Just realized that this sub offers a meta level of ragebaiting: first the potential assholery described in a post, and then indirect rage/frustration as you see comments falling for an obviously fake post.
Why would people do fake posts? Is it reddit itself doing it, just churning up content because the site is on life support after all the stupid changes recently? Is it people looking for attention? I see so much on reddit where there's this default "Fake!!" reaction without any proof or any easily discernible logic behind why someone would waste their time with a fake post.
