I approve of this humorous framing.

Hey, so, real question for you:

Why are you bothering with all this?

There are a lot of people I don’t agree with, some I find downright obnoxious, and the last thing I’d choose to spend my limited time on this earth doing is finding them and telling them why I dislike them. Is there truly nothing better for you, no positivity you can bring to people or things that you do like, that would be a better use of your time than… This?

You aren’t punishing your hated foes. You are sticking it to them, you aren’t, in fact accomplishing anything. Is reddit truly so pristine and flawless that there is no possible use of your time that could make it better, rather than the shouting into the void you are meaninglessly doing here?

Because, if not… That’s awfully sad. Kid with progeria breaking his ribs catching a nerf football sad. Your dad ran over your cat level sad. I am begging you, for the sake of what I am going to call your soul without intending any supernatural implications: find something actually worthwhile to do with your life.

Yup. They absolutely shouldn’t pay, for decision theoretic reasons, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be interesting fireworks to watch.

Have you considered shifting to a model of only permitting disneyfied John Oliver image posts?

There was clearly a Brit involved in this… travesty.

More seriously, how was it? I’m still working on a way to manage the height of the burgers I construct. There’s just too much that is good to put in!

I seem to recall, “Go back to Digg” being a thing, after the V4 exodus. The fact is that, no matter what you do, humans are going to be human. We can encourage people not to be like that, to be patient and helpful, and it will help, but… kbin is kind of in the middle of a septembering, and there’s really no way to tell how it’s all going to shake out (although as part of the group whooshing in I hope to be a good contributor in both content and attitude).
