It's sad because posts like this get tens of thousands of upvotes, whereas actual artistic photography gets maybe 500 at best.

That sub is a small bit of pics and the rest is just hating on Trump. They ought to just do that in their own sub

Cranks_No_Start

They should just rename the sub r / politics-pics


SnooPredictions3028

The mods have made it that way


AlbiTuri05

I always wonder why subs are always taken over by radicals, if not fanatics, of a political party. I remember there was a guy who funded one of the biggest subs, but then he wasn't much into moderating so he gave his sub to some people, clueless that they were gonna turn the sub into one of those political cesspools.


mgldi

It’s not hard to imagine people, specifically younger people being easily swayed in a direction politically on social media. What you see on popular subreddits like pics and politics is 100% intentional. The posts are carefully curated, enhanced by bot upvotes and is throttled up big time during election season. These people are here to push you in one direction and have you vote one way


AlbiTuri05

This makes me lucky for getting out of this circle before reaching the age to vote

There was a mod called Awkward the Turtle. He gave himself a bad name by moderating a lot of big subs

how does "child rapist" get 43k upvotes? im not even a republican but this is just stupid and politically motivated


bunker_man

I think it's not meant as a joke. It's meant to get it onto Google images when people Google the phrase.


emurange205

Who is googling the phrase "child rapist"?

It’s likely some combination of the words “trump” and “child rapist”

record of the Epstein 2008 case just got unsealed that info from that makes if clear Trump is a pedophile for raping 12 and 13 year olds. For some wierd reason very main stream media doesn't talk about it so you get these kinds of posts.


queenlacheefahh

The case has been dismissed multiple times for lack of validity. Its all just gas lighting and misinformation to cover up the fact that Biden is utterly incompetent at this stage after what we saw in the debate. 


DontHugMeImBanned

That and his own accusations. Like the ones from his daughter's diary. But that accusation is far too flimsy to talk about seriously.. it's weird which rumours get air time or which victims are taken seriously. Wait, not weird. Convenient. That's the word. It's _Convenient_ which unproven stories these sort of people wield like a weapon and which they dismiss like the same criteria doesn't apply.


queenlacheefahh

Even when a surprise story against Biden breaks the whole media and government come together to change the narrative and cover it up. When hunter bidens laptop was discovered, its existence was vehemently denied and they even got 50 FBI agents to lie and sign a letter saying it was “Russian disinformation” which we know now was incredibly false. 


Aggressive-Neck-3921

It was settled not dismissed, likely epstein pulled some strings because a lot of higher ups were involved with him. Thinking this is fabricated just to hurt Trump is insane, a lot of powerful people in the media probably killed this story at the time.


LuciWavesss

Because it's accurate.


Not_a_creativeuser

So any accurate random fact will be upvoted like that on the sub?


Constant-Science7393

He was never convicted of raping a child. Accusations of that scale shouldn’t just be made lightly.


Le_Dairy_Duke

Biden's a child sniffer


historynerdsutton

donald trump has been allocated (and denied of claims) of rape but not child rape. ofc it doesnt make it better but its false info


Crash1yz

When was he convicted of rape? Source ?


SpartanFishy

I’d like to note for future readers here that while Trump has not been convicted of rape, he has lost a civil suit on raping a woman. Basically, the court determined it was more likely than not that he raped someone. Also, in regards to child rape, his name just came up in released Epstein documents as being booked for “massages”. Make of that what you will.


mowaby

They didn't even say it was rape. NY changed a law for 1 year just so he could be sued for this alleged decades old sexual assault.


TheCeleryIsReal

A kangaroo court produced a ridiculous judgment against him based on the claims of E. Jean Carroll, who provided exactly zero evidence of her claims and is a genuine nutjob to boot. Things like this aren’t swaying anyone who isn’t a tribal partisan leftist. Also, source on there being anything new in the Epstein docs regarding Trump? The specific thing you referenced isn’t new, it’s old and unproven.

Reddit in a nutshell.


thepixelatedbanana

Reddit has an unhealthy obsession for Donald Trump.


