Group of black teens attacks a guy. Minor injuries. What’s the reddit thread filled with?

“carry a gun” “cops on every corner” “animals”

what gets downvoted? me mentioning generational poverty.

death to the whites.

Edit: came back, didn’t think this would blow up the way it did, but it has been hilarious how many bad takes are from people with an @ in their username. This hilarity is why i love HexBear.

    That’s never been true with Reddit. Them liking Bernie for a hot minute in 2016 didn’t change the amount of racist shit that would and still regularly gets upvoted, among many other things.

      I started using Lemmy today bc I was on Reddit and imperialist bleach demons from all the major news subs were cheering on the US for cutting off the UNRWA funding.
