So whenever something pops up there that doesn’t align with your values and interests, it sticks out like a silly misplaced emoji in a serious conversation. However, sometimes people run into things that they find are so far-removed from their casual online experience that they feel as if they just discovered a UFO artifact.

Turns out, one platform is particularly rich with these “surprises,” and I think you can already sense which one. (Hint: it belongs to Meta.) And there’s a whole subreddit to prove it! So to show you just how wild and unpredictable it can be, we invite you to take a look at what the 2.3 million members ofr/TerribleFacebookMemeshave been reposting. Oh, darn it, I gave it away. Anyway, here you go!

This Hurts

In a post titled, ‘Return to our Roots,’ the moderators of r/TerribleFacebookMemes said that “originally this subreddit was about Boomer memes,” but it went through quite an intense period.“It was about memes so painfully unfunny and out of touch that you would choke on a minion if you had to endure one more cry-laughing emoji on a sad post.“However, since the mods allowed members a lot of freedom, over time the community began to transform “into some kind of unholy abomination where … most of the posts … are just outright racism or transphobia.”

So the moderators had to intervene. “Somewhere in February, a smarter-than-average subscriber in modmail alerted us to the fact that Reddit has a terms of service and today we alert you to that too,” they explained in the post.“Subreddits can get banned and users can get sitewide suspensions for the [things] we feature here. Even if it is meant to laugh at. Even if we explicitly say that agreeing with the bad memes is forbidden.”

“For some bizarre, unfathomable reason, we do actually like this place,” the mods continued. “We want to keep it. We want to see it prosper. So we need to go back to our roots.“They announced that they’re working hard to eradicate any racism, transphobia, homophobia, and other issues you could’ve noticed there. Now, “all posts have to follow the site-wide rules.“This post was made in March, and it seems that they’re trying their best to live up to it, even if some relics from the past remain.

Of course, just like other generations, boomers are much more diverse than these memes suggest. Some of the life experiences, and thus worldviews, of a senior in Toronto likely bear little resemblance to one from Tokyo.After all, this generation has gone from using landlines to flip phones to smartphones and from typewriters to desktops to laptops.

Plus, they aren’t hostile towards younger generations ‘just because’ and aren’t criticizing them as much as it sometimes might seem in the media.Yes, 48 percent of boomersthinkthat a person’s chances of success depend more on their merit than factors that are outside of their control, but so do 44 percent of Gen X, 41 percent of millennials, and 40 percent of Gen Z. So there’s no big generational divide on this question.So maybe we should cut them some slack too? After all, every basket of apples can have a variety of aromas, flavors, and textures.
