It highly depends on the sub-reddits. Go to highly frequented and news-oriented subs like /r/worldnews or /r/soccer and you'll see the group-think comments upvoted the most. I agree though, on more specialised and less trafficked subs the comments with the highest number of points tend to have the most value, too.
- yreg 5y agoYes, /r/worldnews, /r/politics or even /r/europe are flawed with the group-think. Still, I find this flaw to pale in comparison to what I see in (central-european, but also foreign) Facebook threads, where the top comments are often racist, mysoginist (or recently, attacks on vaccinated people).
