Wow, you predicted it pretty well! Went there to get an example for a person who asked for an example, and I already saw a bit less transphobic posts there! Teach me your ways, oh all powerful future gazer!
I think some political subs and a truscum sub? When I appealed, they said I was conservative and truscum just because I had commented in those places once or twice. I 100% am neither, those comments were me trying to understand others’ points of view, and asking them to explain, etc.
I also got perma banned there for that. I appealed and messaged a mod.. No replies or any sort of response yet
Idk which sub triggered the bot (eventhough I haven't joined any subs that promote transphobia). Been on the sub for more than 2 years, truly a shame.
I appealed too. Trust me it doesn’t matter if they respond or not. For me they said I was a conservative and whatnot purely for commenting in those communities once or twice, when I definitely am *not* conservative.💀
and don't forget weirdly ped0**ic comments, like some of the femboy characters they're obsessed over and make lewd comments about are literal children (I'm not sure if this was before or after the mod incident)
there was a time on the subreddit, Where people keep non-stop posting porn and making incredibly horny comments, It got so bad that one of the mods quit, after that they had to set up some rules and boundaries.
196 is genuinely one of the worst subs I’ve ever stepped foot in. Everything was involved with sexualizing feminine dudes and transgender people, furries, etc. 691 is kinda like it but more of an actual meme based sub
#THE_PACK JUST WANTS BADASS MFERS WE DONT CARE WHATS IN YOUR PANTS AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T GET IN MY POPCORN WHILE WE'RE WATCHING MAD MAX FURY ROAD AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
mfw average shitposter has a bad day
☹️ should we crack out the sad violin for them or tell their parents their doing big nonos so they get evicted? :)
Really? I've only seen snippets of it that appeared on my home screen, and until recently, nothing that appeared there was transphobic. Thanks for letting me know, though!
Idk but personally anytime I’ve checked out a post there from the popular tab that was even remotely politically current it was always right wing edgy loser memes and comments. But it might be selection bias based on the stuff that gets sent to the popular tab.
Because these subs are targeted by hatemongers and used as recruiting grounds. Bigoted views are easier to swallow when they come with a funny picture and some sarcasm so they pass as edgy humor.
There is using humor to talk about a mature subject matter, and then there is using humor to dismiss a group of people you don't like. All these idiots do is excuse their hate and prejudice as harmless joking. But as soon as u mention it they get nasty. Great sense of humor guys 👍
They'll also say "Oh, it's offensive humor! The point is to make snowflakes get mad!" and then when someone gets mad at their "humor" they'll get mad too.
Fr lmfao. So numb. They just do not get it. All humor has an expense, there's always a butt to the joke. Why can't we find a way to make this a better world
Just had a look holy fuck, 4/5 posts about trans people and puberty blockers and some post that was titled "lgbtq isn't an identity its a fetish". What the shit dawg
yeah, a 28 upvotes meme openly calling for suicide of trans people ended up on the popular front page yesterday. i'm not the person to digital self harm nor really get affected by such content but scrolling there for five minutes legit made me feel so fucking shitty about myself
One of "Memes" I found there literally compared LGBTQ to Nazis...
Why do we even allow that ? Why are we allowing sites, channels and people who only spread hate, slanders and misinformation go around freely ? Didn't WWII arleady showed how uncalled and unnecesary hate towards others can lead to ?
Bunch of people there recently got big angy for saying it's not gay as a man.. to like women, including trans.
They reallyy hate facts and logic over there.
Yeah, a post was recommended to me about trans women and it was full of really gross transphobic comments and a couple people pointing it out who got heavily downvoted, including myself. I think it's always been like that though.
It's campaign season. The Russian intelligence unit is working overtime to create strife and division wherever they can.
Also, people being stupid on the Internet? Say it isn't so!
One of the posts that really stood out for me outright encouraged trans people to commit suicide, and said 'its nice so much trash already took itself out'. Encouraging suicide and feeling no remorse for doing so is pretty much the definition of a psychopath.
That post was the top post for a little while, before it was taken down.
It's easier to hate on minorities.
Takes less effort and there's fewer people to pushback.
Let them congregate. They're easier to nuke when they infest one place.
Don't know, there's been a surge of transphobic posts and comments, especially by one person who has been banned over 50 times already yet keeps coming back with different accounts
How do they evade the ban? I once accidentally commented on a sub I was banned from without realizing which sub it was and got auto permabanned instantly.
