Actually, it's stupider, the original meth subreddit made rules against posting images of drug use because reddit admins were breathing down their necks, some of the userbase deemed that censorship to be communist because something something 1984. Except, obviously, it was done because advertisers don't want to advertise next to drug use. So it's literally classic Americans calling the negative consequences of capitalism communism

Everything conservatives don't like is "communism".
That makes more sense.
How do you know this drama? Like my head is also full of useless internet drama, but this specific drama I feel like requires some origination explanation.
Well, if you browse any of the drug related subreddits on reddit you can't really miss it. Heck, I browse almost only /r/steroids and I knew about it
Except, obviously, it was done because advertisers don't want to advertise next to drug use.
Isn't that what the "quarantined subreddit" feature was added for? Advertisers that don't want their ad next to a picture of meth use most likely don't want their ads in a methamphetamine subreddit in general
There really is a theme to meth use over the years, isn't there.
Gonna start calling it fascidust
well i mean, the actual nazis used it quite a bit…
I think that's what they were getting at
Didn't the nazis not only use it, but also invent it?
no, that was a japanese chemist
You got his number?
yeah it’s 867-5309
Jen Hai.
He moved his office to Germany. The number is 99-999-9999
That's just a common misconception amongst raccoons.
He was actually, translated to english, saying "No no...no no no....no no no no......" upon seeing what was happening in Auschwitz.
I mean, how else are you going to try and march across the damn Soviet Union? That place was fucking ginormous.
Yeah and it's not even a stims thing. I've seen progressives down Adderall between shots and do coke. But the one meth user I've known was a queer republican who tried to lie her way into relationships with people.
No, not "too left wing", just not far right enough for them. The US left wing is the equivalent to right of center in actual developed countries, to put that in to perspective. In other words, the crazy people weren't crazy enough for the ultra crazies.
Jokes aside, you'll find several instances of "normal community" having a "right wing normal community" spin off, it happened in online chat channels, then in forums, now Reddit.
The right's ideology is fundamentally unfit for harmonic co-existing with everybody else, so it's no surprise they always need to isolate themselves in a bunker.
It turns out, when you kick people out of a community for being toxic, racist, or otherwise counterproductive to maintaining a community... they go form a right wing spinoff of that community. I feel like it says a lot that when you kick people out for traits that aren't "being right wing", they form communities around that shared identity.

Like how the Donald Duck subreddit got a spinoff called The_Donald
Then one of them inevitably opens up a place like this, looking more or less like this....
Lemmy will never truly be mainstream until we can have active communities this granular
Music To Meth To <3
YES SIR I WILL DO WHAT YOU TELL ME
(m)Ugh!
THANK GOD.
All the merh boards are just too political now.
lol. let's hope lemmy never becomes truly mainstream then.
I have a pet theory that amphetamines are inherently fascist. I'd be surprised if the "normal" meth sub is commie, but knowing what chuds consider communist, it's not surprising that they'd make an even more hard-line sub.
“Amphetamines are inherently fascist”???
What does that even mean?
When you use them they put you in a fascist mental state.
Amphetamine and dextroamphetamine combination is used to treat attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy (uncontrollable desire for sleep or sudden attacks of deep sleep). These two medicines belong to the group of medicines called central nervous system (CNS) stimulants.
I mean, I had (prescribed) adderall for a few months that had me borderline tweaky at my given dosage, but I still remained decidedly not right wing/fascist.
I think smoking meth is a little harder of a deal. Mostly a joke more than anything.
Maybe you would've been even lefter by now!
Hey, Adderall isn't like that at least for people with adhd
I never thought about it but I had a friend many years back that went on a several months long crystal meth and heroin bender, fell into deep psychosis, was hospitalized, and got clean after a while. He never went back to "normal" and remained much, much more conservative, right wing, and libertarian than he was before he went on the bender. Before that he was basically a militant anarchist.
Fetterman became conservative after his stroke, too.
I think it may be possible to damage the brain in a way that makes empathy harder.
