I chose it because the words he says and how he says it perfectly describes my reaction when I woke up to seeing the trending list. That's all haha

Not a Trump fan necessarily, kinda fall along the lines of "let's criticize him as we go", but there is obvious bias here mate, let's not overlook that. I've always liked reddit because it seems to be pretty middle of the road, and while Trump isn't a middle-of-the-road kind of force, there is something to be said about the militant backlash we're seeing on here.

[–]ZadocPaet 29 ポイント30 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Though the admins do curate this list, it's still based on what subs are most trending from the previous day. Do you just want them to not include left-leaning subs when they're trending? Do you want them to add in a right-leaning sub that's not trending for "balance"?

It's not biased. /r/The_Donald has been trending multiple times.

[–]eastsideski 69 ポイント70 ポイント  (30子コメント)

It's common knowledge that Reddit leans left. Why is it "bias" that a substantial portion of the site was upset by a very controversial policy?

[–]fat_dennings 35 ポイント36 ポイント  (29子コメント)

It's common knowledge that Reddit leans left.

Close to 400,000 T_D subs begs to differ, and that's just the far right. Reddit's mods and admins are left leaning, their users however cover the spectrum. The content here has always been more moderate in my eyes, but in recent years the extreme and controversial nature of T_D has forced them to embrace far left attitudes more than they used to.

[–]_beekay 13 ポイント14 ポイント  (6子コメント)

taking a momentary break from my anti-trump circlejerking, TD's subcount doesn't mean much. half of the people posting there use throwaway accounts, so the relevant question is "how many accounts are active posters," and a lot of that activity is strongly reminiscent of bots (though whether that's a cultural thing or actual widespread bot usage, we don't know)

[–]RaitoGG 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (5子コメント)

Have you been to r/politics? They're strongly reminiscent of bots as well.

[–]_beekay 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (4子コメント)

they have over three million subscribers. the larger a subreddit gets, the more one-sided it appears (unless it's incredibly finely balanced) because an /r/politics 51% upvoted post can easily reach +5,000, whereas for TD-sized subs 51% upvoted is usually more like +50. the fact that TD posts are upvoted so rapidly and consistently, combined with the extremely low comment:karma ratio, is suggestive of people simply blanket-upvoting the entire page regardless of content - again, this may be cultural, but it's also exactly how bots work. it's a lot harder to tell because the TD mods actively encourage vote manipulation.

[–]RaitoGG 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (3子コメント)

If you compare posts from both subs with similar upvotes, the number of comments is actually quite close. Dunno what you're on about. Logically speaking, politics should even have more comments than the_Donald, seeing as they encourage upvoting (not "vote manipulation") and it's more likely you'll comment on something you think negatively of than something you think positively of.

[–]Not_The_Least_Wrong 36 ポイント37 ポイント  (9子コメント)

subreddit trending list response from what amounts to an austerity measure that is incredibly unpopular

far left

Stay in Voat or whatever other safe haven you'll create after this.

[–]fat_dennings 30 ポイント31 ポイント  (5子コメント)

The refugee ban isn't incredibly unpopular. That's really all I'm trying to say. Not to sound all "liberal media is brainwashing the masses", but the protesting and flooding of content from Trump detractors makes it seem like the opinion is more unanimous than it really is, which is what gave T_D so much traction in the first place.

And don't get me wrong, I still love reddit. I don't need a safe space, maybe just a couple filters lol. I just downloaded RES and I plan on doing that right now.

[–]BlackBoxGamers 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (4子コメント)

It wasn't that unpopular when Obama put a six month 'Stop' on processing refugees..

the State Department stopped processing Iraq refugees for six months in 2011, federal officials told ABC News

Mainly because it wasn't widely publicized by the media at the time.

Don't get me wrong, I think 'banning' people based on religion (Which people can lie about) Is silly.

Another thing I'm confused about, Why everyone is flipping shit over Trump wanting to 'Build a Wall' when there is and has been a fence along the boarder for years, which basically is the same thing as this 'Wall'. IMO: The "Wall" Is just a statement that Trump doesn't want illegals. It literally does NOTHING in stopping people..

[–]NonProfAccount 14 ポイント15 ポイント  (2子コメント)

It wasn't that unpopular when Obama put a six month 'Stop' on processing refugees.

