Put the average redditor in a pub quiz vs some random bricky or taxi driver or plumber or whatever and I will bet against the redditor.
Redditors only know the same things that get repeated over and over and over and over in every single thread that you can absolutely predict before opening them and they never learn anything beyond that.
Not to mention a third of those facts are straight up false
-
The world isn’t on the cusp of running out of helium
-
Most of the plastic waste in the ocean doesn’t come from just 10 rivers, 8 of which are located in Asia
-
I forget what else really boils my piss about Reddit ScieneBros but there’s plenty more
In China they cut off your butt if you fart

What the fuck is an “average global citizen”?
a dog whistle for the proletariat of the imperial periphery, i.e. “third worlder”
If Vsauce taught me anything, it’s that the average global citizen is someone with one breast and one testicle
sounds slaaneshi, im in
Gonna have to call in the Guard for this one
Anyone in the bottom half of
A redditor

“Meet the New Boss, same as the old boss!” cried the Old Boss, before he had even kicked the bucket.
America still has the highest military budget. America still has 800 bases all over the world. America still has unwanted torture dungeons in other peoples’ countries. America is still funding reactionary militants and destabilizing countries. America is still couping, embargoing, sanctioning, invading, and bribing. America still has dollar hegemony. America is still the only nation to ever use a nuclear weapon. America is the only nation to proudly and openly declare that it will use a nuclear weapon in a preemptive strike capacity if it sees fit. And despite all this, motherfuckers in America are so afraid of America becoming #2 bad guy, that they start counting the chickens of BRICS imperialism before it has even hatched. It reminds me of this old cartoon from the civil war:
“if I hadn’t killed you, you would have grown up to rule me”
that’s the mindset of western chauvinism
No amount of comparative analysis makes a difference. Western chauvinist social fascists will always imagine, just like Brits did till their empire died, that their nation is the beacon of enlightenment and forward thinking, and that they will bring progress to everyone else at gunpoint, and nobody else is really capable of doing that, and they should be stopped before they even get a chance to try, because obviously it’s all just a ruse, a trojan horse, they really just want to be America 2.0. Do as I say, not as I do! Nobody has the right to my hegemony because they’ll just make the same mistakes I made! And I know better!
This was a great post, but could you put the image under a spoiler?
Aren’t images automatically hidden and require click?
at least for me they are hidden correctly on desktop, but not on my phone
It’s better to be uninformed than misinformed, and redditors are the most misinformed people in the history of mankind.
Look, I’m a fucking idiot, but if the shoe fits…
Ahh a good old fashioned Reddit dunking
Reminds me of the early days of /r/cth 🥲
If redditors were smart they wouldn’t be on
This is probably technically correct tbh. But only because of the billions living in extreme poverty to benefit said redditors.
Knowledge != Intelligence
There are a lot of simpletons in the world. Being able to type a sentence with good mechanics is a low bar though.
