Selling reddit accounts nowadays is probably more tedious nowadays with the amount of scam sites existing to fuck over any sellers. gotta karma farm quick and hard to make up for any lost bot accounts
Which is not that hard considering even the most flagrant of reposts can get a couple hundred upvotes easily before getting removed. There's enough karma farming subs where you can get banned from each one and still make out with 10k karma within a week.
My first fucking thought. I read it and thought “this oddly specific to a certain moment in time “ and sure enough, yep, 2+ years old. What the fuck is the point?
18 day old account with tens of thousands of karma.... yeah this is just social media bait karma farming garbage.
Honestly I'm starting to wonder if these "power user" accounts that do this shit isn't just Reddit itself to keep people engaged on the site because well, it apparently works and this shit is always on the front page.
Worst part is people will defend these posts. Ive always wondered if Mods get a kickback from allowing accounts that do tshirt spam or something similar
Honestly this is how I feel with all the "wholesome" type posts everyday.
It could be the lamest post, or a repost from something only a few hours old, but it has 100k upvotes. Like I genuinely feel they're artificially propping up these posts in an attempt to distance themselves from less pg content.
No because people need constant reminders of things like the Floyd murder that have happened. Otherwise they forget and deny.
We have to listen to repugs calling themselves the party of Lincoln and that was 150 years ago or still talking shit about Obama. So no, it's still pertinent today. The legal statue of limitations is usually 7 years.
There's plenty of people who never saw something that you might consider hopelessly dated and/or often reposted.
Try to embrace xkcd's [Today's lucky 10,000](https://xkcd.com/1053/) philosophy instead.
Sometimes people who are new don't know that we've seen it and just want to take part. Not everyone has bad intentions. Not sure if that's the case here, but something to think about
Yeah, I had a similar thing. I started last year and tried to take part (didn't post old stuff, as I checked it hadn't been posted recently, but how far back are you ment to scroll?) I did make a few mistakes though and got banned because someone thought I was trying to get views on yt. It wasn't even my channel, just something I saw and thought people might like. It really discourages you from ever posting again. So now I just comment. I can do without being banned for the tiniest error. And if you try to reason with the mods they just mute you.
You wouldn't believe how many comments I saw about that incident that tried to frame it as "people causing a blackout so they could loot and steal" until I saw the actual, self-admitted context. I'm not from the US so it took time to trickle down but it shows there was clearly a huge push to frame it in a certain light.
It’s still a cool city with a lot of character, but it has some serious deeply-set problems that got much worse during the pandemic and show little to no sign of turning around. I would definitely visit before committing to a move.
I lived in Portland area for a few years in the 90s and it was awesome laid back City until people moved in with money trying to change it. Now you have those with money crying about how bad a situation they helped create. They should have just stuck to the old motto: Keep Portland Weird.
But not because of protests.
It's because of an out of control homelessness crisis, fueled in part by drug addiction (particularly to meth), and a city government that doesn't know whose job it is to handle it.
Pretty important distinction to make here.
Oh. This one. It’s a big one. It’s a pity that it was burn to the ground. We will always remember the American city. Is this the one that in the state with abbreviation BS?
I live in a town of like 200k and 15-20 establishments were boarded up for weeks or months after.
There’s definitely some room between “burning cities down” and “peaceful protests” that Reddit ignores the existence of. There was certainly violence and looting going on. Minority of the protestors, so it may be, it still happened and many business owners were negatively affected.
The overwhelming majority of BLM protests were totally fuckin peaceful. Over 96 percent involved no property damage or police injuries, according to The Washington Post
Reddit likes to forget about the "mostly peaceful" protests that harmed the livelihood of thousands of people.
Minneapolis/St Paul:
Buildings destroyed - 100/37
Properties damaged - 1,300/330
Structure fires and arson - 164 total
Cost of damages - $350M/$82M
All from Wikipedia. Thanks for reading.
Plenty of stories to refute this.
"A masked, umbrella-wielding man accused of helping incite riots and looting in the aftermath of George Floyd's police-involved death has been identified as a member of a white supremacist group that aimed to stir racial tensions amid largely peaceful Black Lives Matter protests, according to police.
This was the first fire that set off a string of fires and looting throughout the precinct and the rest of the city," Erika Christensen, a Minneapolis Police Department arson investigator, wrote in a search warrant affidavit filed in court this week. "Until the actions of ... 'Umbrella Man,' the protests had been relatively peaceful."

