It's funny seeing all of the comments trying to blame the users for this screwup by claiming they're using it wrong. It is reddit though, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

what is it about reddit that causes this behavior, when they otherwise are skeptical only of whatever the "official story" is at all costs? it is fascinating behavior.
One reason is lazy one liners are allowed and have high cost/benefit for shitposters and attract many upvotes, so this gets voted highly setting the tone for flamewars in the thread.
It’s miles better on HN. Most bad responses are penalized. The culture is upvoting things that are contributing. I frequently upvote responses that disagree with me. Oftentimes I learn something from it.
think about the demographic that would join a cursor subreddit. Basically 90% superfans. Go against the majority opinion and you'll be nuked
>Go against the majority opinion and you'll be nuked
This is true for the entirety of Reddit, and the majority is deranged.
I think it's a combination of oppositional defiant disorder and insufficient moderation.
