Oh, we hear you. We, or at least I, am just not quite able to parse what you're saying.

Are you implying that Youtube is supposed to enforce some sort of "free-market" on the comments? Or are you baiting for some sort of "mob shouting" reply that you reference in your post? Do care to elaborate, as we Libertarians (and anarcho-capitalists), are listening.

Well, it was a bit of a joke, at the end of the post... showing how inflaming comments or outrage makes people comment more than nice stuff which they can agree with. Together with the description of public comment systems becoming proliferated with the negative spirals, it was also a bit meta :)
