Keep irrelevant or divisive posts out of a particular sub (rather than a bandwagon disagree button that idiots use to validiate their insecurities in a pointless mob circlejerk that doesn't actually bolster their "points" at all), then why do I constantly see folks arbitrarily downvoting relevant, non-offensive comments that are identical in nature to each other? The differing content shouldn't matter if it's relevant to the sub, right?
Reddit is such a toxic, circlejerking echo chamber. I mean this place is too, but at least there's no dislike button, so people have to actually engage.

the downvote button hasnt actually been used that way for like a decade. The hive mind is way too big at this point to follow a self governing system like that.

It's there so conservatives and chuds have something to complain about when reality hits them in the face and they realize no one agrees with or likes them

Reddit allowing downvotes is lame but their format is horrible for having discussions.
So in general the site is really just links. Anything else and you're doing it wrong --- "Oh, my mother; oh, my friends, ask the angels, will I ever see heaven again?" - Laura Marling ... Copied to Clipboard!

Seems like people use it as an emotional reaction button than anything else.

You have to remember at one point reddit wasn't mainstream
It was a niche social media forum. So at a time it was that now? It's nothing more than an advertising platform for companies. ... Copied to Clipboard!
