Yeah I'm so fucking fed up with people spreading misinformation these days. We used to hate misinformation on reddit and now people are fine with it if it aligns with their narrative. They'll even attack you for pointing it out most of the time.

We all have a responsibility to call this shit out and not upvote or spread it.

People on apps in May 2026 find popularity and friendships based on #OutGrouphate
Everyone is avoiding Dr. Bandy X Lee on mental health
#PatternOfPop

Pattern of Popularity
Bluesky social media popular message
Reddit social media popular message

1. “I Love War” because it means mental health failed to prevent war

2. “I love War because it means Love One Another idea is a failure!”

3. I love to see MAGA be abused by Fox News NYC HDTV network. Because NYC Trump, NYC Fox News network.

4. When MAGA faces are eaten by billionaire Fox News Murdoch, FUN! Joke content, humor, amusement, laughs at abuse!

This is the way to be popular on Reddit Bluesky apps.

Donald Trump can charm anyone into not being worried about mass dehumanization. #GullibleUSA

Donald Trump is so entertaining, people in USA adore Trump.

This one isn't real, but this is effectively what they've voted for. I have seen other people complaining about their insulin.

So far my insurance hasn't fucked with my insulin copays, but I have noticed my pharmacy is starting to run into supply issues again.

I feel like that's what happened to that old Trump related subreddit that got super popular.

I remember checking it out early on, and it was wild, silly, goofy all-caps messages proclaiming silly Trump to be incredible.

But over time, it morphed from a silly joke, to a depressing joke, as more and more of them really DID believe the nonsense that was being spouted there.

Same with #Mastodon #Twitter - people who disappear content criticizing #DonaldTrump / #MAGA and go into #Egomania over their power to censor + block information on serious topics of hate and machine

Reddit society thinks it is great to see people they disagree with banned from platforms - while Reddit is overrun with multiple nation-state insincere anonymous accounts that manipulate admins into banning real people.

JD Vance just launched a Bluesky account and it was suspended almost immediately

1-month newly created Reddit account with simple-think denial promotion. Anything to keep the topic away from social-media information warfare itself since 2013.

Reddit users only post the REAL NAMES of people like Donald Trump and Elon Musk on the front page, they hide REAL NAMES of unpopular, ordinary, non-famous, no-rich people. #SelfDehuman
