There’s many bots doing that for some subs…

Oldlander extension and old.reddit.com is pretty good. I prefer RedReader, though.

“Most toxic” depends on who’s annoyed this week, but there are a few recurring mental habits that reliably rot discourse without even trying.

My biggest pet peeve is probably moral absolutism, often disguised as clarity. That’s the mindset where everything gets forced into clean categories of pure good vs pure evil, with zero tolerance for the rainbow of nuance.

Next up is identity-as-proof. If someone is in Group X, then they must believe Y, and any counterexample is treated as an anomaly or betrayal. It saves effort because you don’t have to think, just sort people into bins and react accordingly.

Then there’s algorithmic certainty syndrome, which is more modern and a bit more subtle. People get used to feeds that reinforce their priors so efficiently that disagreement starts to feel like statistical noise. So instead of updating beliefs, they just escalate confidence. Nothing says “epistemic humility” like being completely wrong with confidence.

Another one is transactional morality: “If I’m right, I’m allowed to be as harsh as I want.” Which turns every disagreement into a license for cruelty, as if correctness automatically comes with behavioral immunity.

And underneath a lot of it is something simpler and more disconcerting: comfort with not understanding things before judging them. People are so eager to tell others what they are by labeling them and defining them rather than simply talking about themselves (you… vs. I…)

John 13:34-35

I read a book about this subject. The author argued it was a new commandment, not an additional one. Because if you love one another then you would never break the prior ten commandments. Makes sense.

But Jesus loved hanging out with whores.

Hopefully a hell of a lot worse. Hopefully so bad people can’t afford gasoline. Imagine the fresh air. Looking forward to it.

So a leveraged buyout… Gotta max that debt to equity(leverage.)

They were youths having a party…

Surprised they didn’t turn it into yet another AI!

That’s a possible life sentence if you get caught. Assuming there’s even a single person in the building.