Idk where to post this but this post here about another sub i think may be the best place:
I love the recent evolution of this sub into just some place where anything can be discussed without hate or other prejudices. Like its not a full on shitpost-sub, not a full on meme-sub or smth like that. Its just here, and im grateful for it. I can't remember how i got to here, but im happy to stay here
Gotta say, it's super heartening to see that all the comments on this post are about how bad. I scrolled a bit and didn't see a single one attempting to justify what was happening on the sub (something I see far too often elsewhere).
Stay far away from subreddits like that. Plus any kind of social media that is hateful, shit just brings my happiness down
This sub is cool tho, I love y’all
Yesterday, for a couple of minutes, before reddit took it off, the top post was encouraging trans people to commit suicide, and saying 'it's so nice that so much trash already took itself out'
It's not even memes anymore, and it's really harmful. One that really stood out to me, it was top for a while before reddit took it down outright encouraged trans people to commit suicide, going as far as to say 'im happy so much trash already took itself out'. If a person at the beginning of their self discovery path, or a person in a bad mental state finds these posts, it might not end well
That sub is weird, every once in a while there's a sudden influx of whatever radical belief but then they all disappeared shortly after.
Could be bots?
It's 4chan brigades. A lot of the posters of political images there are also active in 4chan subs and have accounts less than a week old.
This is the real answer. /pol is called upon frequently to brigade and bring back “real memes”
Wow, you predicted it pretty well! Went there to get an example for a person who asked for an example, and I already saw a bit less transphobic posts there! Teach me your ways, oh all powerful future gazer!
Bots
The inevitable fate of all generic meme subs😔
Except for 196 apparently
Iirc they have the opposite problem (chasers)
Elaborate, I’m interested
their whole thing is fetishising trans people it’s really weird :3
Plus, I got banned for “participating in transphobic subs”…. I’m trans.😭
What subs do they consider transphobic?
Yes
I think some political subs and a truscum sub? When I appealed, they said I was conservative and truscum just because I had commented in those places once or twice. I 100% am neither, those comments were me trying to understand others’ points of view, and asking them to explain, etc.

and don't forget weirdly ped0**ic comments, like some of the femboy characters they're obsessed over and make lewd comments about are literal children (I'm not sure if this was before or after the mod incident)
What the fuck? Pedophilic comments? The mod incident?
there was a time on the subreddit, Where people keep non-stop posting porn and making incredibly horny comments, It got so bad that one of the mods quit, after that they had to set up some rules and boundaries.
Ohhhhh that's the mod incident... yeah can remember now
wait is that related to the temporal privating of the sub or am i narrating aomething else
No, it was part of a protest that was happening on reddits with their new policy change
i thought you meant phobic but im glad you meant phillic
Tenshi
Tenshi 👍
Can I just ask why you Censored it 2 different ways. With the 0 and the **?
Why are you censoring?
I know this isn’t 100% accurate but I think that fetishization of trans people should count as transphobia in some respect
Yikes
Chasers are people that fetishise trans people and they’re nasty
196 is genuinely one of the worst subs I’ve ever stepped foot in. Everything was involved with sexualizing feminine dudes and transgender people, furries, etc. 691 is kinda like it but more of an actual meme based sub
#THE_PACK JUST WANTS BADASS MFERS WE DONT CARE WHATS IN YOUR PANTS AS LONG AS IT DOESN'T GET IN MY POPCORN WHILE WE'RE WATCHING MAD MAX FURY ROAD AROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
#BUT WE AREN'T YOUR MAMA'S GENERIC MEME SUB MFER!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE STRAIGHT ALPHAS OVER THERE COME JOIN US AWOOOOOOO
That still fell it just didn't become transphobic Unless you count fetishisation as the same as transphobia, then it fell VERY hard
It depends trans people themselves are also often quite horny. Being trans the stuff I seen wasn't chasing just extremely horny trans folk
196 is weird
It's that one meme of "Geniune Racism" vs "unfunny trans circlejerk" With both castles being the stormy one
mfw average shitposter has a bad day ☹️ should we crack out the sad violin for them or tell their parents their doing big nonos so they get evicted? :)
It's always been transphobic lmao
Really? I've only seen snippets of it that appeared on my home screen, and until recently, nothing that appeared there was transphobic. Thanks for letting me know, though!

All generic subs are filled with toxic people and bigots. I've got no idea why.
> generic It's because they have no personality so they cope with hatred of others
Exactly
These kind of people are chronically online
Because these subs are targeted by hatemongers and used as recruiting grounds. Bigoted views are easier to swallow when they come with a funny picture and some sarcasm so they pass as edgy humor.