Gorganzoolaz

True, and they accuse anyone who's sick of their endless circle jerk of being a supporter of his as well as a million other terrible things.


AlbiTuri05

Or, if the sick guy is not American, they claim Reddit is an American website just to excuse their obsession with Trump and make themselves feel on the right side. ^(Reddit Democrats are nationalists and racists. Who would expect that? I apologize to the Democrats who are not nationalist and racist, I didn't mean to make a big generalization.)


Reasonable-Writer730

> they claim Reddit is an American website To be fair, it is. The HQ is within the US and just about 1 in 2 posters are from the US.


AlbiTuri05

Technically it is. But it is not "by Americans for Americans", it's "by Americans for the world". Reddit is worldwide.


OMGitsVal117

It’s all hate. Ok a little bit of love. Alright fine maybe some lust as well.


StreatPeat

Trump derangement syndrome.

football_for_brains

Yes, redditors are *sooo* obssessed with Trump. [Redditors live in houses like this.](https://nypost.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/10/102316_coppa_trump_lindenhurst03.jpg?quality=75&strip=all) [Redditors drive vehicles like this.](https://c8.alamy.com/comp/S3AXNY/pickup-truck-with-trump-flags-S3AXNY.jpg) [Redditors dress like this.](https://www.cleveland.com/resizer/v2/https%3A%2F%2Fadvancelocal-adapter-image-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fimage.cleveland.com%2Fhome%2Fcleve-media%2Fwidth2048%2Fimg%2Fopen_impact%2Fphoto%2Ftrump-tshirts-8d76bb5538a54f2c.jpeg?auth=a430b07931961142b8bcdabce449203fa3fb4abfde31d6b261adbfe0f7e13905&width=1280&quality=90) It's like their entire personality is based on how obsessed they are with Trump.


iamhappyso

"Trump's supporters are also obsessed with him therefore your point is invalid"


football_for_brains

I was just making sure we established a clear definition of what "unhealthy" means. Redditors would like nothing more than for Trump to disappear from their lives forever. Only one group wants him around.


TheDudeWhogroans

pics was good at one point but it has gone downhill recently


LogiHiminn

Since 2016. That’s when I unsubscribed.


Alpham3000

I honestly still find it good. However the problem is when there’s something big going on like an election coming up. Everything becomes political. While I personally don’t care, there’s a million of other places to post it because many people do care and don’t want to see that.


ohhhbooyy

Someone should post a pic of Biden and title it “child sniffer” and see how quickly it gets taken down.


Alpham3000

Wasn’t the original video that everyone is referencing that supposedly proves Biden is a child sniffer edited?


ohhhbooyy

Which video? Because there’s is a bunch of them.


Draken5000

Cope


Alpham3000

I’m literally just asking a question. lol. Cause if I remember correctly, the video was edited to make it seem like he sniffed a child. If you can find evidence against that, be my guest.


macaroniinapan

I just unsubscribed from there a few hours ago too. For the same exact reason. It is so frustrating how so many subs are turning into political circle jerks. It's not like there aren't 53 bazillion other subs, and places online other than reddit, if you want to talk like that. Even if it's politics I agree with - I have certain subs to go to for that and we don't need to talk about EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE. Sorry for my rant.


aidv

It’s because most top subs are moderated by the same few people.


ohhhbooyy

Most of them probably hates oligopoly too, but probably don’t see an issue with a few of them moderating all the top subs.


AlbiTuri05

Velrex

I thought the same in 2016 and 2020. It just piles on and gets worse each time.

Pick any random number of posts in order there, at least 80% would be about US political propaganda.

I’m not even American, I unsubscribe from every sub that spams me with American politics, and pics is notorious for doing that lol


Creampie_Senpai_69

I unsubscribe due to this exact fact. I dont care which senile old billionaire gets electec as we have our own problems here overseas. And many of these problems are due to the shit the americans did 20 years ago.

Beardeddeadpirate

Who are you even talking about?


RelationshipCrazy372

I think it’s who is controlling the old man that is the problem.


