Have you recently read an upvoted Reddit comment that was bigoted, creepy, misogynistic, transphobic, racist, homophobic, or just reeking of unexamined, toxic privilege? Of course you have! Post it here.

1. RULE X: SRS is a circlequeef and interrupting the circlequeef is an easy way to get banned. For instance, commenters are not allowed to say "This post is not offensive" or "This is not SRS worthy."
2. ShitRedditSays is not a downvote brigade. Do not downvote any comments in the threads linked from here! Pretend the rest of Reddit is a museum of poop. Don't touch the poop. (Commenting in linked threads is fine.)
3. No "ironic" or "satirical" use of slurs.
4. No violent rhetoric.
5. To our readers: consider this entire sub to be labelled with one gigantic trigger warning.

HOW TO POST

1. Only submit horrible comments that have been upvoted above a net score of +20. If a thread has multiple shitty comments, feel free to compile them in an effortpost.
2. Focus on the large, mainstream subreddits. Low-hanging fruit from obvious hate groups, circlejerks, troll subreddits, and the like can be submitted to the daily low-hanging fruit megathread located at the top of the sub.
3. Titles should be direct quotes of comments (NO EDITORIALIZING) followed by the number of total votes in brackets like this: [+30]. (Effortpost titles can be anything.)
4. If the comment you're linking to requires some context, just add ?context=x to the URL, where x is the number of parent comments you want displayed.
5. Don't link to threads you're involved in or shit you just disagree with
6. Don't submit [META] posts without contacting the mods first

Mansplaining is a word that so strongly resonated with people's experience that it went viral.
C*ntfused does not share that distinction. It's just a word made up in a failed attempt to make a point.
Maybe if women were a privileged class who were constantly confused in an obnoxious and condescending way, "c*ntfused" would make sense. But since that's not the case, people who try to use it to make a point instead reveal that they don't understand context.
Men are just angry that "mansplaining" so accurately and hilariously lampoons their completely un-self aware and privileged behavior.
[–]KittyWithASnapback -5 points-6 points-7 points  (3 children)
I think they're annoyed by the childishness of the word, like the fact that it's just two words crammed into each other and sounds really immature, if instead of using the word "mansplaining" you used the definition of the word people probably wouldn't have as big of an adverse reaction to it.
[–]laiki -1 point-2 points-3 points  (0 children)
Honestly I don't like the word because it gives off a bad southern accent vibe. I never understood why it caught on when there must be better names for the whole concept of men feigning superior knowledge.
[–]danthI'm your cuckleberry --4 points--3 points--2 points  (1 child)
I'll admit it's not as witty as "mantrum" since it doesn't rhyme. But you can't argue with success. The word has caught on for a reason.
[–]starshiprarity -10 points-11 points-12 points  (0 children)
"I'm not mansplaining, I'm just proceeds to talk over you and claim all your experiences are invalid"
Always brings me to tears, laughing and crying
[–]honeyinyoureyes -32 points-33 points-34 points  (0 children)
Oh, yes. We live in a world in which women are in power (just look at how SRS totally controls reddit!). Women's opinions are taken way more seriously, and we try to stop men from exercising their FREE SPEECH by using sexist words like mansplaining.
Bahaha. If only. :)

[–]ghoststory -16 points-17 points-18 points  (18 children)
this isn't necessarily the space to have a discussion but isn't going after trump's hands kind of like patriachal, like saying "look how puny his hands are, he's not a real man?" even with the fact that trump tries to like play into patriarchy and talk big about world issues, it still seems low. like we don't have enough to dismiss him simply by what he says you know? #OffMyChest

I think they are more ridiculing the whole absurdity of the hand/penis size question actually being discussed at national level political debate---as an example of these types obsession with toxic masculinity.
[–]Deecksy -12 points-13 points-14 points  (2 children)
The whole election just reeks of unprofessionalism to me. Why are the future leaders of the country trading insults like spiteful children, why are they allowed to say patently false and awful things about large groups of people and get away with it?