The difference is that was a halt on all new visa's. This current ban is unpopular because people who already have visa's, green cards and permanent residencies are getting restricted.

Plus the whole dual citizenship thing, which is particularly in issue with Iran. Pretty much any woman who marries an Iranian man and any child of an Iranian man is considered a citizen by Iran, so your getting situations where people born and raised elsewhere are being caught up because they hold dual citizenship despite never being too Iran.

you've answered your question twice. the wall will achieve nothing while carrying an enormous cost, and it illustrates trump's tendency towards isolationism.

[–]camcamthermocam 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (5子コメント)

You know that up until the last decade and change, Trump was a hardcore democrat right?

[–]_beekay -1 ポイント0 ポイント  (4子コメント)

Not anymore, though, clearly. He's just about a textbook fascist. Xenophobia, nationalism, the scapegoating of minorities, the grand gestures designed to harness mass enthusiasm, militarisation, hostility to the outgroup, fostering of the idea that the right has been victimised, subordination to a single powerful figurehead...

About the only part he's missing is that he doesn't have support from traditional conservatives, in the form of Republican officials and a reasonable portion of the base. Luckily, that means it's basically impossible for him to succeed, but that doesn't make his actions and rhetoric any less fascist.

[–]camcamthermocam 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (3子コメント)

I'm pretty sure that Trump is completely uninterested in going down in history as the guy who turned the greatest democracy on the planet into a single party authoritarian regime... His ego alone would never allow for it...

The democrats seem like they would be more than happy to be the only party in government though...

You are wearing blinders if you think reddit is middle of the road. This site swings way left.

[–]griev3s 16 ポイント17 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Reddit's never been middle of the road. It felt less biased before this election though, I'll give you that. Lately the blatant left leaning been pouring over into nearly every sub.

[–]so_so_sherlock 17 ポイント18 ポイント  (1子コメント)

That's what bothers me. It seems like every other post on r/pics is political these days. I was hoping it would go back to normal after the election but it's actually gotten worse.

[–]the_light_of_dawn 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was hoping it would go back to normal after the election but it's actually gotten worse.

I have a feeling this election has heightened the politicization of reddit for a long, long time – possibly throughout this entire presidency, and beyond. Really unfortunate, but filtering /r/all has helped tremendously. I'm perfectly happy to become more politically active and aware (I should be anyway, as this election has made abundantly clear), but I'd rather come to this website to discuss hobbies and geek stuff, and not see politics spill into every orifice. I have other avenues for political discourse that are far less toxic already.

[–]iShouldBeWorking2day 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (14子コメント)

Middle of the road doesn't make something good, and bias doesn't make something bad. Bias is an inherent fact of human perception: you engaged in your biases expressing yourself just now, and I'm engaging in mine expressing myself. These are indelible facts of being human and to deny it is disingenuous. Reddit was founded by liberals, it is currently being run by liberals, and a free(ish) market allows them to run this business as they see fit.

More to the point, backlash against Trump's EO's is mainstream. Mainstream means money. Reddit has every incentive to highlight this outrage from a business perspective, politics disregarded. Let's not forget that this same curation team highlighted /r/The_Donald multiple times in the trending list, not once but multiple, as well as /r/HillaryForPrison. "Bias" nothing. Business more like, and smart business at that.

[–]fat_dennings 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (12子コメント)

Reddit was founded by liberals

The founders or the original users?

[–]iShouldBeWorking2day 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Well we know that Aaron Swartz was very socially liberal. Idk about his fiscal policies but I think it's safe to assume. As for Spez and Alexis, again, who knows - but I think it's pretty clear from their ongoing subversion of far-right subs and antagonism of the alt-right community that they are at least moderately liberal. More honestly: I think they're neoliberal, conservative enough to enjoy being millionaires but liberal enough to endorse socially liberal points of view.

As for the users, I don't know. Reddit 10 years ago is indistinguishable from it now, where it is one of the key content aggregators on the internet. I imagine they've received influxes of liberal users as well as conservative users, depending on the season and political climate. They are, after all, # 20something worldwide on the Alexa rankings. It's global at this point. You can accept all of their ostensible motions for clarity of information as copywriting, because this site is liberal in its core and I expect always will be.