SpartanFishy

So the establishment vs person who’s actively tried to overturn the democratic process.


monobarreller

Lol you don't actually care. The guy who was elected has not been in charge, probably this whole time, and you don't seem very offended by that. Also, the fact that you have been lied to about his health, repeatedly for years, doesn't seem to concern you either. This revelation should at least give you pause and question all the other things the democrats have told you. If they're willing to lie about something sooooo obvious, don't you think they would be willing to lie about things that are slightly ambiguous? And you folks have the nerve to accuse the GOP and Trump supporters of being in a cult...


SpartanFishy

It’s politics, obviously the Dems are going to argue he’s not that old, he’s their candidate. I’ve never agreed with their arguments. Your assertion that he’s not in charge however just seems to be based entirely on vibes. The vast majority of what happens under a president is done by appointees and other staff. This is true of any president and is why things run smoothly regardless of Biden’s age. But if he were truly not the final say on things and an outright puppet, he would have stepped down from the election race by now, because the establishment dems see that he’s clearly not a good candidate and are asking him to do it. You’re accusing me outright of being in a cult here, but I barely like Biden. I haven’t touted him at all in this conversation. But the blatant ignoring of any downside of Trump by the right is so frustrating to deal with. Like, admit that he’s a bad person who’s done terrible things, but that you’re willing to vote for him because of policy anyways. At least be honest with yourselves.


monobarreller

Buddy you are absolutely in a cult. We all saw that Biden can't string a sentence together much less be in charge of the nuclear codes. Am administration is there to help the president do their job not have unfettered control of their departments. Trump made a good point during the debate, Biden has never fired anyone in his administration. Heads should have rolled after he Afghanistan failure. Heads should have rolled over his immigration failure, and Heads should have rolled after his failure with the economy. But Biden isn't mentally there to do it. You guys talk about "muh democracy" but clearly you don't give a shit about it. We elect a president. Not his fucking staff. And as I just noted, his administration is doing a VERY shitty job. Biden is losing on almost every key issue to Trump and that was before we all saw his dementia on full display. So yeah, you're in a cult. You've got blinders up if you can't accept the fact that this president/administration/party has grossly failed the American people. And if you have to look for excuses as to why his dementia isn't a horrific thing (not to mention the fact that you're fine with obvious elder abuse) then yeah you definitely are in a cult.


SpartanFishy

You’ve not addressed a singular issue of trumps, you’ve completely ignored them. Why?


monobarreller

Because a) nothing anyone has said or accused him of is new so there's no sense in going over it again and again and again and b) THE CURRENT PRESIDENT HAS DEMENTIA that seems to be a more serious, real issue at the moment. I'm sorry if a real actual serious ongoing problem interrupted your Trump bitchfest but if you can't focus on that fact for any amount of time without going "B-b-but Trump" then yeah you really need to consider the fact that you may be in a cult.


Redditusername195

lol are you talking about trump or biden


THE_AbsRadiance

i’d vote for a pedophile felon over a pedophile dementia patient who can’t walk down stairs. i’d rather vote for someone under the age of 70 but that seems to be out of the question sadly. (also their both grifting the public, they’re politicians, that’s their job.)


SpartanFishy

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Biden hasn’t been found liable for rape in court, Trump has. And correct me if I’m wrong, but Biden didn’t come up in Epstein documents recently as being booked for massages, Trump has. And correct me if I’m wrong, but Biden hasn’t brazenly tried to overturn the American democratic process to such an extent that he’s facing multiple felonies in court, Trump has.


shumpitostick

Trump was not found liable for rape at court. If he was he would be in jail, lol. Trump was not implicated in pedophilia in the Epstein documents. He was simply an associate of Epstein. So were Bill Clinton and a bunch of other top democrats. Epstein was friend of half of the world's leaders. Don't let ideology fuck your brain and make you believe in misinformation. There are so many real and terrible things that Trump did, there's no need to make up shit.


