For example, people on Reddit asking redundant questions and give equally redundant or unhelpful answers.

Whenever every 'What's the worst show you've seen?' is asked, you'll get 10,000 "Kardashians" answers, which is just easy karma farming.

If someone posts in a community that's geared for something like opinions, but someone elects to just go on a full scale rant instead.

Cynicism and despair. There are no better words to describe reddit today than these two. Why do they argue endlessly over nothing? Because to them, nothing matters.

You can see that sentiment start popping up in the comments with the newest influx, but I hope sincerity will win out in the end this time.

    Especially the pointless cynicism of a “Didn’t happen” reply. My single most powerful change to make Twitter a less toxic place (ho, ho) when I used it was to block @DHOTYA_ and related keywords and anyone who used them.

    Pn the reddit side, i started lurking !savethirdpartyapps@reddit same topics over here but... people were being brought in circles by the same claims being repeated by the "nothing matters" people, the fact the debate was harrassed into hopelessness. The problems of these people were adressed to be not hopeless 15,12,7 and 4 threads ago. Its frustrating!
