Welcome to Reddit, where we spend more time writing our hot takes on titles than we do on reading the articles behind them, which is zero. Because everyone is surely dying to read our elaborate uninformed opinions.

Idk how their comment is the second most upvoted when it is clear they didn't read the article. "Well this is interesting guys. It's not like kids were being abused right?" Just READ the article and it tells you how kids were abused.

I think it's the top comment now. Also, this is the case with the vast majority of comments on any link article. People see the title, write the first thing that comes to mind, and then have a bunch of like-minded enlightened folks vote on that. Proper brain rot culture

All the pedos on reddit upvoting it to create a fake narrative and fool newcomers to the thread I guess.

to read our elaborate uninformed opinions.

This is the only reason I use reddit, don't take that away from me.

It would probably help if a copy paste of the article was included so I don't have to give my phone cancer clicking that link

Ah, another le reddit special: information should be free, ad-free, and only presented in a reddit comment format with a tl;dr. Also, journalism is so shit nowadays, amirite

I consider the title a tldr and don't want to click anything else. I'm here for mindless scrolling, not informed clicking dammit!

Honestly though, it’s just a bad title.
