people, ideas, etc. : a bigoted person; especially : a person who hates or refuses to accept the members of a particular group (such as a racial or religious group)"
Yep, those are the kind of people who should leave.
Notice where it says "unfairly". The people here have very legitimate reasons to hate CisWhiteMaelstrom. It's not bigotry to dislike someone who is actively destructive to society.
[–]Alpha-as-fuck 2 points3 points4 points  (9 children)
Oxford dictionary
"Intolerance towards those who hold different opinions from oneself"
You sound like you're probably a bigot too.
[–]Spitalian comment score below threshold-6 points-5 points-4 points  (7 children)
And what makes Oxford Dictionaries more legitimate than Merriam-Webster? (Note that it's not the OED.) The thing with dictionaries is that they are slow to add new definitions, but if they don't have a definition, it does not mean that definition doesn't exist. Oxford lacks a definition that Merriam-Webster has, but since Merriam-Webster lists it, it obviously exists.
Anyway, I checked the OED, and it has this definition:
In extended use: a fanatical adherent or believer; a person characterized by obstinate, intolerant, or strongly partisan beliefs.
This sounds a lot like people from /r/The_Donaldattr(title). However, I do not fit into that definition because I'm extremely tolerant. Though I will admit that I can be a bit stubborn. I suppose you could go with the "strongly partisan beliefs" part, but then aren't we all bigots?
But this isn't really the point. I want hateful people to leave reddit. That's all it comes down to.
[–]Alpha-as-fuck 2 points3 points4 points  (6 children)
I want hateful people to leave reddit.
What about hateful people that try to shut down subreddits and brigade with downvote bots because they disagree with the opinions of those in there?
[–]Felinomancy 5 points6 points7 points  (0 children)
And another mass voat.co migration will ensue
This is not exactly a bad thing...
[–]Highly_paid_orgy_pro -2 points-1 points0 points  (6 children)
if you go to voat, make sure you are ready for plenty of discussions about butt plugs.
[–]WEHRMACHT_BITCHES_AT -1 points0 points1 point  (5 children)
I'm already there. That's the thing. Banning the_Donald just means they'll set up their base there and be just as active here. It's pretty obvious that the CT and FPH bans just created a situation where they have a comfy spot on voat.co but hammer the comment sections of the defaults all day long so that locked and deleted threads are the new normal.
This same scenario will play out x100 with a Donald ban.
[–]BearlyBreathing 7 points8 points9 points  (0 children)
I'm still not seeing the downside here.
[–]Highly_paid_orgy_pro -1 points0 points1 point  (3 children)
what is your favorite subverse?
[–]WEHRMACHT_BITCHES_AT 1 point2 points3 points  (2 children)
In all honesty I'd have to say the voat.co equivalents of politics, news, videos, wtf since the content isn't censored like here. I pop in to the outright racist subs here and there but truthfully I just like the unregulated defaults.
[–]Its_2016_cookies4all comment score below threshold-9 points-8 points-7 points  (5 children)
You guys haven't learned a thing from previous bannings of large vocal highly active subs.
If the admins are stupid enough to ban /r/The_Donaldattr(title) myself and many others will sit back and enjoy the shit storm that ensues. The admins, mods, & you liberal tools do not have the numbers or the will to deal with the mess.
Go ahead put more nails in Reddit's coffin. This site's numbers already show an active decline.
[–]TheRighteousTyrant 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the idea.
[–]londonladse 6 points7 points8 points  (2 children)
Lol we hate Reddit as much you do. What do you think BRD stands for?
[–]social_psycho 3 points4 points5 points  (1 child)
Why exactly do you hate reddit? You have turned it in to your safe space.
[–]Ayy_1mao -3 points-2 points-1 points  (0 children)
Because it's never enough for the left to simply conquer something and remold it in their image. They get too restless, eventually the urge to feel like part of a movement becomes overwhelming and they must destroy it completely while rationalizing it as taking a stand against some kind of symbol of past wrongdoings.
[–]AssassinAragorn 0 points1 point2 points  (0 children)
Oh god, during finals? You damned tease.
[–]MightyYetGentle comment score below threshold-12 points-11 points-10 points  (22 children)
ok ya fucking dumbass, lets talk about the SRS mod takeover that happened right when all these NSFW shitposts started occurring. Specifically the cuck porn that was stickied the first ten mins after the changes.
The only people you guys have convinced is yourselves. People are well aware of the gay shit you guys are pulling.
I honestly thought you guys were a little more clever but desperation brings out the worst of us, doesn't it?
[–]Nixon4Prez 7 points8 points9 points  (20 children)
Your post history is spectacularly disgusting.

It takes like 30 seconds dude. I already had you tagged as a coontown user so I was curious.
[–]Minn-ee-sottaa[S] 8 points9 points10 points  (0 children)
That's nothing, man. If you look in the SRS daily chat for today I found some dude in SRSSucks who went through my last 250 comments.
And he still didn't get any of my personal information right.

Coontown was here like a year ago. Your autism levels are high.

    Check out /r/HateSubredditOfTheDayattr(title). The write up of the Donald is totally comprehensive and covers everything they have done basically. I think you can bring it to the table as a giant evidence dump.
