Tried posting and putting likes and none of what I put in there gets any recognition.

I still haven't quite figured-out how the karma system works on Reddit because I have a negative karma rating from once when I got brigaded by a subreddit called "SubredditDrama" AKA SRD that is famous for mocking short men and instigating over at r/short. The result of this is I can't post at r/short using my HeightismReport account anymore because r/short has a policy that people with negative karma can't post there. Essentially, I can't post at r/short because I was defending r/short against SRD. The Garmin mod absolutely loves that fact. Anyway, I tried posting elsewhere to get my karma back-up, and even though I got upvoted numerous times, my karma hasn't improved.
As far as posting goes, if you're posting on r/short, they're not going to say much if you're posting substantive posts. The vast majority of the posters there prefer a constant pseudo-positivity feedback loop or meta posts attacking other members of r/short for various reasons. I'm not sure what you posted, but only the posts that suit their limited fluffcore sphere of feelfoodz are paid any attention.

I love SRD, because they have somehow convinced themselves that mocking short men is okay but mocking fat women is a sin, even though the latter is more controllable. Either defend both or attack both. I believe "landwhale" is considered a slur over there, but "manlet" isn't. I tried to figure out how any unbiased human being can explain that one, then I realized most of society is like them. That's why we have university courses about weightism but nothing about heightism. |

I posted a question based on why so many short men would say something like "I would KILL someone if it could help me grow taller". I found that comment so degrading and so disrespectful to short men. I didn't ask for this and sure as hell don't want people to think I'd do something like that.
Anyway, I have zero response on that. I guess I'll have to try sharing my artwork just to get enough recognition or something.

That's why we have university courses about weightism but nothing about heightism. SRD is comically-pathetic with their hypocrisies. They'll all claim that they don't care about social justice at-all and say that they just want to laugh at people who argue online, yet, they absolutely do not tolerate weight-shaming when it is directed toward women. They remind me of r/short in that most of them will try to put off a badass persona, but the last thing they'll ever do is criticize women being that they'd rather whimper at their feet. You can't both be a "gives no fucks" badass who does whatever you want all the time, and also be a timid titmouse who walks on egghsells around certain people(women.) I think most of the posters on SRD are wanna-be Chads who probably got bullied by Chads in school, yet, they still want to be Chad-like, thus, they resort to SRD troll tactics as some type of middle ground being that they will never fulfill all of the requirements of Chadsmanship. The sad thing is that some of those powergoobers are short men. To me, addressing heightism isn't merely about height-based discrimination, it's about repairing all of these schools of completely flawed logic, hypocrisy, rationalizations, and other tactics that defy every objective means of drawing conclusions on how to behave in society. |

Both these groups, the white knights and the garmins, need to view how they're always the majority, yet they want to act like the rebels and underdogs. Which threads get the most positive feedback on both SRD and /r/short? The ones talking about heightism? Hell no. Those get downvoted due to "negativity" no matter how logical and educational they are. It's always the lazy posts that bash vocal short men which get upvoted. Still, these people want to act like they're putting up some uphill effort. Who are they fooling? Pretty much everyone in society agrees that short men are inferior and need to shut up and behave, so I don't know why they think their stance is a brave one.
Seriously, how can the threads shitting on "negative" short men get the most upvotes, yet they act like they're the brave minority taking a stand? These people are so illogical, it blows my mind. I guess everyone wants to be a badass against us oppressive anti-heightism dudes. God knows we're a powerful and villainous group with countless numbers. A real hero strictly defends women and kisses up to tall people, while encouraging Uncle Tom behavior from short men. Most of all, silence all discussion about height prejudice.
