So let's try to fix it. How though?
The only (poor) idea I have is to have a 'value' button or something. Click it if you think the comment has 'value' but is not necessarily something you 'like'. Yeah, I know, it'll be gamed and just turn into yet another thing to express downvotes with, but maybe it'll work.
Any other ideas?
Still, FB is totally dominant and they could change it in a day if they wanted to and people would come back without any other issues.
- zitterbewegung 9y agoI don't know if you can fix it. Part of the problem is that people don't want to be challenged with opposing views and that is part of the human condition.
- pbhjpbhj 9y agoIt's this just assertion or do you have backing for it. It's certainly "nice" to think that "people just bury their heads and that's why I can't convince then of my far superior position", but evidence?
- smsm42 9y agoI think if we agreed that not being tolerant to opinion diversity is the part of human condition we would want to have less of, we'd be moving in a right direction. After all, there are many parts of human condition that we view as negative and are reasonably successful in controlling and reducing them. E.g. if somebody has something you want, we no longer OK with clubbing that person over the head and taking it. There are many animal and other base urges that we keep under control with reasonable degree of success. Maybe we could do it here too, if we only tried?
