Being on reddit

Some OP/comment: "Doing such and such could save environment or something something and is smart!" Provides reasonably well made arguments

Random comment: "Actually, doing so and so would be worse for this and that." Provides some counter-arguments that makes sense in some areas of the globe

Third comment: Types furiously "ActHuaLLy (...) you donkeys!"

Me: Grabs popcorn

I love this place!

If you want a post answered you need two accounts, one for making the post itself, and one for answering the post wrongfully but with the grasp you have. Someone will come right in and educate your comment that is wrong.

Oh, that's right. You are a polite troll. I mistook you for a poll-lite troll.

A lite-version troll that trolls with polls... or something. Idk what I am on about right now. Don't listen to me.

Plus a lot of people will come in and give answers even though they don’t know what they’re talking about. And so the poster probably still doesn’t know the correct answer.

It's kind of needed to make a shower thought interesting. Otherwise someone says something then there's no comments and that's the end of it

True. But that’s not what happened here.

Neither of the first two comments portrayed what happened here. Especially the first one. OP didn’t provide any reasonably well-made arguments.
