That's far from a Reddit-specific thing. Granted, it occurs on Reddit, but the behavior is observed throughout all "social media."

Yes, it ties in to the outrage culture that has developed on the internet. A lot of people now seem to treat others as NPCs in a video game, to be abused or treated in any way that trips the "player's" dopamine.

I hope that it burns itself out and the web as a whole moves on from it.
