Oh, did you go down the path of gaming engagement by creating discussion posts instead of link posts with context? ;)

How does this game engagement? Are link posts treated differently on the backend than discussion posts? Or are users more likely to ignore link posts?

On the train to a concert, I was talking to her about some protests she went to (Antifa). She mentioned that they sometimes set fire to cars. When I asked why they are doing it, she just replied: Because it's fun!

Dang... what if that car belonged to some poor worker who needs it for their daily commute? This just reinforces the stereotype that antifa are just hooligans and hypocrites
