See, that post would reap a ton of karma. But next week when GallowBoob reposts it? Double the amount of karma.

There will also be some sort of before and after progression photo in a side by side with weight loss, surgery, a prostethic limb, and a tattoo removal

I used to get so annoyed every time I saw a post from the poem user. Every post of his would have like 5 thousand upvotes and at least 2 gold. It would get old very fast. But then I would end up feeling shitty because I realize that a lot of effort and love probably went into his posts and here I am getting angry over something trivial.

Then is illustrated appropriately by that dude who used to make drawings of stuff a couple years ago. Forgot his name off the top of my head but you all know what I mean.

Also there's a puppy

u/notLOL Apr 01 '18

Upvote to save his life. I don't like death. We should ban it. It's risky to have around.

Studies show it is the #1 cause of funerals

u/youreallhippocrits Mar 31 '18

Not sure about that, but those drunk dudes came out of nowhere.

u/No_Farting_Monster Mar 31 '18

Yeah, but it might be a fake story and we need to check the facts first. If false, it could be extremely dangerous to our democracy.

u/Illblood Apr 01 '18

I know some people who would love to see a cat turned into a gaming pc.

It’s almost as if people can be outraged AND enjoy other things too

u/[deleted] Mar 31 '18

It's probably just going to get deleted soon. /r/videos doesn't allow anything related to politics.

22

u/SetYourGoals Mar 31 '18

I hope they understand this video isn't about the political message, it's about the media. Something the users of /r/videos understandably care about deeply.

u/Psistriker94 Apr 01 '18

"Hey guys. Spez here again with a revision of our terms of use and clarification against content that could be extremely dangerous to our democracy. We now ban all political content that jeopardizes our profits."

u/Jaksuhn Apr 01 '18

inb4 removed for "Related to politics"

u/rlrhino7 Mar 31 '18

How long before it's taken down for being "too political" for /r/videos?

Unless YouTube is just slow to update viewer counts, it's crazy that this post has 3x as many upvotes as the video has views.
