I’m trying not to feel picked on, I don’t think I’m a normie by any stretch of hope or imagination, but I am kind of the anti-spez crowd and I definitely left Reddit completely after all that nonsense.
I’m certainly not blood thirsty, but I do think some people represent an outsized portion of the violent inspiration in the world. I think their anguish is too great for us to endure and they must necessarily be caged so that polite society may live. I definitely don’t take the cage lightly or seek excuses to put more people in them, but fuck man these are some bad dudes.
It was wild, I couldn’t believe what I saw when I poked my head in, I was so turned off by it I haven’t been back. Usually the memes on NCD were nuanced and made fun of a niche aspect about the war, but last time I was there it was this frenzy about murdering palestinians. No jokes, no elaboration, nothing. It felt so unnatural for NCD that I started thinking the comments and posts were astroturfed. Because when I checked NCD here on Lemmy the post felt more in line of what I would expect, funny but not vitriolic.
Anybody notice how bloodthirsty ncd was on Oct 7 in Reddit? Wtf was up with that?
On Reddit there are either only normies or completely cursed and fucked up people since the whole anti Spez stuff, because both didn’t leave.

You’re not alone. I’m just now poking my head back in to any of the NCDs because of that.
