Now, you probably assumed that /r/India was either extremely radlib from the start or like most subs got radlibbified after the 2016 election but that's not the case. The process started a few years earlier in early 2014. One of the things that you often learn from using forums like reddit is that you don't need biased moderation to turn any discussion site into an echo chamber. A handful of dedicated autitsts constantly arguing, abusing, and harassing users while being online 24/7 can turn any forum into a toxic shithole that no sane individual wants to visit on a regular basis which is what Hindu nationalists tried to do in /r/India in the run-up to the 2014 election. Now, before this /r/India mods weren't particularly heavy-handed with their moderation and they were also mods of /r/Bakchodi (which would later turn into the Hindu nationalist shitposting sub). Of course, the Hindutvadis weren't content with that , so they tried to do what they do best and organise brigades and vote manipulation to tilt the subs' political leaning rightwards .

This is a detailed recap of the events someone did the year after. Saved me the trouble of actually putting in effort for this post .

Ladies and gentlemen bear with me for the post may be long. I bring to you from that exciting corner of reddit, /r/india, which is small but abounds in dramas, the best they have yet to offer us. This is the first anniversary of the great drama.

Around early December 2013, with National elections just five months away, supporters of different parties get the idea that reddit is the place where elections are going to be decided. Heated discussions are everywhere but it is all unorganized and no party seems to be getting an upper hand. Amidst all this, there emerges a hero, /u/modi4pm. He creates a subreddit /u/namoarmy and collects all the supporters of Narendra Modi and makes the mods of the sub. He gains a reputation for being a die-hard Modi supporter with posts like Sad love story of modi4pm, Thanking members for creating a pro-Modi subreddit, Promotion of NamoArmy, Luring the Modi supporters by using the photos of his girlfriend, A well planned marketing strategy to promote NamoArmy, Predicts the future, Indulges in occasional poetry, Predicts the future of AAP, Takes a tough stand against communists, Gives advice to girls on masturbation techniques, and finally takes Narendra Modi campaign into gonewild.

A vote brigading ring of 10-15 people is formed and easily carries most of the days with pro-Modi news at top. Nobody has any idea what is happening. NamoArmy is happy...until

2 Jan 2014: /r/india best of 2013 awards. /u/modi4pm is awarded best commentator in spite of being new and an obvious troll. This thread in itself makes an interesting read for the kind of hero worship /u/modi4pm enjoys.

4 Jan 2014: Bombshell is dropped. r/NamoArmy and /u/modi4pm have been banned from reddit. Allegations and counter allegations. Some redditors think /r/india mods have brought down the ban hammer. Others want supporters of rival party to be banned to bring a balance to the sub.Off course the reddit gold award as best commenter for /u/modi4pm is mentioned. One gentleman thinks mods are right into vote brigading.

5 Jan 2014: Mods make a post and bring in far-reaching reforms.

5 Jan 2014: One user /u/chief_platooffers mod logs of /r/NamoArmy. He was the harbinger of bad news when /u/modi4pm was banned.

7 Jan 2014: /u/chief_plato delivers the logs. Logs don't exist anymore.*

9 Jan 2014: /u/yekyen makes a post. He is /u/chief_plato. He is /u/Namo4pm. Yes, you guessed it right, he is also /u/modi4pm. All heck breaks loose.

Someone's primary account is banned and he wants /u/yekyen's address so that he can break his eggs.

Another user feels betrayed and wounded because the great chief modi4pm has misused his trust.

Some can't help admiring his great work.

Jan 10 2014: Three more users are banned.

One user is philosophical, matrix style.

Some are happy.

Some don't give a frick.

Sad and unfair

Some are conflicted and can't decide for sure.

Jan 11 2014: New revelations on latest drama on /r/india. Coming soon. Django is unchained and he wants to take on the commies who betrayed his masters. This time everyone is disappointed as mod warning means the real-life identity and main reddit account of /u/modi4pm aka chief plato aka yekyen is not revealed and everyone breathes a sigh of relief. Django, although unchained is banished from the realms of reddit.

Jan 12 2014: Someone with video editing skills immortalize the scandal. In Memoriam - The Kulcha Warriors Who Fell.

May 16 2014: Narendra Modi led NDA is handed the most comprehensive victory in Indian General elections in almost 30 years, winning 340 out of 543 seats. Narendra Modi is sworn as Prime Minister ten days later. All those who sacrificed themselves, it wasn't wasted.

Some funny comments from the mod logs :

I love Ann Coulter though. She's the only woman who's impressed me in my life, she's too thin though. :( Although the heavyset housewives are another breed who're quite individualistic,(like Meenakshi Lekhi.) They' one I like. But agree, today's Indian women are mostly sham. Very few young women I've seen whom I'm comfortable with talking on the same level.

