To be sure, we all retain the option of not reading the comments. Which, in light of the latest research, is looking smarter than ever.


I began filtering out commenters probably a decade or more ago. Even here on DU it's rare that I'll read beyond the first half dozen comments, and usually I only skim the Subject line listing and click to those that sound interesting. And as for trolls and sock puppets and what-all: Life's too short to wallow in kiddie scorn.
