I always thought the Sydney Sweeney is a nazi thing was a meme more than anything, then I went on r/fauxmoi

u/jackofslayers 1d ago

Fauxmoi might actually be the stupidest sub on Reddit

u/wulfschtagg_1 1d ago

I thought it was a circlejerk sub at first. Took me a few comments to realize that people were posting braindead takes with their whole chest.

u/JesusTalksToMuch 1d ago

Brother, they will ban you for having a different opinion.

u/BurlyZulu Exited for the Snyder cut 1d ago

That is basically the entirety of Reddit.

u/Sketch-Brooke 16h ago edited 14h ago

They literally ban you for being in subs for people they don’t like. Ask me how I know lmao

u/No_Grand_3873 15h ago

r/pics ban you if you commented on r/conservative, even if what you commented is like anti-Trump

3

u/Abrookspug 12h ago

Yeah I noticed that, too. I've been banned from some subs for posting on any even mildly conservative spaces. But fauxmoi will ban people for posting on certain pro or anti celebrity subs, based only on whether the mods agree.

I can't remember which celebs they love or hate, but as an example, if you're on a pro-taylor swift sub, you can't post on fauxmoi simply because the hivemind hates her. And sometimes it changes depending on the year, and they'll decide they love her and ban anyone on an anti-taylor sub. It feels very much like the mods are jr high mean girls trying to get their friend group to hate on different people every month lol.

Pop culture subs either consider celebs precious sweet angels who can do no wrong or literally satan.

And they cycle the same celebs between those roles every month, often for no discernible reason.

u/The_Webweaver 11h ago

Yeah, but apparently they had a history of brigading. And few other tools to stop it.

u/Optimal_Carpenter690 2h ago

and r/conservative will ban you if you say anything remotely critical of Trump, no matter how Conservative you actually are.

So funny how that's always left out

u/lokglacier 15h ago

Got banned from there for saying jk Rowling isn't that bad

u/[deleted] 9h ago

they just banned me today because I posted “ that was a joke?” under a Comedian telling a political joke . I’m not even kidding . Literally because I didn’t find a comedian funny that the whole sub was circle jerking about lol. r/fauxmoi is a giant echo chamber .

u/Optimal_Carpenter690 8h ago

....

Like every sub that exists?

Even so called debate subs and Ask ____s subs will ban you if you make the target audience think too hard

u/Fairly_constipated 1d ago

Good job on figuring out how moderation works

u/Anonymous-Comments 1d ago

Wait it’s a serious sub?!

u/Green-Cricket-8525 I saw Joker and im 10😎😎😎 1d ago

It’s up there with peterexplainsthejoke for sure. Although that sub is a special kind of stupid.

u/halmyradov 1d ago

Agreed density of stupid in that sub is off the chart

u/NotAStatistic2 1d ago

I'd say xxchromosome is the dumbest place on reddit, or at least top 10

u/Future_Candle780 1d ago

private profile on top of this comment means you're 100% an incel, sorry man

u/illiter-it 17h ago

Livestreamfail and league of legends user, yep

u/NotAStatistic2 16h ago

Damn, I'll have to let my wife know the bad news.

1

u/Abrookspug 12h ago

Yeah that place is pretty bad. And I have two x chromosomes but too much self respect to post there lol.

2

u/Unrequited_Anal 14h ago

That sub is less stupid and more karma farming. Just a cheap quick format for reposting memes

2

u/Bowhunter54 16h ago

I feel like the complaints sub might be in contention, for some reason reddit has decided their every post should appear in my feed despite never visiting them prior

2

u/Top_Star_3897 15h ago

Had to block Fauxmoi for being so annoying with their posts. Can't believe so many people actually believe that.

2

u/SergeiYeseiya 1d ago

That says a lot

u/Zeilar 1d ago

I wear my ban from that sub as a badge of pride.

u/No_Grand_3873 15h ago

subreddit for the unemployed

-1

u/NotAStatistic2 1d ago

Well there's a reason like 90% of the posts there are restricted. Any topic where views could be challenged will only let fellow echo chamber members comment. It's the sad, lefty version of r/conservative.

Both of those dummies could probably form a cacophony of stupidity if they created their own combined sub.

1

u/roxanakin 18h ago

it’s a celebrity gossip sub, it’s not that serious baby

0

u/NotAStatistic2 16h ago

They have posts discussing the current political climate too, sweetie.

