A lot of division over the validity of this. A lot of strife over the "nothingeverhappens"ism of Lemmy. To weigh in on this as objectively as I possibly can, this reads like absolute bullshit, and it's the first time I've seen something so absurdly dumb on Lemmy that I've witnessed mention of people clapping, Albert Einstein, and r/nothingeverhappens.

There are degrees of these things. r/nothingeverhappens exists for people who think a person's story about their toddler saying something really clever is fake, or senselessly believe that some mundane or humorous encounter could not possibly be real.

r/thathappened is for people who claim their father went nearly twice the speed limit, got pulled over by police, told them he was on a race to reach Papa's Pizza, and was promptly forgiven and escorted by them at a dangerous speed to overtake another vehicle and get him there first.

The waters on reddit were muddied a very long time ago.

It's a slippery slope, folks.
