I’d venture to say that we all have things we’d like to see go away, right?
Darn right! It’s just the way it goes.
And we’re about to hear from some folks who have some pretty strong opinions.
What popular things do you wish would go away?
Here’s what AskReddit users had to say about this.
1. We need more.
“Two Party goverment/states.
In the UK, it’s Conservatives and Labour, with sometimes other parties getting some seats in Parliament.
Obviously in the US, it’s Republicans and Democrats.”
2. Seriously.
“Remaking hit movies and TV shows.
Tell a new story. JFC.”
3. Out of control.
“Gender reveal parties.
They’re out of hand.”
4. Hustlin’.
“Hustle culture and the weird thing of “you must get a well paying job and move out and go to university as soon as possible or else you’re a failure”.”
5. Bingo!
“Being mad at someone for not holding your exact same beliefs on all issues. We need nuance people, in all things.
The more we fight and disagree in a h**eful manner the more those at the top control us.”
6. Is it a bad thing?
“The business model of social media and online advertising.
I don’t see it ever really changing but its slowly destroying our society.”
7. Gone too far.
“Tiktok.
It’s gone from a harmless social media app to actually persuading kids to commit crimes and do other really dangerous things like self harm.”
8. I’m in charge.
“The whole “alpha male” thing.
You’re not impressing anyone with your “dominant male status,” Cody, you’re just a d**k.”
9. American office culture.
“The 5-day, work at the office, business casual that includes a tie for some f**king reason, guilt you out of vacation or sick leave BULLS**T American office culture.
F**k you, pay them more and let them work from home. There is no reason for 90% of America’s workforce to be in some cubicle farm contributing to global warming and some DeVry cert holding a**wipes’ ego.”
10. What’s this email thing?
“Senior citizens in politics.
It horrifies me that people who don’t know how to send an e-mail and won’t live long enough to see the repercussions of their actions are trusted to decide the fate of the nation.”
11. You’re so vain.
“Giving homeless and poor people money and things just so you can record it on camera. Same goes with those who record big tips they give to waitresses and fast food workers just to videotape their reaction.
No, it’s not generosity, it’s vanity. If it was about generosity, you wouldn’t want to record it and put it on your social media.”
12. We all make mistakes.
“Cancelling people for things they said 20 years ago. People grow and change.
If someone is saying the exact same things in the present as back then, then go ahead and cancel them.
If they have learned, then let them be.”
13. Amen.
“The notion of the Christian Right.
Everything they do is so hypocritical.
Jesus would weep hearing about what they do in his name.”
14. I agree with this.
“Your s**uality being your whole identity.
It can be your whole identity if you want it to. But here’s the thing: nobody else cares. Nobody else is obligated to care.
If I’m not f**king someone, I don’t care who they f**k, or who they want to f**k, or who they sometimes f**k.
Keep it in your pants and we don’t have to discuss it.”
Now it’s your turn!

Thanks a million!
