Seeing the same old predictable jokes and pun threads as top comments with thousands of upvotes in serious posts was one of my least favourite things about Reddit.

Any post related to WWII - Top comment “I did Nazi that coming!” 5000 upvotes

The circle jerk was truly shit.

Maybe it’s different in your area. Where I live the local fishing spot is nearly all men.

Buy an extra rod and a headphone splitter :p

Oh OK. I’ve never watched it so that’s why I didn’t understand.

4. 11% more women voted than men, if they all voted democrat, they would have won easily.

You could argue that a proportion of these women are brainwashed or whatever else but the simple fact of the matter is that not enough of them felt engaged with democratic policies.

What’s the implication? Am I naïve? I just thought it was traditionally a man’s hobby with little interest from women, just as most men mostly aren’t very interested in crochet.

I like fishing, I just think it’s quite unpopular with women.

As long as it’s not fishing haha

I’d suggest that he’s at least average intelligence.

I think people are struggling to accept that I can dislike someone, or disagree with their choices without thinking they’re stupid.

I agree that it could just be a poor choice of words and it could just be an insult, if you think he’s evil, a cunt or whatever else say that instead though.

I’m getting tired of the comments that imply not stupid = smart.

I understand that intelligence is on a scale and that is not a black and white issue. I also understand that wealth ≠ intelligence, however in this case I do believe that he has at least average intelligence.

This is the last “Elon Musk is not a genius” type comment that I’m replying too, I’ve said all I have to say on the matter.

I think a lot of people hate Musk (understandably) so they call him stupid to make themselves feel better with disregard to the meaning of the word.

If you’re referring to Twitter, I’ve already stated that I think he intentionally wanted to derail it.

I agree. Most of the replies here imply that I must think he’s a genius, as if people can only either be stupid or a genius.

I do not think he’s a genius, I do think that he knows what he’s doing.

I’ve already said elsewhere in the thread that I’m not claiming that he’s some sort of 200 level IQ genius. I’m saying he’s not stupid.

Once again this is an opinion and you’re fully entitled to that. But I think what you really mean is “I think he’s stupid for what he’s trying to be”.

I’m not claiming he’s a genius. Just saying he’s not stupid.

The image you shared doesn’t actually prove anything, it’s a difference of opinion unless you can source what he actually said. And at the end of the day, you don’t need to be a bean expert to run a successful baked bean company, you just need to know how to hire bean experts.

I just checked it out, very boring /s

I judge people for being gate keepers of music, I used to be one and no one likes it. People have different tastes and it’s horses for courses.

They’ve probably just never been in the correct head space to listen to it because they’ve been conditioned to listen to mind numbing pop chart shite.

What’s your favourite band?