[–]fat_dennings 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Thanks for actually giving me a well thought out explanation, I really do appreciate it. You kinda lost me in your last couple sentences though, how did you come to the conclusion that the site itself is liberal and always will be?

[–]Perion123 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (3子コメント)

I get what you're saying, but I think enough things have happened this week for this kind of backlash to be justified.

[–]Sethyre 3 ポイント4 ポイント  (2子コメント)

A justified backlash? Isn't that the same sort of logic used to justify things like Charlie Hebdo and rape? If they didn't want to get killed by Islamic terrorists they shouldn't have depicted Mohammad/if she didn't dress so slutty then she wouldn't have gotten raped, etc.

[–]unmondeparfait 81 ポイント82 ポイント  (49子コメント)

Well, let's be real. If you consider the world population as a whole, almost everyone hates Trump. I thought that's what his supporters liked about him? I've been told they think of themselves as ragtag underdogs fighting for some kind of religious kleptocracy where they sit at the feet of god-emperor daddy.

This is very much not the case.

[–]unmondeparfait 69 ポイント70 ポイント  (13子コメント)

I promise you I'm not trying to be rude or dismissive when I tell you it pretty much is. Not even the majority of America is fond of him, and fringe elements aside, Europe and Asia really don't like him either. He supposedly feeds on it, it "gives him his power" (I'm quoting t_d there).

[–]Chris204 12 ポイント13 ポイント  (2子コメント)

Maybe you should step out of your echo chamber once in a while and look at the world. Only 9% of europeans are confident that Trump will do the right thing regarding world affairs. Obama and Clinton are at 77% or 59% respectively. Get your head out of the sand.

[–]fat_dennings 13 ポイント14 ポイント  (9子コメント)

If you're referring to world leaders, there's an argument to be made there. As far as the citizens of the European countries go, their attitudes may surprise you. The people of Germany and France definitely have their fair share of people who see the refugee ban as being proactive in preventing what happened to their countries.

[–]Sethyre 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (1子コメント)

If he wasn't a popular President then he wouldn't have won the districts that were democrat before this election.

[–]swagtastic_anarchist 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

He won those districts because he got the white working class to vote in larger numbers than they have since before women had the vote. It wasn't that people in those areas were convinced by his rhetoric, it was that a part of the population that had previously not been politically active became politically active.

[–]ClickItIDareYou 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

then why does he apparently have 59% approval rating, then another says he's dropped 8 points and somehow that makes 42?

I'm sorry but i don't trust any place saying anything on his approval ratings.

[–]UnsolicitedGrandma 5 ポイント6 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Can I ask where you're getting this from? Whilst there are certainly right wing (and far right) politics in Europe, trump is considered a figure of ridicule over here.

[–]Caststarman 6 ポイント7 ポイント  (0子コメント)

Yeah a refugee ban is seen as good to some countries as they've already done the same. Angela Merkel of Germany was severely hated for allowing refugees. I did a report on the topic a while back. The refugee ban was basically the will of the people, or of those that were vocal.

[–]SgtPeppy 20 ポイント21 ポイント  (23子コメント)

57% approval rating

Looks like someone's triggered by the fact that he's actually around 44 percent and that's including the laughably conservative-biased Rasmussen polls.

Oh hey, that's still not "almost everyone". Congrats on proving my point.

[–]SgtPeppy 14 ポイント15 ポイント  (11子コメント)

  • I wasn't arguing "almost everyone", the person above me was.

  • Those polls are American, not worldwide, so I didn't prove shit for you anyway.

  • You are lying. Stop trying to bullshit your way out of this. 57% approval is laughable. But of course you wouldn't acknowledge that. Better that you have your point proven, right? Which, I'll reiterate: it wasn't.

I love how Trump supporters just have to project everything onto others though. Case-in-point: you're the thinnest-skinned people on the planet, yet you call everyone else triggered. I just have to keep that in mind when dealing with you children.

Awww, what's wrong? No more arguments to make? You have to resort to trying to hurt my feelings? (key word: trying) Adorable. It also proves you have the mentality of a child.

I love how the notion of you having to lie to have any sort of ground to argue on doesn't faze you one bit. You're just too stupid, huh?

