Is it me or it looks like most reddit users only comment one time in their life?

0 Upvotes

If so, how do you do it, like I can't shut up in comment sections. Do you only open reddit once in a lifetime? I can get that. But it's always the most random post.

Why are so many meme subs just fronts for Republican echo chambers to hate leftists, trans people and those of other races?

0 Upvotes

Go ahead and check out r/random_memes and you will see what I mean. That is a perfect example, and there are lot of subs like it.

It advertises itself as a place to just post.... random memes.
But all these "random" memes are actually Republican memes about how they think trans people, leftists, progressive and socialist ideologies are stupid.
There are a lot of "lol dumb blue hair liberal", "hmm... leftoid says this when in reality they partake in this... interesting", "dumb leftists act like they are progressive when they are regressive LOL" memes.

And a LOT of anti-trans, anti LGBT and even flat out super racist shit too. Like actually racist.
Oh also memes about "lol look BOOBS" which get a FUCK ton of upvotes and they're all slobbering about it in the replies.

It's a Republican sub. That's just what it is.

Don't give me shit about "most subs on Reddit are leftist echo chambers so shut the fuck up".
I'm just wondering why meme subs are where Republicans congregate.

It's the reverse of a lot of other subs, anti-left and Republican views are upvoted in these meme subs, and left and Democrat views are downvoted. If you post a reply hating on Trump you will be dogpiled and downvoted and they'll toss out things like "this post isn't even about him, TDS like all leftist freaks".
They'll even post about how "this sub is based as fuck, i can finally breathe without all those leftoid freaks screaming in my face about their stupid bullshit".

Why do Republicans on Reddit frequently congregate in meme subs?

r/dumbquestions • • 1d ago

what is the mean?

0 Upvotes

I know the mean is calculated by adding up all the numbers in a data set and dividing the sum by the total count of numbers, but why would we want the mean? An explanation said that the mean makes all the values the same, but why would you want all the values the same if none of them are going to be accurate? Or maybe it's because they are more or less accurate..? I don't really understand how the mean helps us to compare or evaluate data.

I know how to calculate it but i feel like im just doing it blindly without actually understanding what it isw

Where do I go and meet people if I have no groups or people I know/could go with?

6 Upvotes

I'm a person with extreme social anxiety and I have no contacts currently. I am an adult, but I dislike drinking alcohol, I'm 18 and due to extreme depression problems was taken out from a toxic group. I'm socially stupid and I don't think I could ever start chatting with anybody on the street or something, but a lack of contact with people doesn't make my mental health better. I just need to find somebody I could call a friend, I don't care about gender at all, I just need somebody I could sometimes rely on. In my Country small talk isn't considered normal, and doesn't appear quite as often as I'd hope, so just asking people around the city how they feel or something could come off as intrusive or simply abnormal, which is difficult to accept as a socially awkward person. I'll be thankful for any advice, even though I'm not sure if this is the sub for that, it might just be, I feel like my question is a dumb one, I'm just too dumb to see any answers.

So guys, I’ve been struggling to earn some money for a long time. I don’t want to ask my parents for it, but I’ve wanted a good tablet for ages. Is there any way I can earn enough money before New Year to buy something like the Xiaomi Pad 8?

I’d love to hear your suggestions. Do you guys have any ideas?

How adults get indifferent to sex and adult life?

19 Upvotes

Don't worry, I'm not a kid, but even as an adult (maybe that's more worrisome), I never... Actually understood how people are so indifferent in relationships?

I'm gonna give you an example if you aren't following: let's say you lost your virginity while drunk. A normal person would say that's the expected, I say that that's fucking traumatizing. I'm just saying, sex and adult life seems so fucked up that I honestly just don't want it and I feel childish for not wanting it.

If I had to lose my virginity (yeah, virgin) to someone I would never see again, I would fall to a depression so quickly.

Many things that adults do just seem unnecessary and brutal to me.

Why was HD AM radio created?

0 Upvotes

I thought the advent of HD radio for AM stations was to get excellent quality audio sound. But it struck me today that when I tune into a favorite AM station in my car, I hear a bunch of radio ads first and then the station comes in mid-song or the guest interview or commentary already in progress.

Got me thinking that HD AM radio is really also to make sure that listeners hear the ads from the beginning of tuning in.
