    The biggest issue in some places was, even if your opinion is valid, if it didn’t fit the group speak, it would be downvoted regardless.

    It wasn’t really a great indicator if your opinion was popular or not, it was more if it got that groups niche.

      … That’s called popular opinion lol.

      Of course it matters where you say something. It’s literally no different than IRL.

        If I’m on Reddit it’s to Reddit, it’s not to change my vocabulary and content to fit each individual subreddits niche.

        Imagine being in a country bar and a table only wants to talk about and listen to rap music. The rest of the place shouldn’t have to bend to their will or create some safe place for them.
