Certainly not the way to encourage participation there, FWICS.
They don’t want “participation” as we know it. They want support and agreement with whatever dogma they’re spewing.
I just tell myself that I don’t understand their lives, and they’re only doing what’s best to get themselves through the day. I can’t get into it, and so I stay away. But I keep stumbling over their threads because it’s impossible to tell that’s what they are until one clicks in and reads them. Titles like “Hey! Look at this!!” don’t help.
I’ve learned to skip the articles and go straight to the keywords to see if the thread is a potential landmine. If not, I return to the top of the article and read.