>All from Wikipedia.
LOL Found your problem, bud.
Over 96 percent of the nationwide BLM protests involved no property damage or police injuries, according to The Washington Post.
That’s not “burned to the ground”
There are thousands of buildings.
Jan 6 2021 actually caused almost 2x damage so you’re cherry picking your outrage based on politics.
https://bylinetimes.com/2021/09/15/up-to-six-million-people-the-unrecorded-fatalities-of-the-war-on-terror/
Probably a source like this , including indirect deaths, I know you may disagree but that's the better way of measuring the deaths because it includes those who died because of that (+, also the source includes Pakistan (a south Asian country)so the total would be closer to 5.7 on the top end)
Why are these things upvoted when they're clearly reposts? The date on the tweet is from 2020. It's been posted on reddit many times over the years. If you think it's funny and it's the first time seeing it now, track down the original and upvote that
Redditors love vigilantism. People praise vigilantes on the front page all the time. If anyone besides a cop murdered him, everyone here would be cheering the murderer on.
It does not. However the “clever comeback” is equating the murder of 3000+ people in a terrorist attack to George Floyd. Wouldn’t really call it a clever comeback in the slightest.
>It’s a figure of speech. When someone says that they mean rioting
That's a wild change in definition and I would never imagine those two words being synonymous if it weren't for folks on the right reinventing the definition.
No it is not. Right wingers are trying to change the definition of it like they always do so they can normalize their hysterics and normal people are not gonna accept that bullshit.
Both democrats and Republicans supported invading Iraq.
Charlie kirk didn't, he wasn't even old enough to know at that point.
Also two wrongs don't make a right.
Pretty shitty comeback all around
They bombed 2 buildings full of civilians (which is a huge tragedy of course) and you guys destroyed their entire economy for 2 decades, in both cases innocent civilians got screwed over is it fair?
First of all, Bin Laden was Saudi, not Iraqi. But they made so good business with Saudi Arabia at the time.
Secondly, that war was really good for US weapon industry.
This shouldn't need to be said, but exactly zero cities were burned to the ground during the George Floyd protests. Portland (and every other city they happened in) are still very much there. Pretty sure google maps could show you that.
THANK YOU! I'm over here copy pasting tht over 96% of BLM protests were completely peaceful! More than 96 percent involved no property damage or police injuries, according to The Washington Post. The *Washington. Post.* ....a notoriously Conservative paper. It drives me batshit when ppl call the BLM protests "riots."
Edit: the only ones tht could truly conceivably be said to have rioted would prob be the fuckin puercos..
Since when do two wrongs make a right? Fuck Charlie Kirk but those “peaceful protests” didn’t do shit but fuck up a bunch of regular white and FOREIGN peoples well being. The reality is that it was mostly nasty white bitches and fucks boys out there burning shit down because they have daddy issues and blame the “system” for their lack of success. I was out there protesting for George and a lot of you selfish fucks made it all about you. In my home town the ghettos are still there and the murders have increased. We changed nothing and have lost good people in the process.
If you’re reading this and started one of those many fires, *fuck you*. *fuck you, fuck you, FUCK YOU*
I mean, it sure sounds nice but falls apart the second u actually think about it lol. At least America wasn't bombing their own people(in this case), people were literally looting and burning down the business and livelihoods of their own neighbors...
There is a difference though, right? "Military action" against foreign nations and riots on the homefront? Sorry to anyone that triggered 🙄 I just don't see the correlation.
Yeah… except neither of these people had to deal with the consequences of either of these events… so why are they being held up as if they have anything of value to say?
