Need to let loose a primal scream without collecting footnotes first? Have a sneer percolating in your system but not enough time/energy to make a whole post about it? Go forth and be mid: Welcome to the Stubsack, your first port of call for learning fresh Awful youāll near-instantly regret.
Any awful.systems sub may be subsneered in this subthread, techtakes or no.

The post Xitter web has spawned soo many āesotericā right wing freaks, but thereās no appropriate sneer-space for them.

Theyāre inescapable at this point, yet I donāt see them mocked (as much as they should be)

Edit bored on a train so I did the math, in the comment thread, this user has made 30% of the comments by count and 20% by āvolumeā (basically number of bytes in the plaintext).