--

and girls in general are getting more power everywhere. But bahut ganda trend hai, what can you do. I don't mind the matriarch type woman, I hate the narcissistic liberal woman who thinks it's nobody's right to comment or watch her if she's wearing shorts. Or the submissive woman jo merko naive lagti hai. Gujarat ki bandiyan nahi pasand yaar. Bahut chhoti soch hai.

problem is thanks to universal suffrage, now women and poor outnumber the rich and in electoral politics where it is all consensus and legitimacy, you cannot win with the right wing ideology and logic. After Regan it is all democrats in US (Both time Bush won, it was fraud). Electoral politics is all about legitimacy and right wing always lacks that as convincing the masses (women and poor which form majority is daunting task).

More Ann Coulter and Jenny Mcarthy(who?) Love:

I too like Ann Coulter and Jenny McCarthy. :)

Ann Coulter and Jenny McCarthy I can tell you teh right wing women are fun to be with. Lefties are bitches and entitled whores. They feel that they are here and doing something grateful for humanity. It is weird. If u marry them ur life is heck.

The guy who fricks Jenny McCarthy can lay a claim to having the best s*x in the world. She's a walking sexbomb. And Ann Coulter. I think we'd be inseparable buddies. s*x? I don't know. modi4pm, palin is almost exactly the submissive Gujarati girl. Bas Alaska thi chhe.

I said na, agar independent nhi hai unlike in US, they'll reflect society. I know Gujarati girls yaar, they are very naive, very submissive girls hain. In places like Delhi, metros in general, girls are independent.

Anyway, much of the mod logs are them obsessing over this Reddit favourite political party and foids:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aam_Aadmi_Party

If you ever feel that mods are being harsh towards wingcucks in rDrama, remember incidents like this . Wingcucks aren't interested in discussion, they just want to overrun any platform they can get their hands on for their "cause". They're always "on message". The purged rightoids went on to take over /r/Indianews and then /r/Indiaspeaks was started as a place meant to be "politically neutral" and guess what happened? Yep, It became rightoid central .

!bharatiya !fellas Discuss.

Online fitness communities have a huge problem with posters asking stupid questions about weight loss because "eat less" is apparently a difficult concept. Lucky for us, the brave OG /r/fitnesscirclejerk users were around to shit on people all day. This image explains FCJ

I'm way too lazy to link funny comments, find your own drama, it all starts with a fairly simple post.

Best way to lift to keep numbers/strength while losing 5-7 lbs?

Im just doing 5x5 right now, i think Starting Strength, but I need to lose about 5-7 lbs . Should I just keep lifting the same amount of weight that I am now while trying to lose weight?

I hope that made sense, Like If I lift more I would get bigger so should I just stay at my current lifting numbers or even lessen the weight im lifting?

It takes only 2 minutes to get a response

Take a dump

Edit: Thank you to whoever downvoted me for asking a question that was not covered in the FAQ. You all are a great help to people looking for help. While answers like "Take a dump." are the top comment. /s No wonder people say avoid Fittit.

EDIT: THANKFULLY THERE WERE PEOPLE HERE WHO PMd ME WHO WERE IDIOTS AND COULD ACTUALLY READ THAT ANSWERED MY ACTUAL QUESTION WHEN THEY SAW IT WAS NOT ANSWERED IN THE FAQ.

THE IMMATURE LOSERS WHO ARE POLLUTING THIS SUBREDDIT SHOULD PROBABLY TRY AND IMPROVE YOURSELF. ITS SAD WHEN PEOPLE WOULD RATHER RIDICULE THEN TEACH. PLEASE DONT REPRODUCE.

Now normally this would end here, but for some reason he keeps posting and people just keep telling him to take a dump, (i'm not quoting stuff, go find all the take a dump easter eggs)

1. Fittit, why do responses like "take a dump", which is against reddiquette, get upvoted when someone asks a question about something that is not covered in the FAQ?

2. I got -90 karma from 2 topics on r/Fitness in 1 hour because people cant read. What silliness has happened to you on reddit?

3. He even makes his own SRD thread Downvotes rain down after downvoters keep answering question that was never asked.

4. ATTN Mods- FAQ Addition Request: Can the following be added to the FAQ so beginners aren't ignorantly ridiculed for asking for info that is not covered in the FAQ please?

A month later he comes back to gloat

Thanks going out to the select few Fittit redditors who actually provided requested information. I hit my goal with no reduction in numbers.

A 7 lb. dump? Darn. Must have hurt dat dere O-ring

A good redditor posted this, unfortunately your sad kind outnumbers the opposite.

Ugh. Why do people like you exist? You are not the dark nor the light in a painting. You are simply without purpose. I can't imagine a life that involves saying the foulest of shit just in hopes of making someone, somewhere, feel a little bit worse.

The worst part about your bullshit, is that it wasn't even shocking to the point where some people could possibly find it funny. You are the burnt edge of a poptart. Something that doesn't even have the impact to ruin... just something that needs to be broken off and discarded.

How meaningless of a life you live.

This spreads to other parts of reddit too.

SRD: OldManSteve asks for weight loss advice in /r/fitness, but goes mental when someone tells him to take a dump, Drama Spills everywhere

FCJ: This just in: OldManSteve still being told to take a dump

Watch me steer OldManSteve in the right direction

More random content

A year later this is still going on and /u/oldmansteve comments in /r/fitnesscirclejerk
