Yep. Getting pretty eye-rolly at the number of posts/comments that say, "You are too stupid to make an opinion, so here's mine AND IT IS THE CORRECT OPINION."

I made the mistake of "defending" Trump (i.e., arguing that he's not really a fascist) with quotes and evidence and all I got in return were accusations of me buying into propaganda or being privileged. It's pretty obvious from the front page of Negareddit that there is a mainstream opinion here, and people are not accepting of dissent.

I'm not a fan of trump. I'm just tired of the "If you don't vote the way I tell you to, you're a fucking moron" posts.

What I find utterly hypocritical is that the Trump backers say exactly the same thing, and that gets downvoted here, too.

Hey guise dae both sides are equally right and wrong amirite

This post isn't criticizing ideology, it's criticizing attitude.

The OP isn't taking a particular stance.

"The OP isn't taking a particular stance."

How very Reddit-brave of him.

[–]jatjacob1 2ポイント3ポイント  (4子コメント)

No, I'm pretty sure the reason for the OP not taking a stance is because it has nothing to do with the point of the post, which is to claim that Negareddit is circlejerky, it doesn't say Negareddit's opinions are right or wrong.

Horseshoe theory is irrelevant here.

Going for rhetorical Olympics gold, looks like. Chasing those technicalities.

[–]escuradents 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Well, it's still true but I consider almost every community on reddit circlejerky. An up/downvote system where downvoted stuff gets hidden has this big downside. It doesn't mean some communities are less than others and less awful too.

Well, good.

I do agree with you there, then, on both accounts. It's a bit inescapable here, and even the pretense of trying to escape it is generally a Trojan Horse of "you have to roll out the red carpet for our neo-nazi barking or you are close-minded and rejecting our Valuable Conversation!"

Look what happened to 2XChromosomes. The dudebros invited themselves in, basically pushed most of the women out.

Are you going to engage any of the points I made or are you just going be smug and sneer at whatever I say?

If you don't want to argue you could just not reply.

No, I am taking a stance. I'm a Marxist with a particular position on politics and I disagree with Negareddit's mainstream opinion. My point is that most of Negareddit is simply fine with not taking it seriously.

I'm glad the advocacy offices of Asa Blackman, Asa Gayman, Asa Woman and Associates have picked up a new business partner, Asa Marxist.

[–]semiconductress[S] [スコア非表示]  (2子コメント)

Christ, that doesn't even make any sense!? Being a Marxist is completely different than having this or that identity. All it means is that I subscribe to a particular philosophy of politics and history that guides my understanding of our present situation, and being a radical philosophy it most likely differs from the common perception of things, such as in Negareddit. Can you please engage seriously, instead of making inconsistent one/two-line quips?

[–]AngryDM [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

"Being a Marxist is completely different than having this or that identity."

Not when you put it out there for the EXACT same reason: "Because I am (identity) I have special argumenting powers for this issue, usually by being contrarian".

I am engaging you as seriously as can afforded here.

[–]semiconductress[S] [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I never said any such thing! All I'm saying is that Negareddit has a pretty shitty circlejerk, which would be evident to anyone who disagrees with the mainstream Negareddit opinion and should be evident even to those who agree. That my own political position came up at all is because you and this other person weirdly claimed that I have no stance, that I'm one of those people who think that you have to take the middle road on everything.

no, two of several sides are just equally wrong ;(

[–]Sachyriel [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

I dunno, I never have thoughts terminated from Negareddit, but sometimes it gives me insight I wouldn't have gotten from default reddit. It can be circlejerky yeah.

[–]NuclearWarOnPoverty [スコア非表示]  (0子コメント)

That's a feature of Reddit as a whole.

The specialized subreddits and upvote/downvote system encourages ideological conformity and the propagation of low effort comments that cater to the lowest common denominator. Negareddit isn't somehow immune to this reality regardless of what people might say about it. The difference is that the consensus here tends to be divergent from what you would find in most other places on Reddit (especially if you venture outside of the metasphere).

I don't think we should be "accepting of dissent" if that means letting in every single person who might take umbrage at a post here to go on their own little spiel and derail the community's focus. This isn't a debate forum nor should it seek to become one. /r/changemyview might be what you are looking for if you are seeking something of that nature.

Yes, we are just as bad as they are. My objection to mainstream reddit isn't and has never been the tired echo chamber complaint. It is the content of the echo.

Can we just add "No one is obligated to entertain your bullshit" to the sidebar so we don't have one of these whiny posts every other day?

is it possible to have a counter so when a new one of these threads goes up we can see what instance it is

"Thought terminating"

Eye rolls to death

[–]semiconductress[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

It's pretty ridiculous that people who disagree with me tell me to think and engage some more! Debates in political philosophy and history be damned, my position is pretty obviously right and it's a no-brainer. If only everyone else had the same no-brainers as I do!

This might be one of the circlejerkier subs I've visited.

I mean, as a rule, that doesn't mean that it isn't. But it isn't in practice.