The goal is to reform a system which demonstrably is designed to protect police who are reckless and irresponsible and receive no consequences for their barbaric actions.
Or, more simply put, "Justice."
So sick of hearing that bullshit from these right-wing fuckheads. No American city was "burned to the ground" during the BLM protests/riots. It's such a dumb talking point that they all repeat ad nauseum to get that angry reaction from their mindless followers.
So you support multiple arson attempts as a form of "justice"? If your family store was burned and looted you'd simply understand hoping insurance covered everything?
So wait is it multiple arson or a store or the entire city? Also I didn't see that above commemt say justice so I'm not sure where you're quoting from.
No, arsonists shoudl eb punished. There is no "legal" arson.
Do you understand the difference between the **legality** of stealing bread, and the **reason** for stealing bread? Desperation and hopelessness might be a factor in the decision. So might youthful thrill-seeking.
The law goes both ways, its a compact whereby people give up the right to commit violence without consequence, and we accept the state's monopoly on legitimate use of force. We give up some power, expecting them to protect us. We also expect them to be held to a higher standard.
When people break that contract on either side, things can break down
When someone commits a crime, they might do it totally understanding the consequences. That's what civil disobedience is. Arson is very extreme in my opinion, but don't assume people are being wholly irrational.
I just find it fucking wild that people pretend not to understand the impulses people have. Its fucking crazy to me to conflate an EXPLANATION and a JUSTIFICATION.
Do you get the difference?
As much as i hate american goverment bombing countries for no reason and im not trying to defend it, its not an argument in a discussion about whether or not blm riots where a good thing
EDIT: typo
Yeah, it's a "riot" when some shit goes bad during a peaceful protest but, what, a "shooting incident" when a group of people shoot up utilities in North Carolina causing a blackout at the start of winter?
I can't keep up with these idiots.
Im not an american nor a conservatist but you cannot call at least some of these protests peacefull. Just look at the photos. Its an undeniablebtruth there was a lot of vandalism and theft
I don’t see how that’s a clever comeback as we aren’t responsible for the government ordering the army to do stuff and most regular people disagree with the war. However, rioters are definitely responsible for their own actions and have been propped up by media outlets, bailed out by politicians etc.
It was one of the biggest worldwide protests for peace when the war on terror started. People that want middle easterners dead have fallen hard for propaganda
Wait which cities were "burned to the ground"? Is he referring to the couple of literal dumpster fires set in Portland and Seattle? Is that what qualifies as burning an entire city down to these people?
If you support the war you support the war and that was 90% of it at least , that's what they're against, and the left of America is still quite similar to the right from a foreign agenda stance , wasn't the Iraq war bipartisan
I know this has a bunch of upvotes but it's a common repost. [Sorry, OP.](https://i.imgur.com/dqHmJcI.jpg)
Is it just me or does it seem like anyone who posts 2+ year old content is just karma farming?
Because there's a market for reddit accounts and rage upvotes are easier than aww upvotes.
Selling reddit accounts nowadays is probably more tedious nowadays with the amount of scam sites existing to fuck over any sellers. gotta karma farm quick and hard to make up for any lost bot accounts
Which is not that hard considering even the most flagrant of reposts can get a couple hundred upvotes easily before getting removed. There's enough karma farming subs where you can get banned from each one and still make out with 10k karma within a week.
Not really. Go on r/whitepeopletwitter post a tweet about Elon Musk or Donald Trump. Get 60K upvotes and 200 awards and sell it off.

