this one is an exception
Just like the last hundred, right? The problem with this is that it never ends, because every asshole with an itchy mouse finger thinks it's his job to keep people informed by mindlessly upvoting increasingly trivial details about allegedly important stories. The site just sinks under a sea of exceptions. Nothing important actually happens as a result, but everybody feels empowered because they're "raising awareness" of things everybody who didn't abandon ship has already turned fanatical about. All you're accomplishing is the sustainment and amplification of your established convictions.
Wake. Up. Sheeple.
