      Yeah, it’s an utterly deranged sub. But even the “normal” /r/wheeloftime sub has a ton of chuds whining about agendas and being censored, I think only /r/wot seems to be doing decent moderation of that shit (and /r/WoTshow seems to be going in the complete other direction of total adoration of the show).

      The “Capitalism is the permission to keep what you earn” is just… I don’t even see how you arrive at that, like don’t capitalism apologists explicitly recognize that CEOs deserve to take all the money because of how much “work” they do, meaning that regular workers DON’T actually get to keep all they earn? Just what is even going on here.

        Yeah I’ve been keeping tabs on that sub since it’s creation and it’s just so insane what will get said in that sub lol. Like at this point it’s basically exclusively reactionaries that post there, but a few weeks ago it was more of a mix of people. You’d get comments like “I’m not really a fan of how they changed Character’s story” and someone else would reply “It’s because woke feminists have hijacked our perfect story to make every male character unlikeable and stupid and frankly I’m expecting them to have Egwene be the Dragon and peg Rand while crushing his balls under 6 inch platform heels because thats what woke fascist feminists do. Also everything is gay and the characters should all be white or something.”

        As you said, truly a deranged community.

      At first glance, you feel that you’d really want to fuck that dragon, but when you think about the practical feasibility of actually doing it you quickly realize that it’s just a fantasy, an utterly impossible thing to achieve