Since (IIRC VERY late 90's early 00's) when news organizations rushed and abused their relabeling from being a 'news focused business' to an 'entertainment based business'. Largely a part of how terrible the DMCA is written and was upheld in the early 2000's.
Modern American politics is heavily all about the drama now. Because of 'how fast' world news go many news companies are afraid if they wait on a story for details the other stations could cover it, get views, and already be on the 'next story' by the time a well written report is done.
Mix in twitter and facebook (to an extent) is FUELING this fire for politics and such to become more drama filled with 'twitter fights' only make things worse. This is why many have put Trump is the 'modern candidate (sadly any way you look at it)' because of how much he backs twitter for metadata and how many connections he has in the media to pull favors and screen time.
The complexity of this issue really comes up with just how 'hard' it is to actually make solid money in the industry to build up and sustain a company. Cultivated short lived drama is MUCH more profitable and gets more clicks than long thought out articles/reports that have thought and time put into it.
[–]kapparothAsa Whiteman -2 points-3 points-4 points  (1 child)
It's not that Trump is innocent of promoting that kind of bullshit, so it's kind of fair if he gets judged by standards he had part in upholding and gets ridiculed.
[–]ghoststory -2 points-3 points-4 points  (0 children)
maybe, it's a tough call. it almost seems to be playing into his hands (no pun intended)
[–]sevgonlernassauSJW of NASA -3 points-4 points-5 points  (0 children)
Trump's tiny hands is people trying to invoke the Streisand effect. Trump attempts to sue people that criticized him, thus tiny hands.
[–]agentbueller -10 points-11 points-12 points  (1 child)
I have really mixed feelings on this. I don't like to contribute to things like that, but at the same time (this is an example I've done) calling gamer gaters virgins sends them into an absolute frenzy. Now obviously attributing virginity to being a bad thing (especially because that's only really in men) is a shitty thing to do, but they just use thought terminating cliches to attack you and you're not going to change their mind. When is it okay to stoop to another person's level is I think what the question should be, and I've never believed the answer is "never."
[–]ghoststory -2 points-3 points-4 points  (0 children)
sure, fair enough, thanks for expounding a bit : )
[–]Iowa_Viking -5 points-6 points-7 points  (0 children)
It's mostly the fact that Trump himself first made such a big issue about it. To this day he sends pictures of his hands to the magazine that called him a "short fingered vulgarian." I doubt anyone would care if Trump wasn't such a fucking baby about it.
[–]kgbertonchucklecuck -3 points-4 points-5 points  (3 children)
I was so annoyed that Marco Rubio even brought it up in the first place, even more annoyed (albeit not surprised) that Trump dignified it by addressing it, and the most annoyed that people are still fucking talking about it.
I know it's just a meme and not worth my energy to be annoyed at. But by wasting our breath on that, we're diverting attention from actual dangerous things like his not-veiled-at-all incitement of racial violence to inconsequential, unsubstantive frivolities.
[–]The_RocktopusI read my Torah. Needed an editor. -2 points-3 points-4 points  (0 children)
It was not surprising. Rubio was the laziest of all the candidates. He did nor know what he was doing and did not care to learn.
[–]ghoststory -0 points-1 point-2 points  (0 children)
also fair !
[–]laiki -0 points-1 point-2 points  (0 children)
I don't think it diverts from more serious issues. Trump's rise to power is a serious issue and by ridiculing him you also lessen some of the sting of his bigotry. More people respond to stupid hand jokes than to serious discussions anyhow, so it's effective.
[–]mas9055IL NE FAUT PLUS QU'ON PURSUIVE LE BONHEUR -0 points-1 point-2 points  (0 children)
Speaking only for myself, I'm poking fun at how self-conscious he is about them. More mocking the toxic masculinity that leads a person to worry about that sort of thing in the first place.
ps: do agree with the rest, will bear this in mind going forward.
[–]danthI'm your cuckleberry -0 points-1 point-2 points  (1 child)
It's a joke that punches up. So far up that the butt of the joke is a rich white man who could possibly be our next president.
I think your concern is misplaced here.
[–]ghoststory -1 point-2 points-3 points  (0 children)
whether it's misplaced or not, I wanted to bring it up, and I'm glad i did!
[–]Ais3 -30 points-31 points-32 points  (10 children)
Notch is the ultimate neckbeard incarnate. Usually when good people have "fuck-you money", they try to help other people, not start petty twitter shit. Congrats on being a douchebag with millions.
But I also kind of don't care what people think I feel or what people think I think, as that has no actual impact on my reality.
Yyeeaah... you just wrote a 4 paragraph reply to reddit.
I'm sharing this with you because maybe I can get some of that sweet reddit karma, and also because I still care a little bit.
Yeah, you care.

Anytime someone has to say, "I'm not (a bigot, racist, sexist, etc. etc.)," they 100% definitely are.
[–]MapleDialgaPowered by incel™ -1 point-2 points-3 points  (1 child)

I've found that saying "call me racist" usually works better than "I'm not racist" for me, because then I do a double take and reconsider what I'm about to say.

      "Are you a bigot?"
      [doesn't matter if yes or no]
      "that confirms you are "
      You can always count on a redditor to be annoyingly pedantic. Always quick to be the devil's avocado.
      Sure, let me be as specific as possible, whenever someone feels compelled to boldly preemptively proclaim that they're not this awful thing... They are, 100% percent of the time, that awful thing.
      Now, with that said, go fuck yourself.

      But he started poor and then earned all that money all by himself, so that means he can't be privileged now!
      It's ridiculous. In his self-aggrandizing defense at the top of that chain, he talks about realizing that his "fuck-you money" means that he can speak out about stuff without worrying about his public image.
      That's a wonderful example of extreme privilege. He's totally not privileged, though.
      [–]cakevodka -3 points-4 points-5 points  (1 child)
      And according to his bio his his parents bought land and built a house when he was very young, had the means to buy a brand new Commodore 128 when it came out, and his mother was well off enough that she was able to support him for years after he graduated high school because he refused to get a job.
      Doesn't sound like someone who grew up poor, even though he claims so in a tweet.

          I never paid it much mind beyond seeing a press release. I think a lot of the appeal of trading card games comes more from the fact that it takes time, effort, and (let's not forget) money to acquire a competitive deck rather than the game mechanics of any given thing. This gives it a sense of tangible value, and if you take all that out of the equation it just becomes a mediocre strategy game with anime monsters or whatever.
          I can't say too much though because my own interest in trading card games pretty much dried up when I was 12. Some friends in college (weird how this shit resurges in people's early twenties) got me to buy a ten dollar Yugi-Oh starter deck to play with them, but I played a handful of games before giving them away. Just never really saw the appeal.

          He didn't even do it well. The game is full of shit code. Ever since Notch left the devs have committed themselves to fixing his spaghetti.

          That's pretty much the problem. Minecraft's success seems to have broken him, he apparently can't arse himself to do anything but sit in his mansion and call women names on the internet.
