Reddit is a discussion forum (NOT "social media"; they are two different things, and discussion forums predated social media by several decades) that COULD be a nice place to hold interesting conversations about any number of topics, if it were run by people who had a clue about how to maintain order, but since it is not, it is a playground for adolescent bullies and bitter male virgins, who quash dissenting views with mass downvotes even though the rules say that this is not what the downvote is for (but nobody listens, and the moderators don't enforce this), the worst kind of racists, misogynists, homophobes, transphobes, and just general sociopaths that you will ever come across, power-tripping subreddit mods who think they're God because they run a tiny little corner of the Internet, and where the idiot that you're arguing with might literally be 14 (this is not even hyperbole; they actually let minors use the site, even places like /r/sex that minors should DEFINITELY not be posting in).
There's a subreddit called /r/Negareddit that supposedly calls out all of the rest of Reddit's horrid tendencies, but in reality it's not even much better or different, people in that sub engage in all the same old bullshit too.
Even subs pertaining to topics that you like and are interested in, are probably not worth participating in, because of the people there.
Honestly, the only good thing on Reddit is the very prolific amount of user-submitted porn.

Go to Reddit if you want to be called an asshole in 67,735 different ways within an hour no matter what you say, observe some of the worst specimens that humanity has to offer, and have your very character called into question by people who have never felt the touch of a woman, but if you actually want to have a mature, logical discussion about anything, you're going to have a bad time.

The ban hammer is a power that website moderators have access to, that makes them feel as if they are dictators of the universe because they run a tiny little corner of the Internet, and that they wield like a club, to silence and intimidate any user who doesn't bow down to their fake Internet authority, or questions their decisions, which are always infallible, of course, because they are gods.

An annoyingly religious person. Does NOT just mean anyone who is religious/believes in God, but minds their own business and is a decent person. God-botherers are people who do not shut the fuck up about their religion, whine about profanity and sexuality in everyday culture like it's 1950, worry too much about what other people are doing, think the reason for teen pregnancy is that we don't have enough prayer in schools, and try to get their religion written into law, and binding even upon non-believers, because they don't understand the concepts of separation of church and state, and a pluralistic society.
"God-botherer" is actually a GREAT insult, because it implies that even assuming that their God is real, they even bother God with their bullshit, God Him/Her/Them/Itself is even like "You guys need to chill out".

I said "God damn it" in a Facebook comment and some God-botherers came at me telling me that I was wicked and going to Hell for using blasphemous language, so I told them that Mary was a slut who loved taking it in the ass, just to watch them have a REAL meltdown.

(Sometimes shortened to just "woo") A catch-all term for all the non-scientific, magical-thinking, mystical bullshit that human beings the world over believe in, that should have been dispensed with a LONG time ago by anyone with half a brain, but annoyingly still persists into the 21st century. Includes tarot, astrology, crystal vibrations, fortune telling, reiki, alternative medicine, ghosts, Ouija boards, palm-reading, seances, homeopathy, and all other similar flavors of total horseshit. Importantly, does NOT include religion, because religion is a whole other, higher echelon of irrational thinking that is its own separate category.
Dumbass: I aligned my third, fourth and seventh chakras on the cusp of Taurus and communed with my dead ancestors, who told me that you will have good fortune in the coming year. Now give me your money, please.
Rational Person: Get out of here with that woo-woo shit.

I used to say I didn't give a flying fuck, but then I took a vacation to the UK with my girl and on the way there, I decided to change that.

The granddaddy of all swear words, in America we're weirdly offended by this word for some reason, whereas the Brits and Aussies know that it's no more offensive than any other vulgar word. Some people say it's inherently a slur against women, which is just silly, it CAN be a slur against women if you're a misogynist shitbird who just uses it that way, otherwise it's just another swear word and we Americans need to get over it.
Literally it's a perfectly good slang word for the female genitals, figuratively it refers to a person (of any gender) who is SO unpleasant and awful, that lesser swear words just won't do, and thus it serves a legitimate linguistic need and we should all stop being such cunts about the word cunt.

In Scotland they practically greet each other by calling each other cunts, why are we so uptight about the word cunt in this stupid cunt-ry?
