Of course. New Reddit has been a ridiculous travesty since the start, even with continued development and refinement. There are so many stupid and annoying things about it. It also has a lot of performance problems compared to the old UIs - not just slowness, but issues like the video player crashing or just stopping, and it doesn't do that in old reddit. Also they try to restrict you and guide you to the app in ways that old reddit does not - saying a post is for mature audiences and you have to use the app, for instance. But then you can view it on old reddit with no problem.

A few things wrong with this. One, it's not "fit in" as much as "don't be discriminated against and abused". Then, also it's not clear why having rainbow hair and glasses challenges the "core values and beliefs" of this generic mob. And also, I don't think the ratio is quite right. Then there's the issue that in reality it's more like conservatives are "hey change your core values and beliefs or we want to murder you".

The peak of popularity was the early to mid 2000s, so 15-20 years ago.

I finally stopped getting carded a few years ago (I'm 45). Now cashiers will just enter a random date... one person chose to put my birthdate as 1962.

Somebody told me they wished they were born earlier so they could have been an emo kid.

I hate the mofos who do that.

Can't even call it capitalism most of the time, just "liberals" which is confusing in US political terms.

What’s the actual problem then? You can’t name it either? Anyway, I’m not sure how you got from my post that I think the only issue with the US is this one specific degenerate.

Eventually the discussion came around to one basic question: Is Trump a reliable ally?

Why would anyone be wondering that? Of course he is not. Republicans and especially Tr*mp have made their views on Ukraine well known for quite a while now. This can't realistically be a surprise to anyone.

It’s weird how we can try to explain this to people for months straight and they’re still posting stupid memes about it.
