yeah plus Predator is an entire race/culture of interstellar big game hunters, and they have been known to display honor. So if that girl is some native american hunter badass, Predator may recognize this.

I don't imagine that an interstellar being is going to have qualms about human gender norms
Goddamn I hate Reddit.

You're the one with the contrarian takes, you'd farm lots of karma there if you can keep a lid on your "old man yelling at the kids on his lawn" tendencies

Then you can turn around and sell the reddit account on the gray web so it can be used to propagate misinformation such as not liking predator movies

At no point does that alter the damage that Reddit has done.

It's not even the first site like that

I lay all of at the feet of Richard Kyanka, but he's dead so I guess Wil Wheaton is to blame

oh yes, reddit is certainly a lot larger than any of the previous versions and there's been some kind of weird exponential effect as time has drudged on

like the whole internet is building to a critical mass of stupidity and will reach stupidity fusion

Thx for acknowledging that. I don't believe it's a phenomenon unique to reddit either.

In my video game subs tho there is this very cringy echo chamber effect I noticed even about generally subjective and apolitical topics or narrative points. And it makes me wonder if the vast majority of humans actually have any free will at all. It's just much more obvious on certain platforms than others. Reddit is by far not the worst like certain disqus communities. However it can be pretty bad. I still occasionally stumble on original thought. It's so rare now. Yikes. I'm probably an AI [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I don't, nor do I know anyone who frequents reddit.

their interface is unintuitive and cumbersome, makes no sense.

I have no idea how reddit got to be popular, other than the fact that the first few years the reddit devs made millions of bots to look like postings, and then google made them the "always #3-5" search results

reddit is useless and stupid unless you're a data miner
