The site is filled with hate. Messages saying "kill all the Police" are not uncommon. I reported them to Imgur and nothing happen. It is cesspit congregating sad individuals manipulated by certain interest groups.
IMGUR might be the most toxic community I've ever seen. It is run by a group of lunatic leftists who will ban anyone who even remotely wavers from towing their political agenda. If you want a peek behind the scenes of Antifa's ideology and network, this is it. They call anyone and everyone they don't agree with fascists and nazis. Their power users, who are all linked up to a discord server which includes the mods and head of community routinely threaten violence and spin up mobs to attack other users.
I set up an account and posted the below picture, which was enough to get the account banned (irony intended).
One can only hope that the corporate advertisers wise up and recognize that they are associating their brands with a hate site.
It's a cesspool of people that love to attack one another and spread hateful comments. If you are too old, a different skin color, or a woman, I would avoid this place. It's got more hateful ideology than I've ever found anywhere outside of maybe Reddit.
On top of that, the mods let it happen and are on board with it. I pointed out that someone was being ageist and they could be fired for that in the real world, and they flagged my comment with a "warning" that it goes against their community standards. LOL what standards? These idiots need to take a long look in the mirror.
I commented on someone who posted that they don't know how to feel about trans women in women's sports. I commented but didn't say anything bad about trans people, i made a valid point. They threatened to suspend my account because it goes against their abusive, harassing, hateful, bullying, or discriminatory policy. Because I don't believe that a man should be allowed in a women's locker room and I can't get behind this movement that exposes young girls and women to rape and sexual assault they removed my comment and threatened to deactivate my account. They think they're these accepting and tolerant social justice warriors, yet if you don't agree with one of their ideologies you'll get banned.
Imgur does not even pretend anymore, at this point, to be unbiased or considerate of any even keeled or respectful perspectives. The bias is extremely apparent. In an age of extreme partisanship in all corners of the Internet, Imgur manages to do the impossible: it stands out. There really isn't another site that reaches this levels of blatant disregard for objectivity that the platform does. My words really don't matter, though: just look for yourself. Provoking anger, either amongst its supporters or detractors, seems to be the only goal. I suppose, somehow, that this emotional surge is supposed to be positive in the service of some greater cause, but a permanently angry and incensed population seems to be the opposite of helpful to me in attempting to solve the issues in the world, no matter what your perspective is. Imgur is what it tries so hard to tell you that it isn't: an angry, fuming monster spewing rage at the invisible "enemies" it claims to be fighting.
Imgur used to be great 10+ years ago. Now it's filled with obviously promoted propaganda and censorship. Well there was even censorship 10 years ago. I remember posting pictures and art and being made fun of by nasty toxic drones. I tried to post a picture about the millions of people starving in Yemen and it got down voted and censored. That is both disgusting and disturbing. These people have no souls. Total narcissistic psychos. It's still okay for hosting private images I guess, but for entertainment it's garbage.
Imgur is not a place for decent, original human beings who are creative and come up with their own stuff. If you look at anything art related that is posted, it gets immediate hate and has a bunch of 30 year old men with no jobs, live in their mom's basement and have cheeto dust all over their long, crusty beards saying how trash it is. If what I just said describes you, then congratulations! You should go to Imgur! But chances are, you are an actual intelligent human being if you understand how toxic it is and you are reading this. So yeah, would not recommend, -100/10
This is a hate site. There is no room for opinions that oppose the totalitarian regime. All shall be silenced who question the czars of Imgur. It is a left-wing police state. Don't use Imgur unless you are a far left-winger and just want to hear your own opinions spoon fed back to you in the great echo chamber. Imgur dulls the mind quickly as there is no real intellectual debate or conversation. Logical arguments back and forth do not exist. I'm guessing Imgur is probably fun for teenagers who think they are the next Che Guevara or something. Anyway, thank you for attending my TED talk.
Desperate women seeking whatever attention they can get through soft porn posts. Thirsty guys lavishing them with praise while hiding in their white armor and ganging up on anyone who disagrees. Its like Tinder. But the worst, by far is the terrible mods, they feed into this circlejerk while claiming they dont, they are outright hateful to anyone they dont approve of, and they will never change so long as the same desperate women and thirsty men keep giving them ad revenue.
They are legitimately terrible people filled with malice and greed and have no business trying to say they are good.
Wake up and take your daily lexapro with a glass of soy milk? Switch on the t.v to CNN? Wave goodbye to your wife's boyfriend when he leaves in the morning? Humourless and sensitive? Workshy and entitled? Attracted to anime children? Low testosterone?
You might be an imgur user.
These welfare children don't deserve a $#*!ty mud hole in the ground and they have a whole website to share their repulsive opinions. It USED to be memes, I'm talking 2015, but when the woke mind virus hit, it was ground zero for anonymous libtard freaks to start posting cringe.
