If you wanna see redditors throw a fit you can literally just look anywhere a david brooks article is posted. The article is about why americans have gotten meaner recently, redditors spend their time in the comment section trying to narrow down the specific cause for this (not linking all the comments becuase there are a ton):
"lack of time⦠and that goes back to the need to make money in order to survive"
"a small handful of people have won capitalism."
"Got mean? Started off mean. Taking Indian lands, then going from there."
Reagan
Rush Limbaugh
2008
(((orange)))
"Newt Gingrich started it. Social media worsened it. Trump ballooned it."
"Low wages, high cost of living, non-existent social safety net"
"Fox News went live in 1996"
"Y'all ditched church and didn't replace it. edit: didn't help that literal Nazis took over a lot of churches"
Corporations broke the social contract in the early 80s
Neo-liberalism
"I wouldn't be surprised to find out that covid rewired our brains in some manner"
suburbs
Some choice comments:
americans work fewer hours nowadays than in the past, people dont make time for you because you suck

each of the subs it was posted in are the exact same thing + that acutally its totaly cool that theyre completely alone in life and have no friends and no partner. Enjoy reading braindead always online dorks talk about how this isnt really happening, and if it is then its actually a good thing
this is your reminder that dead internet theory is completely correct

In what communist revolution would a person with $100 million net worth be spared if I were a billionaire and I feared the French razor I'd simply move to another country instead of decimating my wealth anyway