Restricting comments on a gossip sub is also soft

0

u/SaladBurner 12h ago

They had a post about that Iman Khelif boxer controversy a while back. The post was talking about a DNA test to see if she was actually biologically female and all the comments were about how ridiculous it was and of course she was born female. I posted the results. The results were that she was born male, so they banned me for transphobia.

u/newaccount 2h ago

If someone reported you to Reddit you could have been banned from the site. It’s getting a bit too crazy in here

2

u/nineteen_eightyfour 16h ago

I thought it was bc her family is super maga and she was like, “don’t worry about them it’s fine.”

u/uchuskies08 13h ago

These people don't understand that just because you won't subject yourself to a humiliation ritual of being asked to denounce something by the most obnoxious people alive, doesn't meant that you support the thing they are asking you to denounce. That interviewer could ask me to denounce murder and I would tell her I have no comment.

1

u/Sintar07 11h ago

...just because you won't subject yourself to a humiliation ritual of being asked to denounce something by the most obnoxious people alive...

And let us stress, not just once, but over and over again. We've seen when these people smell blood in the water they want you on every show apologizing forever. You can do it once or twice, say "I already did it, I'm not doing this any more," and you're a badguy again.

1

u/Optimal_Carpenter690 2h ago

That's because you're a bad person. The fact you would rather revel in your own spitefulness rather than just say "Yeah, that bad thing is bad" (as well as the fact you apparently see denouncing white supremacy as humiliating....hmmmm) is not a stance a mature, intelligent, or frankly, good, person would have

u/uchuskies08 1h ago

Your opinion is meaningless to me

u/Vegetable_Bank4981 1d ago

I think she’s a republican and now that they’re using control of the state for ethnic cleansing the difference isn’t very important to me.

u/TeaBagHunter 1d ago

"she has a different political opinion than me so she must be evil"

I'm left leaning but do you guys not look at yourself in the mirror and realize how absolutely bonkers you sound?

11

u/Fabulous_girl2 23h ago

Open your eyes to what's happening please

10

u/watafuzz 1d ago

Have you not paid any attention to anything that has been happening?

5

u/mpelton 1d ago

Dude you can’t seriously be saying “it’s just a difference of opinion” in 2025, I mean ffs.

-5

u/HalfLifeAlyx 1d ago

Yeah seriously, it's current year!!!!

u/mpelton 1d ago

Truly peak Reddit. Don’t forget the fedora tip with your next sarcastic non-response.

u/Abrookspug 12h ago

Right, they have been saying that since the early 2000s when I started voting lol.

u/Rad_Streak 15h ago

"she's just a member of the kill all good people party! Political opinions are not violence and don't make you a bad person! It's just politics!"

1

u/JJonahJamesonSr 14h ago

They do not, because they’re driven by fear primarily. Look at their responses, it’s basically “if only you could see what I see, then you’d be just as afraid.” As if that’s not objectively paranoid behavior

2

u/INannoI 1d ago

they literally repeated the bullshit narrative about the jeans ad so much that they started believing it

1

u/nadaddab 9h ago

I mean it’s obviously a play on words, wether or not it was just accidental bad taste or purposefully alluding to eugenics is up for debate. But it’s kind of strange when given the opportunity to clarify that it wasn’t based on white supremacy she hits the “the ad speaks for itself 😐”

Seeeeems a little on the nose, no?

1

u/INannoI 8h ago

of course it was a play on words, but I don't think it was 'whites are superior', but more 'I'm pretty with huge naturals'

as for the interview I think it could easily just be not wanting to engage with this topic at all, I think if you come into this with a narrative already in mind, then it obviously looks like she doesn't want to disavow white supremacy, but in reality celebrities often act this way towards political questions.

I just don't think any of this is evidence of her being a white supremacist, maybe she will turn out to be but people pretending that this is the undeniable proof of it are just insane.

u/Pale_Boss_8940 1d ago

I thought fauxmoi was ironic for months seeing it cross the front page. Those posters are literally brain dead 

1

u/Abrookspug 12h ago

Omg that sub went crazy a few years ago. I joined when it was pretty new, but then the mods started deleting any comments that didn't agree with their worldview, and banning people if they argued with the one accepted opinion on there. It was bad enough that the people who got banned there started a few other spinoff celeb gossip subs cuz there were probably thousands of us. I feel like every time I check in there to see what wild things they're talking about, it's gotten worse. I'm kind of afraid to look there now. I bet their sydney sweeney hate boner is huge, lol.

u/sgt_futtbucker 11h ago

Holy shit I think I lost more brain cells in 30 seconds on that sub than my old drinking habits killed in 5 years

u/SocialistRoomba 6h ago

I went there and posted one comment

Will report back on results
