if they're ironically calling the subs they bully "the top minds of reddit" then where do you think that places them? the same thing could be accomplished by unironically called themselves that, but it's just more obvious and direct.
But they're not ironically calling themselves geniuses. That's my point.
It would be a problem if they thought that pointing out the lowest, dumbest people on the planet made them geniuses. But I defy you to find posts or comments on TMoR where users are claiming to have "high IQ scores" or are even claiming to be smarter than average.
You don't have to explicitly say "I'm smarter than you" to imply it.
Example: When you say someone is dumb, you imply that you are smarter than them. Otherwise you would just be a bully. So this is a subreddit about people saying they are smarter than group X, or a subreddit of bullies. Doesn't make them more likable
Being smarter than the alt right isn't impressive. I think everyone on TMoR would agree. Regardless, the people they're making fun of are the ones who go on about IQ scores.
Yeah. But think about it, please. Dumb people will say hateful things. Thats just how it goes. By mocking them you antagonise them, instead of leading by example. No good is to be created by mocking someone. For me, they are just as bad as the people they are mocking.

Some of them are the frens in disguise that pretend to play yahtzee. They want us to be seen as yahtzee players. A true fren is a fren to all games.
1 Nyaa_UwU 2019-05-05
Well said fren
1 Quantcho 2019-05-05
Funny thing is that they use all white dice in their game of Yahtzee and don’t even realize it.

a good way to see if someone is a true fren or not is /u/userleansbo.t with no dot at the end.
Someone will say they are a fren, but then you do that and they have 11k karma in TopMinds or AgainstFrenSubreddits
1 Rubissrox 2019-05-05
Honestly any subreddit that unironically calls itself the top anything is a joke.
1 Aqulas1 2019-05-05
Top minds = mockingly calling the people they post about top minds because a false sense of superiority is the only thing that brings them happiness.
1 PleaseCensormeDaddy 2019-05-05
they are the real supremacists fren.
1 Aqulas1 2019-05-05
They are the true nonfrens.

"TopMinds" is in reference to the people they're making fun of. They're being sarcastic.
Why does no one understand irony anymore?
1 tekkeX_ 2019-05-05
haha guys i'm x
no no no, you'd don't understand, i'm doing it IRONICALLY. you just don't understand cuz you're a cringe-ass bruh normie.

They're calling their opponents "top minds" ironically, not themselves.
1 tekkeX_ 2019-05-05
if i change "i'm" to "you're", do you think that makes it any better
1 xorbus 2019-05-05
You're changing the subject. My complaint with the original comment was about subs calling themselves "the top of anything."
They're not calling themselves the top minds. End of story.
But yes, it is better. Because they're making fun of stupids who think they're smart, not claiming to be geniuses themselves.

1 Der_Jones 2019-05-05
Yeah, just like saying I'm smarter than a downs kid. It's not impressive, it's a disgusting superiority complex.
Doesn't make it better to make fun of people who are not gifted with intelligence. Not everyone can be.
1 xorbus 2019-05-05
They're not making fun of autistic kids though are they? They're making fun of nazis, white supremacists, and mysogenists.

I guess following everyone else’s opinion and finding sources makes you a top mind. If that’s the truth then anyone can be a top mind fren
