I noticed that in Reddit, I got downvoted each time I had a different idea.
Politically, It was also changing depending on the time-zone.
When dealing with science, it was being downvoted (or banned) when the evidence broke with the popular theories.
The downvoting really reduces the diversity in thinking, and the progress in knowledge.

On many boards, including IMDB, some of us got together and pointed out that a lot of the posters were fronting and really didn't know the things they claimed to know. One bike mechanic guy said he got run off a subreddit for disagreeing with other posters about something when he worked in the industry for years.

They are all mostly high school or college kids. It's sad.

I am, by no means - attempting to make fun of someones appearance but go to reddit/r/selfies. It is exactly as you'd imagine. Not even saying they're unattractive but they're actual caricatures of what you'd imagine a social justice warrior to look like.

/r/selfies

Had no idea this sub existed.. I can't think of any healthy reason why anyone would post no context selfies of themself online for strangers.
