Nearly every post is some confidently titled post of how FSU got screwed, or anyone who disagrees is a sec shill and a moron. Like I get being upset. But for a community that large it's an absolute embarrassment how subjectively idiotic it's been.

Lots of people are tired of Alabama and its showing.

They don't provide any point. It's a mob of people saying how Alabama and ESPN is a joke. Nothing else being said matters. It's pretty funny

My favorite thing that's been universally said by the people who believe FSU was cheated is something along the lines of:

"Alabama is the better team, but FSU is more deserving"

Lmao, isn't the idea to have the four best teams?

It's one thing when it's some fan, but when it's a credible source with a large following, then it shows it's more of an Alabama fatigue cry.

Reddit, as a whole, suffers from severe mental illness

ETA: *what's left of Reddit

Absolutely…. That hate has been going on for a very long time. Started back in 1925 till the present

Remember when Herb Winches had a come apart in 1977 on tv when Bama beat the hell outta OSU in the Sugar Bowl and they gave it to ND. Went to that game with my parents and the 78,79 SB’s

My father till the day he died was still pissed about the 1966 screwing Bama got when ND & MSU split the title. So the hates been there awhile for Bama.

There's some good subreddits out there. Usually involving more esoteric subjects for the most part

Reddit is the biggest online space for mob justice and witch hunts. Every now and then you run into a few level headed posts on controversial topics over there (not just this one or even that sub) but you are right for the most part. In the thread about Saban getting his cell doxxed there were some normal people. Fortunately Reddit is not a representation of the average person.

A lot of them like to mention the ACC vs SEC record this season. They always fail to actually go in depth on all of those games though, such as some of those losses being South Carolina, Vandy, and Florida.

I think 2012 was the last time that Reddit was a net positive. It seems like it becomes more of an echo chamber on a yearly basis. At least on most of the subs with a large user base.

Reddit in general is the biggest cesspool of mob mentality.

The very structure, the very foundation of it is to hide minority and dissenting viewpoints.

And it's absolutely dominated by liberal socialists and communists.

Reddit is terrible. I have several 2nd gen dodge chargers, one a 69 charger 500 that I am slowly bringing back. I needed a few parts so I went in there showed a pic and asked if anyone had a few specific parts to sell mainly a rust free K member. One guy said it isn't a charger at all since it had headlights and the beating I took on there from those idiots commenced. Below is the pic I shared. Those people in all the r/ threads are complete mob dumbasses.

Bama didn't make the playoffs last year. People thought the "decline" was FINALLY here.

Then Alabama wins the SEC and has a good shot at yet another NC.

It broke them.

Bama Derangement Syndrome is real.

And as in many online message boards it’s only gotten worse and worse through the years.

Only some of the smaller subs are decent. Most of the larger ones (including r/cfb) are trash. Lots of circle jerking to get fake internet points (karma) and many of the mods/admins are massive power trippers

The funny thing is...even if Alabama wins both games and the championship, the same folks will say Alabama didn't belong...

Just like many Ohio State fans said after the 2018 championship game that we pulled out against Georgia.

This is exactly what all of this hatred is about. Most could care less about fsu.

Reddit is really bad. It's full of young kids who don't have a clue about what their talking about. Have you seen the world news section? You'd think Nazi Germany won WW2 by how the youth and democrats talk on that sub. It's disgusting and shameful. You can't have a civil discussion on that site anymore.
