But do I really want to read only what I already know or agree with?
Beats me. Why do you ask?
It kind of sounds like you’re trying to equate “people whose contributions are sufficiently widely disliked” with “people who only write stuff I already know or agree with”… in which case I would ask you to defend that equation, since it seems pretty unjustified to me.

I suspect somebody of this crowd might write something very interesting to me, had he not been such a karma whore. I would gladly pay that with some more digesting of empty and silly posts, which are inevitably when there is no karma system.
I expect that the more empty and silly posts there are, the less likely the members of “this crowd” who have something interesting to say will be to continue posting here.
