6. Any sub that ends in "InAction" is probably going to be full of idiots.

Although since 2XC went default it wouldn't surprise me to find this post (upvoted) there either.

i have plenty of female friends. none of them have been raped. but when this discussion comes around, feminists freely throw out crazy numbers like "1 in 4 women"


Two highly dubious claims and a strawman in a single sentence is impressive. I highly doubt he has plenty of female friends (Gotta stay out of that friendzone), and if he does, I can almost guarantee at least one of them has been raped. She's just not going to volunteer that information to a misogynistic asshole that might use the information against her in the future. Or one of them has told him and he's straight up lying.

Given the general nature of Reddit, that guy is probably like nineteen, has a girlfriend that doesn't know she's his girlfriend, and hangs out on /r/TheRedPill.

Edit: Just checked. He's an /r/videos, /r/worldnews, and /r/funny troll. Three of the worst default subs. All he needed was /r/adviceanimals to be involved in all the openly misogynistic and racist default subs at once.
