This place seems dead. I was skimming some stuff to make a few posts, after posting a basic casual conversation, the negativity shut me down like usual. I am sitting here with 5 tabs and some interesting stuff, but I’m totally disinterested in trying or even spending any more time here this evening. What value does that add for anyone when this place is dying a slow death of disinterest and low engagement? I never add negativity. I only ignore and block. I never discourage because I know I would be shooting myself in the foot. Why is this not fundamentally standard logic for everyone. If you disagree about opinions, appreciate diversity and ignore or better yet discuss. Anonymous negativity to strangers is psychotic behavior that should never have existed in the first place. It is not normal. It is no different that walking up to a stranger in a supermarket and yelling at them for what they wear or how they talk. That is crazy stupid.

    I don’t accept that psychotic behavior is something that should be ignored or defended. I have asked for anyone to make a valid simple explanation and all anyone has done is prove exactly what I am saying. No one so far has said any meaningful reason why this has a place or should exist.

      You are declaring that downvoting is “psychotic behavior”? Am I understanding you correctly here?

      So now you’re the arbiter of a communities existence?

      Talk about psychosis, with a little narcissism on the side.

      I am not going to entertain your attempt at rationalization.

      I’ll just say this: When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
