Charlie Kirk’s assassination continues to reverberate across the United States as investigators work to learn more about the killing and the 22-year-old Utah man alleged to have carried it out.
The only thing kids can do these days for fun is gaming you fucking boomers. You took everything else away from them and now you act like that’s some dark unknown space because, obviously, kids don’t want you fucks there to share the one place they have for themselves!
Calling reddit a dark internet underbelly is so funny to me. These motherfuckers only know how to eat hot chip and lie, cuz there’s no games on they flip phones.
In 2025 reddit is literally the most normie website there is. It’s the only place you can semi-reliably expect to see shit posted by other people. My normie coworkers complain about how they have to add “reddit” onto the end of their google searches to get anything usable.
Facebook is more of a dark internet underbelly at this point, just an endless chasm of AI slop where finding a human is a rare surprise. Reddit is just the last semi-functional website.
I think reddit is just as filled with bots though, the main issue is all the repost karma farming accounts.
Its just as easy to have an endless amount of accounts posting useless comments too, like I’m going to any front page post and its a god fucking miracle if the first 5 or so top comments are not completely useless jokes about the OP. As a result imo a majority of subs are completely unsusable and impossible to actualy see any discussion about anything.
Any front page post is always 10 top level comments with 50 replies all on the same variation of the same joke against the OP or the topic.
Is that “real” user behaviour? Perhaps but certainly doesn’t seem like it from my experience years ago before “AI”, but maybe I’m biased.
I think it’s more so niche hobby/resource subs that aren’t really targeted by bots. Stuff like the sysadmin sub or the various subs for individual applications are super helpful to me as someone who works in that field. What you’re saying definitely rings true for default subs or very large subs though.
