This is one of those stupid articles that are like "water is wet says a new study" and far more people than it should be say "holy fuck it's wet when I wash things. It must mean I wash things with water. Omgomgomgomg!!"

No shit users are trolls on reddit.

Disagreeing is not trolling. I hate post where everyone just comments the same thing. It's has no value, it's boring.

When people have different opinions and exchange ideas it gets interesting.

Bizarre to have a headline claiming five "types" were identified, but then only describe the behavior of a single type. What are the other four?

I mean if you’re on r/star wars or a political subreddit, then yeah lol.

It might be quicker to list the subreddits where this doesn't happen

Omg no it isn't!

This is literally the point, there is a clear difference between a hegelian dialectic and brute-force manichaeanism.

Social media has allowed us to perceive the one as the other.

Now everybody thinks they're the only righteous ones and anyone who deviates from their strict ~~opinion~~ dogma is evil.

Yes some people love to argue. I get it, I think arguing with others is fun. It's not so great online tho. It's empty and soul-less.

[–] rottingleaf@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Some people while cleaning a table just love to scratch it a bit. Why not leave that fossilized fat stain alone.

Same vibes. There's no use in agreeing. You are just adding to a clueless crowd.

Disagreeing helps everyone.
