Open dialogue. I like going on mental walkabouts wherever they may lead. Plus, social stuff like gender and dating behavior is an interest of mine. On Reddit, you get downvoted for saying anything other than "you're correct, i agree with whatever nonsense your saying."

Okay lol to be a bit more serious though I think you're making a great point. Reddit with its current model of communication is creating docile yes-men that are either too afraid or too lazy to type up a long, coherent argument.

The quality of posts on the site are becoming (or have been for a while now) really shitty, especially the more popular the subreddits are. It's somewhat unavoidable, but if I had a nickel for every time I made a gigantic post about something, and somebody either didn't read it correctly or deliberately took something I said out of context to be an offended prick, I'd be rich. It's getting more to be like facebook, where people don't continue or start a debate/argument to learn and develop discussion, it's just to one-up people and have their little "gotcha" moment in the spotlight where they can collect karma.

Exactly. I was/am getting tired of saying something as simple as "i like roses, not as much as tulips, but i like them." only to get replies about how I'm an idiot for liking sunflowers instead of tulips.

I'm often confused. It's like arguing with my ex, at a certain point I'm not arguing about what i said but what they heard and likely just using any excuse to argue their point regardless of what i say.