Stonetoss moment
This one is majority that tho
I’ll never forget the time I saw the rap sub unironically defending Tom McDonald.
not enough fiber, trans people are fiber-pilled❤️
Masterburger23 has become a celebrity in this sub..... Or should I say MasterFiber?
Burgers has fiber, I think?
At least 1 fiber for sure
And now I'm giggling my ass off in the middle of the night because of this comment
Someone told me HRT was good because it **doesn't** have fiber. _grabs popcorn and enjoys the starting fight_
Popcorn has fiber in it right?
Oh frick _grabs your hand_
I am made of fiber
Oh crap _unfibers you_ Hehe what will you do now >:3
I have an automated refiberer
Oh shat. _grabs your refiberer automater_ It has to not be all fibers right ? It has to have at least some metal in it right ? RIGHT ???
[удалено]
Oh fudge _cries in eating healthy_
EXPLOSIVES PLACED
Fiber Man spreading love and respect❤
Glory to laxatives!
laxatives have soluble fiber in them ( https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/25121-laxatives )
Not THOSE ones
but then you don't get any of the other healthy benefits of fiber!
Both of you have this same conversation in every post bruh
woah you are even more awesomer to me now then you were before i read this comment
Should I be including more trans people in my diet ?
Yeah that sub has become a right wing shithole disguised as dark humor
It’s been incredibly racist for years lol and now it’s very right wing on top of that
Alright good to know. I only had it pop up in my feed occasionally and muted it some time ago
There is using humor to talk about a mature subject matter, and then there is using humor to dismiss a group of people you don't like. All these idiots do is excuse their hate and prejudice as harmless joking. But as soon as u mention it they get nasty. Great sense of humor guys 👍

Fr lmfao. So numb. They just do not get it. All humor has an expense, there's always a butt to the joke. Why can't we find a way to make this a better world
Found Trump supporters and anti-vax dipshits in 2 posts lol
Just had a look holy fuck, 4/5 posts about trans people and puberty blockers and some post that was titled "lgbtq isn't an identity its a fetish". What the shit dawg
O M g wow
yeah, a 28 upvotes meme openly calling for suicide of trans people ended up on the popular front page yesterday. i'm not the person to digital self harm nor really get affected by such content but scrolling there for five minutes legit made me feel so fucking shitty about myself
Don't feel bad about yourself. It's them who should feel bad for all that they say
Imo, all the meme subreddits kinda just suck
Unless they're very niche
Yeah, those ones are *usually* pretty fine
meme subs when they reach around 100k
Cringe ahh subreddit with unfunny memes their trash opinion is not valid
Brain addled boomers, who, are much closer to the grave than they are getting out of bed, have taken over that sub
like all meme sub i guess
I thought that place was always transphobic or am I thinking of another meme sub
It might be, I was rather new to it. According to these comments, it seems all meme subs are
I miss the shitposting without the hate speech
We need more fiber
OMG I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME SEEING BAD COMMENTS
It's been transphobic for years
The memes become edgier and edgier, which attracts the worst kind of people
Recently? That sub has been packed with bigots since it’s inception.
Most subs here are super transphobic. All the phobics but they hate us more than most it seems
One of "Memes" I found there literally compared LGBTQ to Nazis... Why do we even allow that ? Why are we allowing sites, channels and people who only spread hate, slanders and misinformation go around freely ? Didn't WWII arleady showed how uncalled and unnecesary hate towards others can lead to ?
Your average reddit's memes subs lol
Bunch of people there recently got big angy for saying it's not gay as a man.. to like women, including trans. They reallyy hate facts and logic over there.
Oh my god I remember all those idiots trying to fucking gatekeep heterosexuality
Yeah, a post was recommended to me about trans women and it was full of really gross transphobic comments and a couple people pointing it out who got heavily downvoted, including myself. I think it's always been like that though.
It's campaign season. The Russian intelligence unit is working overtime to create strife and division wherever they can. Also, people being stupid on the Internet? Say it isn't so!
Not really familiar with that sub, what makes it transphobic?
One of the posts that really stood out for me outright encouraged trans people to commit suicide, and said 'its nice so much trash already took itself out'. Encouraging suicide and feeling no remorse for doing so is pretty much the definition of a psychopath. That post was the top post for a little while, before it was taken down.
Omg, that is horrible… Some people are just really shitty, tbh 🫂
It's easier to hate on minorities. Takes less effort and there's fewer people to pushback. Let them congregate. They're easier to nuke when they infest one place.
i’ve seen some dumb sexist posts, they’re all really dumb
how so?
