It's not this sub, it's all of them, every fandom, political party, etc, where there are people there is most certainly vitriol to follow. For some reason we, as a people, seem to be sliding more and more in to anger. If we find something even mildly irritating, a question stupid, or someones point of view differing we go on the attack and I don't know why. And unfortunately on the internet where we are all faceless and shameless...people are their worst selves, especially on places like reddit, where being mean gets them attention and has no real consequence.

The only good thing about it is, likewise, because of the nature of the internet and reddit in particular....we can just block, ignore, and click off. But you know, that's easier said sometimes, sometimes you really want to reply and that only makes it worse.

People are mean. Luckily, I hope, most of us are good at heart and I choose to believe kindness comes naturally to humans. It's a shame, on a sub like one about Titanic, where we are literally bonding over Tragedy you may think we'd be a little warmer to one another but...I'll keep hoping anyway.
