    I was using reddit less and less, but when the furry subreddits made their way into /r/popular and /r/all that was it for toilet browsing/squat’n’surfing… Seeing a sign for ‘werewolf breeding zone’ was enough for me.

      I’ve never cared for furry stuff, but hell, I probably would’ve stayed if I’d gotten anything nearly as hilarious as “werewolf breeding zone” instead of all the religious and techbro crap I was getting through their ads.

        Yes! What was up with that Jesus ad, ad nauseum? Weird and also just boring.

          I’ve been wondering that too, since I found the campaign to pester my kids constantly. Tried to clean their browser history and change the algorithm but it keeps popping up.

          Basically it’s a disgusting attempt to brainwash kids.

          From Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/He_Gets_Us

          The campaign primarily targets younger demographics and religious skeptics

          He Gets Us has faced criticism over the extensive spending by the campaign, its donors’ support of anti-abortion and anti-LGBT groups, and disputes over claims that the campaign is apolitical.

          most of the individual donors who provided the money have chosen to remain anonymous.

            Maybe ‘he gets us’ is not the best thing for religions to be saying to kids considering all the sexual abuse scandals…

      I now have the mental image of Spez frantically struggling to explain to advertisers why their posts were appearing besides werewolf breeding zone memes. So thanks for that.