I will say, you were by the far the quickest among the multitude of Trump supporters I've argued with to just completely abandon any attempt at rationality. So... you have that going for you?

No, literally don't give a shit and enjoy pissing off butthurt liberals.

Nothing you do will change the fact that Trump is president. Enjoy that.

57% approval is laughable

Just disregard the surveys then. Also disregard that Trump had ~48% of votes, and that having such a successful first week in office could have boosted his approval rating. Yeah, totally completely laughable.

[–]SgtPeppy 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (7子コメント)

You really don't get it. After I spelled it out for you. Oh my god, this is amazing.

You aren't pissing me off. You aren't pissing anyone off. I enjoy this. It proves how stupid you are. It reinforces my belief that Trump supporters are mostly projecting trolls. It proves that you guys have no facts or logic to argue with, so you use the only thing you have left: insults. And you're too stupid to realize the trap you're falling into: that we're not insulted, we're just vindicated every time you do it.

Just disregard the surveys then.

Yeah, all those surveys that don't exist. As opposed to the tangible link I sent you.

Trump had ~48% of votes

This is exactly what I mean when I say you have no factual basis to your arguments It's so laughably easy to see when you're lying. Although, in your particular case, you probably actually believe what you're saying, so maybe I shouldn't say "lying" but rather "too stupid to know the truth".

You're still off, those with green cards aren't banned, they are reviewed. While I don't agree with that portion, I don't really have a problem with other parts of it.

That said, you can't tell me there is no bias here at all. Whenever something political happens, it's always a given there will be at least one maybe two related subs but three? Not to mention they're all anti-trump, not broadly political and the Russia sub also has the anti trump vibe.

I wasn't under the impression trending subreddits had to be representative of the political spectrum. In any event, I should hope there's bias against fascism.

It amuses me that for all Trump supporters' talk of liberals being triggered and libtears, they're the first to bitch about something as insignificant as this, though.

Data, huh? Data, yeah. Let's look.

Look
at

data.

Bias, bias, bias. Yeah - confirmation bias. Yours, when you think you've noticed a pattern but are in fact making a value judgment based on a limited set of data points. It's reactionary commentary at its finest, concluding knowledge when it is intuition at best.

Now the OP's point about assuming your nationality was off-base, yeah, but I guarantee that hastily asserting knowledge on something inconclusive is a global phenomenon, borders discounted.

fyi i'm pretty sure subs which experience rapid growth don't report accurate numbers for a while - presumably it's only updated occasionally. it's fairly common for very new, apparently small subs to be trending.

(also you can see that the rate of new posts was very rapid even before it got posted to trending, so that's another hint)

[–]3MillionIllegalVotes 18 ポイント19 ポイント  (1子コメント)

In 2016, America has 11.1 million unauthorized/illegal immigrants.

Of those, 3.1 million live in states with ID requirements to vote (AZ/GA/KA/KS/IN/MS/ND/OH/TN/TX/WI), which leaves 8.0 million possible unauthorized adult voters.

Of those, 12.6% are unauthorized children, which leaves 7.0 million possible unauthorized adult voters.

Let's assume (as Trump does) that 100% voted Clinton and 0% had rejected ballots.)

Therefore, according to Trump, between 42.9% and 71.4% of unauthorized adults -- who live in utter fear that authorities will notice them -- registered and voted fraudulently. (Whereas just 58% of Americans voted.) And not a single one was reported for doing so: there were just four verified cases of voter fraud this election -- three of them for Trump.

And perhaps more importantly: After orchestrating the illegal votes of 3-5 million adults, Democrats forgot to put them in Wisconsin, Michigan, or Pennsylvania.

TLDR: 3-5 million illegal votes sounds really plausible, Mr. Trump.

[–]TheUncensoredTruth1 19 ポイント20 ポイント  (0子コメント)

On the other hand half his family and adviers are registerd in multiple states and from what the know from The_Donald attempts to organize voter fraud, probably 100% of all illegal votes go to Trump.

There might be some harassment on t_d but that would be pretty much it. Calls for murder? Voter fraud? Violence on an internet forum? Arson on an internet forum? Terror attacks.... on an internet forum? You just made this stuff up. You can't just make stuff up and hope it sticks.

I know our memes are lit af but that doesn't count as arson.
