It is not so much about the language but the mindset

over here, we have people who say 7th oct incident never existed, laugh at primary school kids casualty at kota Kinabalu earthquake, and say massacre didn’t have enough people died. And that calling all these out is considered as virtual signaling.

Or are all these rampant in Reddit also?
Dunno ah..never go Reddit often, TS say then go look look see see..

But EDMW kinder in some ways and not so pretentious..

On Reddit you are interacting with either a bot or a smart alec / fake intellectual.

EDMW can be caustic and nonsensical sometimes but it will always be OG and authentic.

It is a shame that we have to communicate in Engrish, and not our mother tongues like Hokkien, Hakka, Cantonese, Teochew, Hainanese...

But whether is it Reddit and EDMW, the Engrish all cannot make it, limited by just youtube, PAP style Engrish, but everyone thinks very highly of their powderful Engrish...

Han see wa eng hokkien, wa eh abang ga wa eh thambi buay hiow kua leh.



Hi kong ngai kong hakka fa, ngi voi thiang mo?

Hair, ngai hair hakka ngin. Dai Boh hak :D

Edit: I can't find a better way to pronounce "hair" without it turning into an actual English word :ROFLMAO:

Just came back from Reddit browsing. How can anyone say that EDMW is toxic and misogynistic? Reddit is the pits. 5mins of it and I felt that a whole day of haze has been dumped on me. That place is THE slash and burn.

the singapore subs is manned by c3c@ mods, any mention of them will lead to a perm ban

Many snowflakes there. Add in more from overseas and it becomes a cesspool of woke left lunatics, that will down vote you to oblivion.

I think r/singapore, r/asksingapore and r/singaporeraw better

Try having a normal discussion on EDMW or ask a question and 50% of the replies are shitposts

Reddit is not without its flaws but EDMW is like zombified cesspool. For e.g ppl can start a thread posting a fake AI image of a celebrity whatever and ppl can pretend having a normal conversation or having fun criticizing the subject. Fake news is allowed here and you can post just about anything quite literally. Truly for the low propensity crowd. :s13:

Reddit is woke. I recently commented "white parenting" on a gaming subreddit comment and the OP of the comment called me a lacist.

:o :o :o

And you think here is any different or more accommodating? Go start a thread discussing religion or news regarding religion and see how it ends. Even if its calm, intellectual, or well-intentioned discussion quoting verses from scripture ad-verbatim, usually ends with moderators locking or deleting it quickly. HWZ is bounded by local laws governing social cohesion, race, and religion that are among the strictest in the world with zero tolerance. Reddit is hosted in the US and not bounded by such laws and protected by their first amendment. Rules are decentralized and context based. Different subreddits have different rules and none of the shenanigans. :s13:

Fake Sinkies, glass hearts, mob mentality in downvotes, and deletion of post by mods, especially in so-called “Singapore” sub-reddits.

But other IT and systems related sub not so bad. Just be warned.

Also, YMMV.
