The image is a reddit post with the following text (automatically transcribed):

I remember I got into an argument on reddit awhile ago with a person over Italian food. It got to the point they were following me into other subs to harass me. I clicked on their profile to block them and their most recent post was them drinking their own piss on r/piss. At that moment I realized I had spent so much pointless time arguing about the taste of food with someone who drinks their own piss as a hobby. This site is a shit hole.

Humanity is a shithole. Social media is a cross-section.

[–] Firipu@startrek.website 85 points 2 years ago (11 children)

I hate that pov so much.

Humanity is fantastic, wonderful, loving and amazing. It's not a shit hole.

I'd argue society is really broken in some places, but not humanity.

As for Social media: it just brings out some dark side in some people. The vast majority of people on social media behave. It's just that the outliers catch the attention.

I hate this pov so much.

I think it perpetuates that things are better than they actually are and inhibits change and progress… we’re all different I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️

[–] Firipu@startrek.website 39 points 2 years ago (4 children)

Fair enough :)

I just don't see how believing the worst in your fellow human can encourage you to improve things.

On lemmy you're just arguing with the same piss enjoyers without a piss home due to lack of active communities. Lemmy is just ex Redditors acting like they are better than Redditors.

[–] chetradley@lemm.ee 37 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Redditors are cool. It's the admin that can eat shit. I'd still be on that site if they weren't greedy fucks.

[–] areyouevenreal@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz 52 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I can't imagine thinking redditors are cool. Not even redditors think redditors are cool.

[–] chetradley@lemm.ee 17 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Haha, cool as in I have no beef with them. If you thought I meant "hip" I'll just say I can't judge since I've been out of that game for a while, as evidenced by my use of "hip" in a sentence.

I reported an account that was posting CP and they banned ME for report abuse and let them continue posting but removed one of their CP posts. Reddit is a cesspool.

[–] Vorticity@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I wonder if Reddit could be held legally liable for trafficking in CP in that case. They were explicitly told "this is CP and should be deleted" and they didn't act.

[–] STK96@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

No idea, it's weird they reacted that way because I reported all three of the CP posts on that account instead of just the one though. Evidently they have some questionable staff.

So that is ok but if you post to an "unapproved" subreddit (even if you are leaving a criticism of them) you get banned from subreddits by bots. Then you accidently post to one of them from a 2nd account and your account gets perma banned. Yay! "Reddit, a place for open discussion for only people we approve of subject to arbitrary rules."

banned ME for report abuse

Wouldn't be surprised if the poster was a mod.

[–] 1984@lemmy.today 44 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Reddit teaches you to not argue with people more than absolutely necessary. It's a waste of time. Just stop responding to them if you don't want to talk.

I paid for an argument, this is just contradiction!

[–] steakmeout@aussie.zone 15 points 2 years ago

No it isn't.

Reddit was great for things like "Can you recommend some Italian restaurants in the area?" Then you'd get downvoted for recommending some Italian restaurants in the area.

The site seems more like a piss hole.

[–] BurritoBooster@feddit.de 13 points 2 years ago

Technically, this sub is a shit hole.

[–] Ejh3k@lemmy.world 23 points 2 years ago (9 children)

I got into a reddit fight with someone claiming they never once tried to plug a USB in incorrectly. Another time I got down voted to hell because I asked someone why they go through so many pizza cutters. They claimed they went through like 7 in 3 years. Reddit was bad, but I miss the nostalgia of it. Too bad it only got worse and kicked off third party apps. .

This is so fucking funny, thanks for reposting, OP. Rest in piss angry stranger.

[–] ShittyRedditWasBetter@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago (13 children)

Lololol imagine thinking lemmy is better than reddit for those reasons 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago (11 children)

I have yet to have someone stalk me on Lemmy. Happened on Reddit all the time.

Like Patches O Houlahan from Dodgeball once said:

"I drink my own piss because its sterile and I like the taste!"

[–] samus12345@lemmy.world 15 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Not sure where that thing about urine being sterile came from, but no, it most certainly isn't!

There was someone who used to DM me on Reddit to remind me that I was a c**t.

I think this went on for several years until I just got tired ,reported him to the admins, and had his account banned within the hour.

Other good one was having death threats sent to me by a burner account.

Sir, this is a Wendy's. We only serve Shit Posts here, we don't offer drinks.

On a side note, that piss drinker's username wouldn't happen to be u/spez?... 🤔

😂🤣 ... 🤮

[–] arc@lemm.ee 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

To be fair it happens here. Made a comment about far left & right being manipulated by Russian BS about Ukraine and some very tedious people started at me about how Ukraine are Nazis etc. I suppose it demonstrated my point in a roundabout way.