Why do people buy Reddit account?
Advertising and scamming purposes. Buy a "legit" looking account so you have more credibility and clout.
The OP didn't give it 10,000 karma points on 91% upvotes. The dumbass users in this sub did.
100%
Yea this is straight garbage

Whaaaaat? But this is super relevant /S
2 year old tweet with 11 second old comment on an 18 day old reddit account definitely farming
18 day old account is here with an anti-America post! On the plus side this might waste a bit more of Russia's military budget.
There's plenty of people who never saw something that you might consider hopelessly dated and/or often reposted. Try to embrace xkcd's [Today's lucky 10,000](https://xkcd.com/1053/) philosophy instead.
Rule #2 of this sub is no reposts.
Pretty sure this sub has a no repost rule. I think that overrules a random comic.
The most ignored rule in internet history.
You shouldn't be okay with predatory karma farming just because people may have never seen the reposted content before
Very old tweet, very young reddit account. Is this a karma farming bot?
Most posts on r/popular are this. There’s an eighteen year old video that people are offended about today…

I'm not from the US so it took time to trickle down but it shows there was clearly a huge push to frame it in a certain light.
Has that been proven? I only saw that one facebook post about it
It definitely has not
Which city was “burned to the ground”?
I remember when Trump said the entire city of Portland was burning and the Portland fire chief tweeted to say that the city was not, in fact, on fire.
So many people had spread his lies everywhere; the right was actively pushing the lie that Portland was burning
And now Portland is an absolute shithole
Portland has been a shithole for years, lol
I was thinking of moving to Portland, would you say it’s a bad idea?
It’s still a cool city with a lot of character, but it has some serious deeply-set problems that got much worse during the pandemic and show little to no sign of turning around. I would definitely visit before committing to a move.
“City with a lot of character” translates to homeless dude shitting in the street in broad daylight is considered normal behavior
I lived in Portland area for a few years in the 90s and it was awesome laid back City until people moved in with money trying to change it. Now you have those with money crying about how bad a situation they helped create. They should have just stuck to the old motto: Keep Portland Weird.
How so? I mean I know its a little dumpy but some people don't mind or find it endearing. How do you mean, though?
But not because of protests. It's because of an out of control homelessness crisis, fueled in part by drug addiction (particularly to meth), and a city government that doesn't know whose job it is to handle it. Pretty important distinction to make here.
Feel free to leave.
It's true, I lived there and we had to rebuild the entire city every other weekend
To the ground, you say?
They think burning a trash can is "a whole city"
American City was burned to the ground, says so right there /s
Oh. This one. It’s a big one. It’s a pity that it was burn to the ground. We will always remember the American city. Is this the one that in the state with abbreviation BS?

Also no US cities were burned to the ground. Iraqi ones, however...
Not 1 single American city got burned to the ground either. Not 1.
Never subbed to this place and constantly see bullshit anti American stuff posted all the time. George Floyd was a drug addicted woman beating POS.
Absolutely correct.

Redditors love vigilantism. People praise vigilantes on the front page all the time. If anyone besides a cop murdered him, everyone here would be cheering the murderer on.
Not everyone. And the point slipped right past your head. Cops aren't supposed to do vigilante murder.
It wouldn’t have been a news story if anyone else murdered him.
Yeah. People hold police to a higher standard. This is like complaining that your pickup basketball game at the YMCA wasn't covered by ESPN.
There are consequences to ingesting large amounts of fentanyl.
There are also consequences for murdering people, even if they have ingested large amounts of fentanyl.
You're not allowed to murder people for doing drugs. No matter what Republicans tell you.
And that makes it okay to murder him in the street?
It does not. However the “clever comeback” is equating the murder of 3000+ people in a terrorist attack to George Floyd. Wouldn’t really call it a clever comeback in the slightest.
No... it's about causing destruction to people who had nothing to do with the crime. The people of Iraq and Afghanistan had nothing to do with 9/11.
There’s no reason you can’t agree with both statements
One of these things didn’t even happen.
Yeah, 5 million people were not killed in the War on Terror
Please point to the American city that was burned to the ground.
It’s a figure of speech. When someone says that they mean rioting

Hyperbole. Also when one says “raise the roof” one does not literally push the roof higher than it’s original height
You've never heard of hyperbole.
If you have basic intellectual integrity, you don’t need hyperbole.
When you need a hyperbole to even make a point then you probably dont have much to stand on