SpartanFishy

Liable in civil court, yea he was. And was ordered to pay for it. He was not however found guilty, which would be in criminal court. Basically civil court has the burden of proof of “more likely than not”. And he lost to that burden of proof. New Epstein documents were released in the past couple days, specifically marking trump as booked for massages. You may not be up to date on that. Anyone else who was booked for massages, Clinton or otherwise, would similarly raise my eyebrows. I’m really not a super ideologically driven person, I think the Overton window on acceptability on the right has just shifted to such an extreme degree that even the craziest of actions by Trump get brushed off as no big deal. Edit: It’s really fucking depressing that the comment above got upvoted and this got downvoted.


thesleepiestsaracen

I too have noticed shareblue does a bad job at upvoting comments.


shumpitostick

> liable in civil court You're talking about Stormy Daniels? This wasn't rape and she wasn't a minor. He was found to be falsifying documents, that's it. > New Epstein documents There's nothing new here. Just a few documents relating to a case that we already knew about from 2016, which multiple media sources attempted to fact check and did not find to be reliable. Source: https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2016/11/3/13501364/trump-rape-13-year-old-lawsuit-katie-johnson-allegation There are no other Epstein documents linking Trump or Clinton to massage or other sexual things. I'm not excusing any Trump action, I'm just trying to fight some of the misinformation that has become increasingly prevant on Reddit.


Alpha2-1

Let’s see - Biden - Old, Has a stutter Trump - 91 felony charges, Rapist, Was on epstein island, Made fun of POWS and soldiers, shared nuclear secrets, tried to overthrow the government on jan 6th, shared information of CIA Agents with Russia, and also old. Yeah i don’t know about this one guys, this is a **really** hard choice.


SnooPredictions3028

Lol you're so full of it. No he wasn't on the island, no he didn't make fun of POW he made fun of the POS McCain which liberals did until they sucked the establishment cock to reveal they had no real ideals, no he didn't share nuclear secrets, no Jan 6th was already debunked, no he didn't share CIA info with Russia, and no he isn't a rapist violating the rules of court to get what you want isn't exactly a win. As for Joe I'd like to say he could be convicted of things, however they said he's too old and feeble to stand trial yet can still apparently run for president. He hid documents from when he was VP in the home he rented to his son (for above the usual prices of homes in the area, which was likely to funnel money from his son's deals and positions he gained from his dad being in office) in an unsecured garage during the time when his son would frequently have random guests over who could easily see these documents. Plus there's the alogations from his daughter that he would sometimes get into the shower with her naked, plus the countless videos of him sniffing children and women, fondling children, and the parents around him trying to maneuver their kids away from him. And no I won't make up an accusation that he went to the island since like Trump there isn't evidence he went there.


THE_AbsRadiance

let’s ACTUALLY see trump - awful person, 91 felony charges, (not actually proven to be a rapist and may not be one), is associated with other billionaires, is a billionaire (automatically makes him a bad person), (never actually tried to overthrow the government, i don’t know if people just don’t know what happened jan 6th or if they’re just high on copium), old biden - awful person, dozens of instances of him being a pedophile, rapist, awful person, is associated with billionaires, literally doesn’t have enough mental capacity to make a single speech, cannot talk coherently, cannot comprehend how to use stairs, cannot think for himself (doesn’t have the mental capacity), cannot walk for himself (doesn’t have the mental capacity, is not anywhere close to *resembling* fit for office. literally. cannot. lead. “bad person” over “literally to stupid to lead” any day.


brdlee

Hahaha I love the typos in a post about how dumb Biden is. If you are not a soros bot good job at mocking conservatives spot on satire.


SpartanFishy

Fuck. Thank you! I feel like I’m taking crazy pills talking to some people about this election.


monobarreller

You are. Biden isn't just old with a stutter. He has dementia. If you can't recognize that, you need to step away from politics because you have terrible judgement. Literally everyone can see it.


