I'm not the OP, but I'd argue that Reddit's voting system discourages a diversity of opinions within a given thread or sub-reddit. Although moderators discourage the practice, most Redditors down-vote opinions they disagree with and up-vote those they agree with.

I believe the issue has more to do with the subreddit structure and user moderation, which make really easy to create one-sided echo chambers.
