Comments written for optimizing votes from the consensus filter are boring, the top comments on reddit are almost always bland jokes or someone quoting the democratic party position on something totally uncritically. I can get all that from mainstream media but with better production values.
"I have the correct opinion™, please validate me with upvotes", "Can you believe that some people have the wrong opinion™ They are dumb!" over and over again gets old fast.
- thyssen 4y agoHN is like this, complete with people drumming it up by starting the comment off with “Look, folks” and then saying something completely fucking milquetoast about the subject matter.
- willcipriano 4y agoReddit is over the top with it. Go to a post, nearly all the responses are deleted, hundreds of them, inbetween the deleted comments you find enthusiastic support for the current thing. "I had to lock this post yall, too many people being crazy"
