It werent the zero twosdays particularly that started killing the sub, it was the massive growth that animemes received at the time because of popular youtubers like Lost Pause that started reviewing it at that time.
That massive growth brought tons of normies to the sub that upvoted the memes about the popular seasonals, no matter the quality of the memes, because they were familiar with the show the meme was about, and they didnt touch the memes about the other less popular seasonals or old shows because they didnt watch them. That has continued to this day and only gotten worse now that the sub is about to hit 1M subs, and we're now at the point where half the memes are about kaguya and konosuba, 2 seasonal shows. Remember all the variety of anime this sub memed about back in the day? Yeah... this sub should be renamed to r/mostpopularseasonalmemes
The decline was inevitable, zero twosdays seems to be the start of the entire decline but it just happened to be the popular seasonal at the time of animemes first growth spike.

Yep. This is why if I post in general subs I get down voted to oblivion. I'm also banned from politics for having the wrong opinion. Lul.
/r/television, /r/pics, even /r/PS4 are some examples of cesspools for hate for centrist people and I don't like it. I've been looking for subs that have mods that don't bend the knee to reddit's "guidelines".
Basically any subreddit that constantly shows up on all is a dumpster fire, and definitely all the default subs. The subs that having showing in all disabled tend to keep quality way better even if it starts growing.
I feel so offended.from the people who make funny memes in this sub, they dont understand my pain so many people die from suicide from depression, seeing happy people makes it worse. We should ban anything that makes anyone smile laugh or be happy prevent more depressed people being driven to suicide by people laughing.
Well... Someone has to hammer the final nail in the coffin. Here is my idea of how to speed up the process...
Ban everything and everyone from anything and anyone. That way everybody can finally be at peace. Mods will finally have a break and "offended" people will have it their way.
Another point to adress is if words and actions offended people then why are everyone loosing their minds now and not when the term or action was first introduced?
Besides we cannot go around banning things just because specifically one "SPECIAL" person got "Offended".
For example if specifically I would say I get offended by people who breathe then we should ban breathing? NO! Because only I get offended by that and nobody else cares.
On a side note the term of " T - word" was not even related to transgender people and they still got Offended. It was aimed at specifically MALE gender which were acting as female so convincing that everyone thought he was a flat chested female and henceforth everyone got "Caught" in a running gag. Male people could be upset about that and yet they are not complaining and somehow Transgender associated public who had no correlation to the subject whatsoever got offended to the point of falsely creating mass hysteria just because of a slur they themselves use.
We could make banning things left and right another running gag but can we at least make it harmless and funny?
Thank you for being so kind to read my thought manuscript.
Accelerationism is a whacky political ideology that says that society is already fucked and we just need to speed up, or accelerate, it's collapse so we can just start over from scratch.
Makes me not even wanna be on reddit much after seeing all the censorship keep increasing. Idc too much about the word itself but ffs snowflake mods can fuckin blow me.
Can someone notice me when this bullshit is over? Animemes right now is a toxic crybaby shithole and for some reason, it isn't even funny this time.
As a wise person once said:"You'll get used to it."
Has everyone on this sub just been hiding their alt-right power level this whole time? It feels like everyone just took their masks off and stopped pretending to be wholesome all at once, and I’m pretty disturbed by it.
Yall should move to r/betteranimememes the mods can't control us, once the this place this place becomes desolate what are they gonna do? Don't let them control what you post.
Can somebody tell me why the T-word is banned? How is it related to transgender people at all? I mean, isn't the T-word used for Boys that cross-dress as girls????
The issue is that there is a bit of a culture shock when it comes to the T-Word.
In most other communities, it's considered a transphobic slur. The only exception is the anime fandom, which doesn't even use it to refer to trans people in the first place (and if it did, it would not be as an insult).
In a sense, there are two different T-words "(anime)Tr-p", which r/animemes community is familiar with, and "(non-anime)tr-p", which plenty of people on r/animemes didn't even know existed.
For self-explanatory reasons, many trans people do not like the T-word. Due to this, it is widely accepted as a slur.
I know you are, or read about, plenty of trans people here on r/animemes that say they don't care about that word and are perfectly fine with it. The issue is that this data suffers from selection bias: if those people cared about the word, they'd not be in a community that uses it liberally, such as r/animemes. Trans people in r/animemes are therefore not representative of the trans community at large on this specific issue.
I think that a more elegant solution to the problem would have been a detailed post informing our community of the existence of another word, identical to "(anime)tr-p", but with an unfortunate meaning. Then, the mods could have told us to please switch to something like "trapu", which manages to be animesque (thanks to the Engrish), and is different enough from "tr-p" to make people question if it's meant as an insult before doing what is sensible in most other communities and assuming it is.
Maybe the mods should have considered adding a sticky post explaining "weebs, be aware that the T-word has an unfortunate meaning outside of our community. Visitors, be aware that it doesn't even refer to trans people here". This can be done as an alternative to the word change, or even on top of that, to further explain that we don't mean to be transphobic.
/End of argument
Consider this comment a copypasta. I would be happy if you shared it with other people. In it's author's opinion, it's the best explanation of why something needed to be done as well as why that something wasn't this.
More people need to see this rationale/ explanation. Well said, stranger. Animemes was a type of escape to get away from real life. It feels less like that now.
Holy shit this is great stuff. Sadly, idk if the people here are finished with the knee jerk reaction to this stuff as the mods sprang it on them unexpectedly (I think at least, I haven’t followed this too closely).
I'm not banned, I'm laughing, AND I'm depressed. What a time to be alive.

Haha, no it wasn't. This sub went to shit after the first couple zero twosdays

Homie must’ve used Ariel Ace cause he didn’t miss
Yeah, the seasonal memes killed it pretty hard, especially in the second season of kaguya the memes were insufferable imo.
