Shitposting is what ruined reddit, which would be a great place for serious discussion if it weren’t for the shitposting maniacs who just can’t let good people enjoy pictures of kittens and assertions of respectable politics without lampooning them with ironic memes and foul language.

If these fledgeling platforms want to compete with reddit then I say delete this sub so we can focus on serious things like Donald Trump and superhero movies.

    I don’t know about you but not everyone uses Reddit/Lemmy for primarily serious reasons. Besides, this place is called “lemmyshitpost” for a reason- people want to post rather profane memes and they want to do it somewhere, and this place is for that. Without this place, the “shit” in question gets into other places. You coming to this specifically secluded place and asking us to talk about more “elite” topics is like asking the landfill manager why there is trash everywhere.

    also the industrial revolution thing was a joke lol, I was referencing the Unabomber

      That’s why Jesus hung out with whores and pimps and thieves, because they were the ones that most needed to hear his message.

      It makes sense that you would be a fan of the unabomber. Shitposting is basically terrorism.
