If we’re turning into reddit, it’s in no small part due to people who obsess over downvotes and upvotes and manage to turn most every discussion into a piece of meta-garbage over voting. Often such people also claim that they “decided to completely ignore votes” while continuing to hold forth about them at great length, in a contradiction that only retains its ironic force the first 27 times or so.
