Read comments to see what everyone else is saying. Leave a new comment, definitely not a response, saying the same thing.

And these choice phrases that are guaranteed to add to the conversation.

  • This is why I use Firefox.
  • You are the product.
  • [Political party or a member] sucks.
  • This isn't a problem in my country.

This isn't a problem in my country.

Along the same lines are the "Americans forget that other countries exist" comments.

Does American culture have a problem with ethnocentrism? Generally yes. Is reddit an American website where the vast majority of users, comments, posts, and topics are American? Also yes. When I'd see one of the "you're an arrogant asshole for assuming this post is about the US" comments, I just assumed it's someone being pedantic and contrarian for the sake of it. It just ruins what is sometimes a valid point.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
