Man, advice animals is such a toxic place. It's the worst of Reddit all patting each other on the back and being smug about their shitty "just saying" comments.

Nah, it's every where. All subs turn into different bias pools. Including this one.

Yes, but we're right, so it's different.

This is the part that is sort of strange to me. We know everyone else if biased but were right. Dunning Krueger is very powerful and reaches even into the highest IQ levels.

Edit: watching the +1 and -1 shift in votes on this comment serves as a great example that even just bringing up a possible bias generates negative reaction.

I suspect in the long run that I have said to much in this thread and all my posts to it will start trending down.

Yeah but SRD doesn't have one single bias. There are arguments here all the time.

Which is why SRDD is a thing.

And SRDDD as well.

And I think all the way up to SRDDDDDD but I'm on mobile, so can't be bothered checking.

Which is fucking dumb considering anything that flares up on SRDD should be posted on SRD instead of some ridiculous SR(D)^15 or whatever sub existing that has one post.

SRD has a specific "no SRD links" rule. After SRDD popped up, people decided to keep the chain going. I think it's at SR(D^(10)) now.

We've only ever went to x6. I have 2 posts in x4, someone else stole my x5 :(.

None of these subs need to exist, really. You could just make meta posts, or just enjoy the drama here when it happens.

No you can't, because it will be downvoted.

I should have clarified that it was my opinion and not necessarily currently permitted.
