I can't believe how pro-reddit sentiment is. It's like a totally different reality.

And fake posts. They're getting even worse, and the users more gullible.

I read a BORU post the other day about a girl whose gamer boyfriend was trying to get her to have sex with him while his mic was still on. In the update she said she found his old 4chan account from years ago where he had saved a post about getting a partner to "perform" on the mic for the guy's friends. 4chan doesn't have accounts, she was called out on this, then edited her post to say she didn't really know how 4chan works (no duh) but it was in fact some link aggregation site of 4chan exclusively where you can save posts. Instead of calling out her lack of credibility, most users in the BORU thread were doubling down on believing her.