SpartanFishy

So between a narcissistic maniac that has tried to overturn democracy, has felonies and significantly more in court, and has Epstein documents clearly labelling him as booked for massages… and a senile guy. You choose the former? Like, I get it, Biden is faltering. I have never really disagreed with this take. But even if he was comatose in a bed, the vast vast majority of tasks done by his administration are carried out by staff and appointees. It wouldn’t be ideal, strong leadership is a good thing, but it wouldn’t be country-ending. Compare this to someone that has actively tried to usurp an election. And whom once in power has now been legally granted immunity from basically any action he undertakes while in office. That may not be country ruining, maybe. But do you really want to take that chance?


monobarreller

Dude, have you ever stopped to ask yourself, if the democrats are willing to lie to you for years about Biden's obvious dementia, what else are they willing to lie about? You have TDS, it's very clear that you've let your political hatred cloud your judgement and you need to step away from politics. I get the sense that your probably miserable on a general level and politics isnt helping that. But this is a good opportunity to step away, take stock in what you've been lied to about, and determine how much and for how long you've allowed yourself to be lied to. You may realize that a lot of what you've been told about Trump may not be as accurate as you think. Good luck!


Alpha2-1

I know right? It’s what the far right does. They live in their own echo chamber of lies. They lie so much, they start to believe their own lies.

OMGitsVal117

WHY ARE THESE THE ONLY TWO OPTIONS?! Please give me a good democrat candidate. I’ll rub your shoulders if you do.


Alpha2-1

Biden may not be the best president - and i wouldn’t call him amazing, but he’s all we got. I don’t want that criminal trump, who can give less than two shits about america, or its people, to be above the law and sitting in the white house. Voting biden is a vote against authoritarianism. Also, if you WANT TO SEE what trump would like to do, google Project 2025..

RoultRunning

No, actually. He's been convicted of falsifying business records. He went to an infamous island (which doesn't mean much, it just means he went.), and there are allegations. But that's it.


SnooPredictions3028

He actually didn't go to the Island, if I remember correctly he did use the plain to go to his resort, however unlike others he cut off his relationship with him when Epstein was inappropriate with his staff.


football_for_brains

> He went to an infamous island (which doesn't mean much, it just means he went.) The recent proof that came out shows he was booked for "massages" on the island. An island used for child sex trafficking. Are you still pretending he's innocent? Remember, Epstein was "suicided" while Trump was President with Bill Barr as his AG.


Spooksnav

Funny how this "proof" comes out after Biden flounders hard in front of 200 million people.


brdlee

I mean everything is a conspiracy to y’all so not that funny.


Superriguess

no, its just people trying to propaganda-bait you into voting towards whatever side they're on that day


football_for_brains

There's proof that he had appointments on Epstein's island to receive "massages" where all the sex trafficking victims were underage. The truth is screaming at you in the face, but Trump supporters have decided they're deaf.


SnooPredictions3028

Show me, was it planned or did he actually go? If I plan to go to a party but don't and something terrible happens there, that doesn't then mean I was a part of that terrible thing.


brdlee

Yeah and even if he did go. Did he stick it in. Knowing Trump he respectfully declined and went home and had the maid jerk him off.

And honestly, people acted like that wasn't a rhetorical question... The OP's username is "Turd_Burglerson".... It's a troll account. Like when people are so blinded by hatred and malice that they completely forsake any common sense or prior knowledge.. it's a bad time. I dont care who you vote for... But running around desensitizing people en masse to the severity and gravity of terms like 'Child rapist'... Isn't the best idea. It's disgusting.

So, out of all subs turning political, which ones actually don't get political? In the Disturbed sub the lead singer is being hated on for his stance on the Gaza/Hamas war. It's just inevitable.

calvesofsteel68

Why are people calling him a pedo did i miss something???


Jokesonyouiwannadie

Simple fix for me was to block the accounts posting that shit. It's usually only a handful of em. I don't see that post on r\pics. Most likely because I've already blocked them. I haven't seen a political post from there in a while. If I see anything political from any sub I block the account that posted it. Besides, those accounts post shit like that on other subs too. Gonna unsub from all of them? Nah. Just block the account. That's my take anyway. You're not always gonna be able to escape it but you can at least trim the fat.

I think it's just the tendency of subs to be left-wing circlejerks. If there were more right-wing cesspools, there would be more leftist posts in here.


grizznuggets

For someone with the flair “Tired of politics” you sure bring up politics a lot.

