This is soooooooooooo fuckin stupid

This post is nothing but proof of Cred Forums's superiority. Instead of just downvoting my answer and causing it to be hidden from anyone seeking rational discourse, you had the ability to suggest something. Had I not known what Stockholm Syndrome was I would have just learned something, and there's now an open channel for us to continue discussion

Reddit is nothing but kids making their own subreddits to post funny links and cat videos then banning anyone from their subreddit who they don't like.

I defy you to find something on reddit that you can't find just as easily on Cred Forums

its time to go back, OP

>no self awareness

www.reddit.com/r/circlejerk

none of that is funny and it's once again a separate subreddit echo chamber.

Cred Forums is an echo chamber

...

>there are girls on Cred Forums right now

I do unironically think that.

So racist shitposting actually gets you banned on reddit? Maybe I should go there. The post quality must be much higher.

and never come back, please.

So why are you here? Leave already you dumb nigger

Reddit is worse simply because of the voting system. People shouldn't be given a system to hide things they don't like from anyone who doesn't decide to dig.

If they got rid of that it might be okay.

In what way? You're almost bound to meet a person with an opposing position on any Cred Forums board (minus the porn ones, but they really aren't for discussion). That's probably what makes Cred Forums so addictive and interesting: you don't know what the other person you're talking to thought beforehand (because they have no history), but they're opposing view is bound to give you some insight as to why you have your opinion (if you have some rationality). Threads very rarely end up being echo chambers, again unless it's in one of the porn boards (which clearly are there just to share porn). You either need to lurk more or fuck off.

Most of Cred Forums is an alt-right echo chamber at this point. Any views opposing the alt-right are met with racism or shitposting.

Make one faggot.

Not an argument

There are benefits to having a specific subreddit if that's what you want to talk about.

The problem is the upvote/downvote system that serves only to encourage hive mind and groupthink.

On Cred Forums, stupid retarded ideas are laughed at, but at they're not buried, hidden, or removed. That means more ideas are discussed.

The other major downside of reddit is overzealous mods on a fucking power trip. They will enforce their worldview on you using arbitrary criteria. You have big subreddits censoring posts criticizing Islam or Hillary Clinton, for example.

thank you for correcting the record

check 'ed

Who cares? Just make one, so then you CAN find the threads here on Cred Forums.

>Unironically using alt-right
That's pretty fucking false. Most of the time it's just shills like you shitposting with some argument you don't back up and you getting butthurt when someone says nigger or spic while completely blowing you the fuck out. Most people here don't give a shit about your opinion. They just care if you can back it up. Unlike Reddit, this isn't a circlejerk where you're automatically right when you say certain key phrases.

Oh my fucking god. I can understand them being mad over a trap joke or whatever, but a fucking essay? What is this, elementary school?

I think you should. There are great technology subreddits and there are actual professionals participating in discussions. Unless you enjoy 14 year olds who just discovered Cred Forums and think racism is cool (), stay here.

>go

>After 10 years of shitposting and other glorious moments on this memefactory, a newfag comes along with differing opinions from mine

Go back to your bulletin board you vegetable soup

Thank you for proving my point. When you don't have an argument - just post frog pictures and use ad hominem attacks.

Also, clicking a topic takes you to the external link, when I care more about the comments but hate having to click a smaller link, which is a pain to tap correctly on my phone.

Regardless does anyone have good subleddit recommendations? I like reading about shit like that sr71 pilot's experience and space science and I guess popsci

...or other 14-year-olds that still use "autism" as an insult to anyone with a differing opinion.

No, it's just sometimes you need to call someone a dumb nigger, you dumb nigger.
It's only offensive if you think niggers are more stupid than non-niggers.

This is why this place is the way it is. Sigh...

i mean i don't recommend anyone i know to go to Cred Forums. i tell people to go to reddit.

i would never go to reddit though it fucking sucks and all the people there are faggots

>check 'ed

Why should i argue with your point?
It is obviously true... now just go so we can have our daily dose of shit frog threads.

?
Elaborate?

Then leave.

>implying men browse Cred Forums
this is a website for little girls only.

See these?
This is exactly why Cred Forums will remain the same. I understand that there are no ''rules'' here and that anything goes, but has it ever worked in a positive way? Frog images, ad hominem attacks, racial slurs are considered valid arguments here and no one's really stopping people from doing that. That's why this site will always be the hell hole of the internet. The only board still worth checking out is Cred Forums, but the quality of it has definitely dimished over the years.

If Cred Forums would stay in Cred Forums, a lot of these issues could be easily mitigated. I agree, though, I don't come to Cred Forums for any actual discussion because it's all shitposting or something close to it.

