  Buzfeed is:<br>- Not serious enough to be a news source.<br>- Not funny enough to be an entertainment company.<br><br>There. I said it.

  One time I was reading a Buzzfeed thing and a few paragraphs seemed very relatable to me, like EXTREAMLY relatable. As if I lived through the exact thing they were talking about. Then it hit me, I did. I wrote that article. Turns out a Buzzfeed &quot;writer&quot; copy and pasted, word for word, a story I wrote on Reddit and passed it off as their own. Anyway that&apos;s also the day I learned that Copyright law is hardly ever enforced outside of academics (unless you got a boat load of money). Ya, Fuck you Buzzfeed.

  Buzzfeed went from “15 things to do on a road trip with friends” to “why white men don’t deserve human rights”

  in my opinion the best “i quit buzzfeed and now i’m super successful” story is the one of quinta brunson. she went from making videos for buzzfeed to winning an emmy in just 4 years.

  The Unsolved series was the only thing keeping Buzzfeed relevant. Now that Ryan and Shane are gone and have their own channel, there’s nothing left for Buzzfeed.

  I love how every single genuinely charismatic personality at Buzzfeed all had this unifying moment of looking at the company they worked for and being like &quot;wait, <i>why</i> do we need you again?&quot;

  Try Guys, Worth It, and Unsolved were Buzzfeed’s peak and why I watch their channel regularly. I’m happy that they all branched out and made content for their own.

  Ryan and Shane were the only thing keeping me watching buzzfeed, the second they left to their new channel I subscribed to the watcher and forgot all about buzzfeed

  Hires mostly POC and LGBTQ employees, then lays them off and gets criticized for laying off mostly POC and LGBTQ employees is the most American thing to complain about lol

  The way they treated all the women of Ladylike was prime example how toxic the environment was there.

  From that &quot;hiring&quot; tweet alone. Buzzfeed deserves all the shit it&apos;s getting

  If you hire based on peoples race and gender and sexuality, when you end up dismissing those people you&apos;ll end up looking like the company you thought you hated.