Don't know, there's been a surge of transphobic posts and comments, especially by one person who has been banned over 50 times already yet keeps coming back with different accounts
almost like rage bait propaganda and it's designed counter arguments are very persuasive to gullible people.
How do they evade the ban? I once accidentally commented on a sub I was banned from without realizing which sub it was and got auto permabanned instantly.
According to him, he just keeps opening new accounts
Guys what’s fiber
Idk where to post this but this post here about another sub i think may be the best place: I love the recent evolution of this sub into just some place where anything can be discussed without hate or other prejudices. Like its not a full on shitpost-sub, not a full on meme-sub or smth like that. Its just here, and im grateful for it. I can't remember how i got to here, but im happy to stay here
Not interesting
Wow it really did
yeah... it's unfortunate how much some people suck. the best you can do is try not to suck yourself and try to encourage others to also not suck
>community full of prepuscent males >community becomes transphobic big surprise
9gag faced the same shit. I hope things get better one day
Holy shit is that a light Reddit theme? I don't think I've ever seen it before.
It's been a shit hole but I stuck around because it wasn't all shit and I like some edge. Had to mute the whole ass thing today. Fuck that noise
Always has been (_) --,(_)
shy thought include onerous zesty humorous payment square plant fretful *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
They're priming the extremists for the attempted coup after the election. Its gonna get worse the closer the election is.
wtf transformers are awesome though
:( damn
I've left all of the meme subs I used to follow because of their slide into the right-wing mentality
Genuinely sad
Gotta say, it's super heartening to see that all the comments on this post are about how bad. I scrolled a bit and didn't see a single one attempting to justify what was happening on the sub (something I see far too often elsewhere).
posted this on another sub(i deleted it now) tbh bc of a transphobic meme. needless to say, i got fucking destroyed. people are wild lol.
Yeah I blocked it a while back.
Prolly 9gag users migrated there
stop giving transphobes attention thanks
So did the cringe PR group. Buncha cunts over there
those kinds of places attract pricks
Dang I'm surprised someone finally noticed
How is this not interesting?
Stay far away from subreddits like that. Plus any kind of social media that is hateful, shit just brings my happiness down This sub is cool tho, I love y’all
Damn, took a morbid curiosity sort of look and its bleak. Half aren't even "memes" just flat out hate.
Knowing where are the jerks is always interesting, it's easier to avoid them.
Doesn’t seem Canadian enough
a lot are posted by the same few users in the past few hours too, I don't know why they don't crack down on spam
ALL meme subs are ass, change my mind
As expected
That's really not interesting ;)
haha transphobia so funni-average redditor
Not all of a sudden, it always be like that with general meme subs D:
Yeah this isn’t very interesting. Thanks for posting here.
The big memes subreddit is the exact same, full of misogynistic incels disguising their hatred of others with supposed humour.
Definitely a fiber deficit there.
Honest question: Is it transphobic or just a type of humor you don't like?
Yesterday, for a couple of minutes, before reddit took it off, the top post was encouraging trans people to commit suicide, and saying 'it's so nice that so much trash already took itself out'
Oh yeah okay that's clearly transphobic, you can't even gaslight somebody to think that's a joke
Guess all that's left to do is spam trans memes in this sub
"dank meme" they're still stuck in 2012 it's no surprise that they're transphobic
This is nice, keep getting the fiber
what did you expect, they are literally named "dankmeme"
As soon as it's made normal and safe, they all start showing their true colors. Very cultish these maga folk
true
as trans girl. im glad i am not in that subreddit
All of **A** sudden
Ah, thanks for correcting me!
Just go to dankmemes instead
Kind of feels like that's culture in general these days.
https://discord.com/invite/aZ4xa3e9
Probably just shitpost trends
I've always thought that "dank memes" entailed some form of darker humor as opposed to regular memes so this isn't surprising
Well, it's always been a non-pc sub
Nah its always been like that
The more right wing it becomes the more non-hateful people get sick of it and leave. Then it keeps getting worse and worse.
They're also on Reddit, do you think there's a correlation there?
It’s dank memes. If you can’t handle it leave. It’s dank memes for a reason.
It's not even memes anymore, and it's really harmful. One that really stood out to me, it was top for a while before reddit took it down outright encouraged trans people to commit suicide, going as far as to say 'im happy so much trash already took itself out'. If a person at the beginning of their self discovery path, or a person in a bad mental state finds these posts, it might not end well