I'm not saying that this site needs censorship, it needs to get rid of the stigma attached to it, if you actually want to see some quality content.

Yeah we both know that you don't believe any of this shit and are just trying to rile up some 14 year olds.

The usernames/karmawhoring aspect of it really makes it an insufferable festering pit of self-consciousness and passive aggression. The timidness and calculation and evasiveness is a shit that coats everything.

If I want specialist knowledge, Reddit is better, but for conversation Cred Forums is king.

Here you are freed from the shackles of society and can indulge your animal nature. That's such a strong desire that there are many books and movies about it. It is like being a Navi on Pandora.

See:
I didn't make any ad hominem attacks, so I don't get why you'd think I want to argue with 14 year olds.

Yeah, you definitely should go to Reddit.

No, you're pretending to be some PC dipshit from reddit to annoy people.

>Here you are freed from the shackles of society and can indulge your animal nature. That's such a strong desire that there are many books and movies about it. It is like being a Navi on Pandora.
I don't think you should engage in racial slurs, just because it's cool and you're free to do so, even if you don't believe in it.

It's always been like this here on Cred Forums. Really, if you don't like that, you should probably leave. Honestly, I like it this way. It gives Cred Forums a sense of culture and authenticity that's lacking on the majority of the Internet. Reddit only feels unique because of the subreddit devoted to specific topics schtick. Other than that, each subreddit is basically a forum devoted to circlejerking about a particular topic and with mods with a superiority complex. Discussions only take place when the people discussing are free to say anything they want (within the realm of legality or maybe even that can be ignored). That's why Cred Forums, with it's shitposting and lack of rules is infinitely better than Reddit: it's more akin to how people speak in an actual conversation than the PC echo chamber that is reddit. Ideas are discussed and sometimes implemented and at the same time people just interrupt that and say nothing while at the same time saying something. If you don't like that, just fucking leave. It's not true that you're stuck here forever. You can leave any fucking time you want. You can also lurk and sound like you aren't straight off the boat from Reddit, but leaving is also on the table, you triple nigger faggot.

>If Cred Forums would stay in Cred Forums
here we go again.
It's not that Cred Forums start to migrate in every board, it's more that you all seem to believe that other boards are some kind of safespaces where you can hide.

politics has always been in every board, most subjects are related to politics in some way or another.
If you can't deal with it, or can't ignore it, maybe you should go somewhere more suited for you.

You sound like a triggered left-wing piece of shit and honestly you should kill yourself.

Are you not content with having a stranglehold on the rest of the Internet? No, because people are still having fun somewhere.

Hang yourself or just go back to Faceberg instead of persisting in your mission to make everywhere bland and inoffensive.

You made some great arguments and I had nothing but respect for you, until the last three sentences. That's what I don't like about this place and considering where this thread is going, it's more Cred Forumsrelated than anything. That's why I mostly frequent Cred Forums. Also, see:

yeah fuck right off retard. that boards the shittiest next to r9k. gb2 reddit you faggot nigger cock lover.

Fine, faggot. Go suck cocks somewhere else. Strong language is needed in some cases of extreme retardation where the special kid who needs a helmet at all time to stop from hurting himself goes around trying to put helmets on everyone else.

>Really, if you don't like that, you should probably leave.

I am here because I like the fast pace and hate having to wait hours or even days for a reply. I also hate having to sign up everywhere and having all my posts tied to an account.

Personally I don't like how rude people are here for no reason. It's not honesty, it's just being a dick because you lack the self-control / empathy.
It seems to be the inevitable byproduct of relaxed moderation and the ability to post straight away without having to make an account. But I understand that there is nothing I can do against toxic posters like these aside from filtering them as best as I can so complaining is pointless and will be met with the same predictable responses.

Whites are tired of being pushed against the wall, nigger. If you want things to cool off, tell your people to back off. We're sick of taking shit in our own countries and getting nothing but ingratitude in response to charity.

You should be grateful to have a place where you can more clearly see sentiments that are usually hidden.

>I don't think you should engage in racial slurs, just because it's cool and you're free to do so, even if you don't believe in it.

And this just showed how reddit is more suited to you.
Really you should go.

Idk, build your own safespace if you can't handle that, or maybe your own reality, if you can't imagine that people might actually be racist, and you can't deal with it or ignore it.

I dare say that on Cred Forums you can discuss even better than in real life (given both parties actually want to discuss, but I'll get to that later). With the anonymity Cred Forums offers you have the freedom to say anything you wish without other persons looking down on you as a person for thinking that. You're just another anonymous post making a point, with no social pressure to say the thing that is "correct" in that situation. Not only that, but the anonymity also forces you to back up your claims, since you can't just say "hey I studied for this trust me", you're just an anonymous post, back up your claims.

