This thread is getting really confused about their theology; if you have an hour to spare, the Knowing Better video is quite good.

420chan was fun.

Don’t forget r/picsofdeadkids and r/beautifulcorpses

R/rape was a place for rape porn for the longest time. Posting to Reddit for advice coping with sexual assault is 100% a bad idea, as you will mostly get DM’s and chat requests from people who want to get off to your trauma. I believe the moderators of those “support” communities also get off on it too.

There are still currently beastiality subreddits and r/guro. The beastiality subreddits post simulated images/hentai, but the discussions include advice on how to participate.

People tried to defend r/jailbait by saying it was girls close to 18. (Uh akshually it’s ephebophilia 🤡) It was not. It was mostly 13-14 year olds or younger. Actual pornographic images weren’t posted there, but it was clear that the admin team and others were running trading rings.

Didn’t Reddit even ban Gawker links for a while for doxxing Micheal Brutsch? Redditors always fell over themselves to defend all of this shit as “free speech.” R/ShitRedditSays was considered worse than any of these subreddits.

They have been covering up child sexual abuse for decades. Making children face their abuser, destroying records, not cooperating with the police…

They discourage their members from going to college or seriously pursuing a career. They practice disfellowshipping and shunning, where you lose your entire social circle if you leave or even do something as minor as be known to have watched porn. They trap people essentially - you work a low wage job like cleaning windows because you aren’t supposed to pursue higher education, you are expected to provide free labor for their real estate scheme, and also the hours and hours of free labor going door to door.

They let their children die rather than have blood transfusions. Hospitals and doctors have had to come up with ridiculous “bloodless surgeries” to keep these people alive, because they read a single verse in the Bible flat out incorrectly.

JW’s are a cult. The proselytizing doesn’t convert anyone, the purpose is to have the members routinely rejected to convince them of the evils of society. There is nothing good about the organization; there are certainly individual JW’s who are good people, but it’s a fucking cult.

It’s great if you like stoner Adult Swim stuff. It was a breath of fresh air for those of us that missed things like Superjail!, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, etc instead of endless Family Guy reruns and shonen.

Tom Cruise is gay, and that’s the wrong “tone” for Scientology. So he has to pretend to like women.

Same with Travolta.

You know a lot of men buy those bad dragon type of toys? Probably more than women…

And the same types of sites definitely sell fleshlight type of toys.

When I watch Mulan, I shut it off before the reveal and pretend that Mulan never gets outed. I am so thirsty for gay trans man romance :(

Being a kid on a long ass car trip, and imagining things.

I would tense my leg muscles to “jump” over tree shadows.

Bro - I was literally a fucking teacher during the peak of that moral panic. I spend more time every day with teenagers than half of you on this thread do. Every kid knew it was a fucking joke. A handful of children actually did it on purpose, and like every moral outrage/hysteria it became “teens are doing this wild crazy thing!”

Yes, teenagers do dumb fucking shit all of the time. It’s not the shit the media picks up on for the viral clicks.

The real shit teens are actually doing is vaping shady carts and creating massive group chats to bully each other with naked pictures. But that doesn’t sell the same kinds of ad impressions as “there’s a stupid TikTok video that when viral so we are going to assume this is a massive regular thing that hundreds of children are doing.” Talking about those issues involves parents having to, you know, parent but instead it’s gotta be about stupid shit.

The real “hiding under a rock” is being distracted by the newest stupid TikTok video instead of dealing with the things teenagers actually do.

Did you know that cognitively delayed teenagers exist?

Check real quick - I think “gullible” is written on your ceiling. Watch out, I hear human traffickers are putting fentanyl laced roses on car doors.

> How does one unintentionally eat a tide pod?

Did you see the part where only half of those ingestions were intentional?

You would be freaking out about rainbow parties and snap bracelets in the 90s.

Do creative people have viable paths to income that aren’t social media?

How does one survive as an artist or a small film maker, when there is no patronage, government funding for museums is constantly on the chopping block, and any form of art you make is going to be uploaded whether you like it or not?

Our society essentially has no paths to success for creative types other than social media - especially with C-suites deciding that they’d rather use the plagiarism machine to make slop than hire actual content makers and artists?

Making things like clip art used to be a job. You used to be able to paint signs. There was work for mid level artists. Now, your options are trying to go viral on social media/hunt for commissions.

You get this a joke?

Children were never eating tide pods either.

Chuck P was a gay man. The movie takes the homoeroticism to levels that would have been laughable if Palahnuik had written them.

Why does the narrator ignore Marla? BECAUSE HES GAY

Price is a really wacky guy, and even he will admit he’s very much on the fringe. I would suggest Dan McClellan or Bart Ehrman over him.

When asked why there was no autopsy on Yeakey, an Oklahoma City Police Department spokesman, Master Sgt. Gary Knight, referred a reporter to the state medical examiner’s office, whose director of operations, Kari Learned, wrote, “Our office does not answer case specific questions.”

Gotta wonder what was on that video tape.

OKC cops tend to have the same leanings as McVeigh…

Isn’t it funny how Dems chased out Al Franken for that shitty photo, but Republicans rally behind their own sex pests?

Terrence Yeakey was a black cop in OKC.

He ended up killing himself by cutting his wrists, his neck, and shooting himself in the head. Pretty spectacular suicide there.
