    Yeah i agree. It was a very sad thing. And even worse to make light of when you consider the number of people who become imprisoned for minor things or even wrongly. If prison rpe is so prevalent as Reddit jokes made it seem, it wouldn’t only happen to people who those making the jokes believe ‘deserve it’ (which, also, is awful to think about rpe.) I remember learning in class about David Milgaard, and he wrote about his experiences, including that violation. I wonder if those who joked “they’ll love (random young guy in publicfreakouts video) in prison” even know or care how awful r*pe really is. It’s really something that should be prevented.

    When someone would ask a good question that you also wanna know the answer to, but then all the “answers” were just jokes bc everyone wanna get upvotes. I dont really mind jokes but those times it was a bit sad, then sometimes no one would answer for real bc i guess they see 10 replies and assume surely one of them is real already.

    Also repost bots.

    And apple vs samsung feuds.

    And sometimes looked like whenever some people try to organize action or protests, comments just spamming that “protests do nothing” or “voting does nothing,” or “what is this gonna do,” not suggesting any other solution either, almost like trying to encourage apathy? Or discourage action. Sometimes i wondered if those were bots.

    Also the r/wooosh when someone didn’t understand a joke. .-.

    I’d like to say that I’ve seen comment of yours about language before and I want to say I really respect this. I know for me some words are harder to say in English (like rural - though I have practiced! But atm when I say sounds a bit like roool lol) and before seeing on Reddit, I wouldn’t have thought that conversate isn’t considered a word by so many! It doesn’t seem so wrong to me. And it helps to know there are people in the world like you who wouldn’t just be disgusted by the difference.

    U can take the redditor out of reddit, but u cant take the reddit out of redditors

    No but really i think is just a human thing. Like when someone makes a popular song and then many people try to make a similar one. Or someone does their hair one way and many try to copy. Or even in real life, there are some jokes that are old but are known now because they got repeated a lot. Even the figure of speech i use there, is repeated over time. So im just teasing a bit, i know it’s not only a reddit thing lol (but did happen on reddit a lot! This repitition does remind me a bit of those reddit comments like “and my axe!” “I also choose this guy’s wife” “narrator: it did not” “sir this is a wendy’s” “instructions unclear: ____” etc. but hopefully wont be as drawn out.)

    SAME its happened on Reddit where I would have a back and forth w someone where we disagreed but it was respectful, and then in the middle of it I’d notice the other person’s comments being -1 even new ones. Meaning someone who isnt in the convo would start downvoting the other person, and I’d be like ‘what if they think I did it? What if that damages a mutual understanding they were close to reaching? What if that turns them off from considering a different point of view bc they assume I’m doing it and that I’m hostile?’ Then sometimes I’d be like “sorry someone is downvoting you its not me”

    Now that i read it: i saw some ppl here wonder about bots posting comments or maybe downvoting, bc of apparently a lot of comments being against the protest suddenly more than before? And more downvotes on comments about it? If really bots are being used for this, will that also contribute to the traffic metric like a normal user would?

    But that said im not sure if theyre bots, but i did see some people mentioned that they thought there’s some false accounts speaking on Reddit’s side.

    Im commenting before reading: I wonder if traffic’ll go up a lot from r/place tomorrow. I dont plan to participate know some ppl even who are staying away from Reddit plan to participate in r/place to put a protest message. But what I wondered if Reddit trying to ensure the mothly activity for June look the same as other months so the dip was not so noticeable. But how much does activity usually increase when r/place happened before? (If at all)

    But ik also some ppl said theyre leaving Reddit June 30th, so maybe itll look different then.
