I’m trying something new idk. I make funny posts with hundreds to 1000+ up votes all the time. Then occasionally I make a ragebait post. The general idea on these is a bit different. I’m curious to see what the general lemmy population has to say about influential figures/platforms. Posting it here based on moderation 1, allows me to do it and 2, allows people to answer in whatever way they want (mostly). If they get 1000 votes down or up, who cares. I just wanna see what the general reaction is. I guess starting out with Joe Rogan and Reddit were probably a bit too incendiary. Based on votes though, lemmy hates Rogan more than Reddit, which is surprising.
Don’t get me wrong, I expected hate for both. I just figured Reddit moreso. Based around the way people talk about it and the frequency its brought up.
I figured the hate for reddit would be larger than the hate for an individual, thats all. Strictly based on how often and how passionately I see people trash reddit here.
Ah, I misunderstood you then. I thought you mean the Reddit folks hating Joe Rogan less than the Lemmy folks hate Joe Organ.
Even so, Joe Rogan is a person they hate ideologically, while Reddit is a platform they liked, but got abused by people to the point of them not liking it.
Ahhh that clears up a lot. Still, I wouldn’t be surprised. One is a person they hate ideologically, another is a platform they liked back in the day but just has gone into the wrong direction.
What’s the point of these posts?

I guess, but you’ll likely find people downvote due to the style of content, rather then the contents of said post.
That’s okay
Fair enough, as you were.
Why are you surprised by Lemmy hating Joe Rogan more than Reddit?

People are way more left-leaning over here than there.
Chippy means lemmy hates Rogan more than lemmy hates Reddit, i think. It was ambiguous but that’s what I gleaned.

It’s the ‘being surprised’ part that’s being argued.

Because reddit is like talking to thousands of joe rogans.
Nah, not sure what communities you’ve been hanging out at
All of them.
I applaud you executing these experiments but please do so with caution and stick to the scientific method.
