    This is clearly fake. If it had really happened at least one person would have called them a slur and downvoted their entire post history, then they would have been permabanned from 7 different subreddits.

      You’re missing pulling something out of their comment history without any context.

        Are we really going to listen to a guy who said this?

        Neither the Orion Syndicate nor the Ferengi Alliance are members of the Federation.

        Note: I literally picked one at random and feel like I got the best non-sequitur available.

      i had the experience of someone recently threatening to kill me or something if i was doxxed, i then promptly told them to go doxx me.

      I was very disappointed to learn that they didn’t doxx me.

      I stay away from what all I call bummer topics because mentally, I just can’t take it anymore. I’m 38, and im already done with this life and the constant bullshit that the people in power do. So I just look at cute animals, video games, macro photography stuff, and stuff like that.

    If you are attached to whether you’re attracting downvotes or upvotes you are setting yourself for disappointment for no reason. Just say your thing.

      sometimes i like to just, say the wrong opinion, for no reason other than i think it’s funny. But also educational to watch how people react to things.

        The word you’re looking for might be “trolling”. Which isn’t bad, by all means, as long as you recognize what’s happening

    If I give any kind of opinion I can understand downvotes on a comment of mine, but the totally innocuous ones that get downvoted are always funny.

      i think it’s just herd mentality. People see downvotes and then go “yeah downvote bad, me grug, me downvote comment also”

      the amount of posts i saw about some negative thing that had comments that were like “i almost downvoted this” was concerning.
