    I had the same thing on Reddit, got banned/downvoted even when I said “just playing devil’s advocate”

    It seems discussion is moving over for the new angrily shouting your opinion and ignoring any other information.

      I think part of it is because tone and intention are very hard to convey over text.

      I appreciate a good discussion, but am wary of getting into one online. Partially because I don’t feel like overclarifying everything I say just in case it might get misinterpreted.
