Maybe not on Reddit, which has an average age and IQ lower than here (in my very strong opinion).
But on the Internet, which is really to say in written form, there's more room for attention span and dissection of arguments. In person, in conversation, you have attention span issues, you have failure to break down definitions and thus people arguing sideways against one another, etc.
It's harder to cheat in the written word.
