No, really. I mean that title.
Why do we, as a species, feel the need to join groups where our opinion isn't wanted? Why is there always the one person at the "We Heart Ferrets Only" group who thinks their lower opinion of this questionably noble animal must be voiced? What is it about our pre-loaded ego that makes us think that honesty, even when not wanted or necessary, is something we should air?
In short, why do people join a thread or chat room and voice a contrary opinion to the one stated on the header? If it's a whoopin' they're a wantin', there are easier ways. Still, this phenomenon is interesting if you can remember to step far enough back to view it from a safe distance. Like watching predators disembowel a kill, there could be splashback, and your high horse doesn't like to be spattered with gore when it carries you through the thoroughfaire so you can spit on the peasants. Filthy mongrels, aren't they?