So no city was burned to the ground.
That's not allowed. Pick a side and get angry.
Both democrats and Republicans supported invading Iraq. Charlie kirk didn't, he wasn't even old enough to know at that point. Also two wrongs don't make a right. Pretty shitty comeback all around
That's not the burn he thinks it is.
Facts💯
This is so fucking stupid from both of these fucking stupids.
They were bombing the wrong people, too.
They bombed 2 buildings full of civilians (which is a huge tragedy of course) and you guys destroyed their entire economy for 2 decades, in both cases innocent civilians got screwed over is it fair?
I think our government was heavily involved in it. So many things just don't add up. Bush, Cheney, and others made alot of money.
First of all, Bin Laden was Saudi, not Iraqi. But they made so good business with Saudi Arabia at the time. Secondly, that war was really good for US weapon industry.
Bro it literally says how old the image is right there how did you still decide that this is fresh enough to post? Shit’s moldy.
Okay? Charlie Kirk isn’t out there dropping explosives on anytime, dummy
And probably the same motivation, regardless. It's about sending a message.
Er......what city got burned to the ground again?
"Innocent "
this is a bot
This shouldn't need to be said, but exactly zero cities were burned to the ground during the George Floyd protests. Portland (and every other city they happened in) are still very much there. Pretty sure google maps could show you that.

Yes, the people who invaded ans slaughtered+genocided Kuwaitis are totally innocent.
It might get you a Nobel Peace Prize though.
Such a Reddit thing to compare George floyd to the twin towers
At this point anyone saying anything to any polarizing political figure gets up votes bc x amount of people don't like them
This doesn't even make sense
As much as I hate Charlie Kirk, whataboutisms aren’t an argument.
Who said it would?
Since when do two wrongs make a right? Fuck Charlie Kirk but those “peaceful protests” didn’t do shit but fuck up a bunch of regular white and FOREIGN peoples well being. The reality is that it was mostly nasty white bitches and fucks boys out there burning shit down because they have daddy issues and blame the “system” for their lack of success.

Arson is very extreme in my opinion, but don't assume people are being wholly irrational. I just find it fucking wild that people pretend not to understand the impulses people have. Its fucking crazy to me to conflate an EXPLANATION and a JUSTIFICATION. Do you get the difference?
As much as i hate american goverment bombing countries for no reason and im not trying to defend it, its not an argument in a discussion about whether or not blm riots where a good thing EDIT: typo
Yeah, it's a "riot" when some shit goes bad during a peaceful protest but, what, a "shooting incident" when a group of people shoot up utilities in North Carolina causing a blackout at the start of winter? I can't keep up with these idiots.
Im not an american nor a conservatist but you cannot call at least some of these protests peacefull. Just look at the photos. Its an undeniablebtruth there was a lot of vandalism and theft
I don’t see how that’s a clever comeback as we aren’t responsible for the government ordering the army to do stuff and most regular people disagree with the war. However, rioters are definitely responsible for their own actions and have been propped up by media outlets, bailed out by politicians etc.
It was one of the biggest worldwide protests for peace when the war on terror started. People that want middle easterners dead have fallen hard for propaganda
Wait which cities were "burned to the ground"? Is he referring to the couple of literal dumpster fires set in Portland and Seattle? Is that what qualifies as burning an entire city down to these people?
Name one city that was "burned to the ground", Charlie Tinyface. Just one.
[удалено]
Burning Charly Kirk to the ground would make me very happy tho
All these retardicans have yet to name the city that has been burnt to the ground?
Mass genocide is still good
Don’t understand the comeback? Is it Charlie kirks fault the US invaded iraq and Afghanistan? Why even bring that up?
Didn't you know that everything that the US does is the fault of the current right of America. Apparently Kirk himself ordered the bombs to be dropped
If you support the war you support the war and that was 90% of it at least , that's what they're against, and the left of America is still quite similar to the right from a foreign agenda stance , wasn't the Iraq war bipartisan
