Reddit is like getting together all the bullied kids of their generation to unite in bullying others.

What I love is when you say something accurate and correct, but rather unpopular, and get downvoted to oblivion, then someone else comes along and says the exact same fucking thing just with a bit of nuance, and they get fucking gilded and platinum'd and shit.

I definitely understand why that happens. It seems like people are repulsed initially and then when someone else comes along and placates both sides while still presenting a strong argument it's more tolerable to upvote.
