They’re not even contrarian they’re just ignorant and they love it. You can present them facts all day long and they just never learn or at least try to understand. I didn’t even bother replying to the people that replied to me on that comment thread I mentioned because it’s just a waste of time.
I have the same sentiment. Some people don’t want to think, they want to pick a side, get angry and rant or attack anyone that goes against their ‘side’.
Come to think about it, third party apps was the reason the sub was tolerable for me because I could filter out posts flagged as humor.
