Ackshually the le redditor moment is the the_donaldification of this instance. Some day the critical mass won’t get the parody anymore and it will be just a gargle of The One Joke attackhelicopterlibrulsnowflake changed to chinalibrulstalin
Did narwhal bacon midnight stay funny? Not really
Question yourself, why do you use donaldification, do you mean the sub? If so do you think the social interactions here are like there? Beating down against marginalized people in the imperial core with heavy slurs and racism which promote violence in the authoritarian core?
If you want to refer to the way communication is done, in a not serious tone, with elements that actually connect to people (like the old chapo subreddit did), then you have to ask yourself why you are against an effective presence of the working class on the net.
If you are just finding the humor edgy then that is another matter, but the first two - which you opened up due to your choice of words - make me think that there is more to it. I feel as if there is a moral component you value highly. Is that so?
Remember how t_d was a tongue in cheek in-joke in the beginning until it grew and actually drew in users that actually were all in with the cult without a hint of self awareness and became what you described?
That path is too easy to accidentally replicate and IT will be a negative effect for the working class on the net. Regular prole scrollers won’t get “stalin is good because he’s handsome” even though we might have a taste for edgier humor
Think critical, friend
Will get it, since we are having enough critical points and mega threads as well as theory discussions.
Yeah I differ in that estimate. A variety of places for the working class will be more effective than small closed groups of critical school theory nerds (which had like 90 years to come up with functional organizing).
I’m not sure if scrollers stick to find out about if there’s honesty in the megathreads.
Variety is definitely good. Maybe I’ve just seen too many in-jokes-as-a-glue things convert to something else around the internet as media literacy is falling. Shrug.
Love the optimism tho! Peace out
