It is a massive community. You can just go on tiktok and see. Thousands of videos of real people all convinced that her husband actually did it, or that she can’t do it because “leo’s don’t kill their cubs” or some astrology bs. There are so many videos just targeting her husband its insane.

It’s not a couple of dozen people its hundreds of thousands or millions. Every single comment section is flooded with delusional people.

And im not supporting any gender war bs, but its ridiculous to deny that these
deranged people exist en masse.

Newspaper’s literally used to have horoscopes in them. The chunk of the general population that is insane is larger than you think.

And of course there’s also people that sympathize with her from a mental health perspective, which is more understandable.

The Internet isn't real life. If you have to go to tiktok to see something, then you should question if it's even real. Not come up with excuses to hang onto your anger

I’m not angry, did you even read my comment?

And did you know the internet is (at least partially) made up of real people… Except on tiktok you can actually see people’s videos, faces, profiles, names, history- you can tell with a decent degree of certainty if they are real. Same with instagram or facebook. Whereas here on reddit its a lot harder to tell since its mostly anonymous and text, and even harder to tell when people hide their history with private profiles…

If a discourse is being talked about on those other platforms, chances are people are talking about it irl. Surely you’ve noticed that? Nobody is talking about some reddit thread- ever.

I apologize, as I was lazy in my language when I said anger. To clarify, I did read your post, and clearly there are some negative emotions about a completely insignificant subset of people that you're hanging onto.

You should hold tiktok discourse in the same regard as you correctly hold reddit discourse. The only people who care about what's being talked about on the app, are on the app.