I try to talk with people instead of imposing myself. Reddit is full of people without charisma, it doesn't need me to be one too


grizznuggets

What does that even mean?


grizznuggets

Big time, but don’t expect people to agree with you despite overwhelming evidence.


scaredchiggun

Trump derangement syndrome.


brdlee

Seriously imagine defending this man-child just because Biden is old.

R/pics is a default sub that has been around for years. It’s been a shithole for over a decade.


Silver-Fang-Bang

Posted by a guy who’s voting for Biden ironic isn’t it


dutch_mapping_empire

i like the political circlejerk posts but don't they deserve their own sub?

political bots


YgemKaaYT

Lol that post is so funny for some reason


Multispoilers

Been that way since 2016. Literally this site’s downfall.


EntrepreneurKey597

And yet they completely ignore the fact that Joe Biden's daughter had a diary about him r wording her. 🤷‍♂️


ChocolateSafe9529

how is this a "pic"


that_one_author

I love the idea they’re spreading, “when in doubt, lie about your political opponent.”


ShingisMcDowell

There’s but *one* thing I’d like to say to these people: *Have you seen the alternative?*


PossumAttack

Everyone has, anyone supporting Biden has just pretty easily concluded that it’s better than openly allowing corporate interests to own our lives *even more* and stomping out everyone’s autonomy in the name of religious lunacy.


ResponsibilityAlone

Those upvotes can't not be bots. No way real people just go there like "Oh look at this photo of Trump with some goofy caption. This made my day!" Like how can you be so obsessed with someone. It's a sub for pics not political circle jerk. They should really just shut up and vote for whomever they want. Not a Trump fan myself but Reddit's obsession with him is annoying. That's why you don't join big subs. They usually end up becoming this.


BlackCommissar

He really did?


spash_bazbo69

Is this not a pic? Is he not a child rapist?


grizznuggets

As if this sub isn’t also a political circlejerk


THE_AbsRadiance

nah, more representation from both sides, gladly this one hasn’t been taken over yet


grizznuggets

That must be why pretty much every comment agrees with OP and any comments that disagree are downvoted. Yes, very balanced dialogue.


THE_AbsRadiance

yea, because this is a place to complain about subs that fell off, and we can all basically agree which subs fell off despite political orientation, this isn’t a political circlejerk, it’s just a general circlejerk, which is slightly better.


Alpham3000

I kinda do see your point to an extent. But I would be lying if I said that majority of the comments are a bit more right leaning. It’s not as representative of both sides as one would hope. We should honest just leave politics out of everything and only have it in politics related subs cause otherwise we get conversations like this.


THE_AbsRadiance

that’s just statistics, there’s far more left wing cesspools on reddit, therefore there’s a lot more people unsubbing from left wing cesspools, therefore more right leaning people post and interact with this sub, meaning there’s more right leaning interactions. but it really is just “right wing post -> right wing comments” “left wing post -> left wing comments” for the most part


grizznuggets

I meant in terms of political ideology. I never see people unsubbing because a sub made fun of Biden, but people unsub because Trump was mocked almost daily. A similar thing happens whenever someone posts about trans issues; the majority of the comments tend to lean towards transphobia and pro-trans comments tend to get heavily downvoted. Point being, this sub has a very clear political bias and it would be foolish to pretend otherwise.


THE_AbsRadiance

there’s plenty of people on here unsubbing because of far right ideology. making fun of trump simply happens a fuck ton on reddit, so justunsubbed posts containing that subject matter happen a ton. comments follow the post, if the post is “unsubbed cause was taken over by trans people” then there’s gonna be a lot of people saying “yeah that happens a lot” but if you go to one of the posts saying “just unsubbed cause of rampant transphobia” all the comments say “yeah the right wing sucks”, you’re just interacting with the wrong posts. and no, it doesn’t truly have clear political bias, you just get served with that cause that’s what you interact with or smth (i’m not gonna pretend i know how the reddit algorithm works)


grizznuggets

Agree to disagree I guess, but I know what I’m observing.


THE_AbsRadiance

and that’s why human observation is all but disregarded in the scientific fields.


brdlee

Now you support general scientific consensus?


all-the-mights

👍 okay.