On the flip side, anonymous posts can also just be shitposts because every voice is heard here (given there is a little censorship, but let's not mention that for the sake of the argument since it doesn't actually matter that much with archives). Nothing stops people from posting garbage. The trick is to spot those people and ignore them... Or, you know, shitpost harder, that can be fun too.

>toxic
The only thing that is toxic is the suppression of expression.
You are trying to tell people to not be themselves, to fit inside the box that other people give them.

I'm black and I call people niggers all the time because niggers are horrible creatures that steal, murder, and basically shame my race. I'm glad not all of my race are niggers, so I don't have to feel guilty on their behalf, but I'd understand if there was a race war, and I know what side I'd be on.

Most often i see pol content outside of pol used as a way to derail threads. Apropos of nothing someone will complain about something pol dislikes and some dumb motherfucker start arguing with them.

I have no respect for you really. Frankly, I don't even know you, much less care about you. You just need to have fun once in your fucking life and stop getting triggered by offensive language or shit like that. No one cares except for faggots like you. You know why? It doesn't affect anyone in the end. Calling someone a nigger or a faggot shouldn't elicit any response. You're on the fucking Internet. No one owes you shit. People will insult you for responding to them here. If you don't like that go to your little safespace in redditand suck your fucking thumb. I'm not your friend and I owe you nothing. Get that into your fucking brain, you retard. I can use whatever language I like and you can too. Just don't tell me what to do while I'm here. I don't care how you feel, but you should be decent/mature enough to realize that no one owes you shit here (or in real life for that matter) and you don't dictate the rules here.

>just being a dick
To whom? We're all anonymous. We don't care about the person that typed it. We care about the argument that guy made in his post. If that post is fucking retarded I'll be sure to mention it. The discussion will likely keep going with insults from both sides but at least it's an honest discussion. Needing everything to be "politically/socially correct" is absolutely retarded and enormous faggotry which you can best find on reddit.

>but you should be decent/mature enough to realize that no one owes you shit here

With the way you speak you have no business talking about decency and maturity.

Also I said myself in my post that I understand that rude people are inevitable in a place with relaxed moderation and anonymity. I also said that I am not going to tell people what to do because people like that are stubborn anyways and won't listen.

I am not even talking about politics. You can also be honest without being rude.

And I also see the other way.
>user dares to say nigger
>I absolutely have to tell him how stupid that is and how he shouldd go to Cred Forums
>it's really Cred Forums's fault again if the thread derailed !

Not him, but I do agree that people yell Cred Forums a little too early. On the other hand, there is most certainly Cred Forums shitposters on every board. They try to force retarded Hillary, Trump or Pepe related topics. These fucks are genuinely annoying since that has nothing to do with the board at all, however they try to mask it. Still, most things people yell Cred Forums at is bullshit. Given, I hate Cred Forums and all of it's newfaggotry.

this thread alone is already proof, there's actual discussion going on without people worrying about post history or karma or anything, try to find that on reddit.

get out r*ddit.

Ok, what this has to do with technology?

...

Seriously leave faggot. If you don't like Cred Forums, don't expect anyone to change it for you. I don't tell people that they shouldn't make out when I walk in on them by accident. Literally, leave. Go anywhere. I don't give a shit. You shat up this already shit board full of posts that literally go against the rules of the board to post this nonsense. Like seriously, don't try to cahnge the world until you check youself and change yourself. Also, at this point, it's almost obligatory to recommend suicide because you have been a pain in my fucking ass like no other faggot in this Taiwanese bathing forum. Even newfags come here with the expecting this place to be where ll the alt-right death frogs and hackers are at.

>That pic
Pic related

Dunno why this shit thread is on Cred Forums desu.

The only thing I can say Cred Forums does better than Reddit is on Cred Forums in order to be passive aggressive you actually have to show your face. Both websites are passive aggressive shithole circlejerks that should not be browsed, however. The validity of your argument and your ability to defend yourself in argument doesn't matter when:

A. The opposing party can just call you autistic and the entire board will consider that a valid reply and will not question them or consider that out of the ordinary

or

B. The opposing party can just le ebin downboat you- very much likely across multiple posts- and maybe even ban you from their subreddit because they have no argument

shithole cancer, the both of these websites

>Cred Forums
>passive aggressive
Only a retard would be passive aggressive here.
The entire point of this site is to be openly aggressive when you feel like it.

If someone resorts to solely calling you autistic nobody replies because everyone sees you've been arguing with a retard. No point in continuing that discussion when you can just go find another one with someone who might actually care, or not even care, but at least present valid arguments for a while.

What was the site with what you can do such graphics from a site?

Something that's neither on Cred Forums nor on reddit.
