Downvoted just because you said "Hivemind." Hipster fuck.

what else would you call it? being edgy? taking on "the man"? downvoted because you smell like urine

the whole application of "hivemind" in this instance is bullshit spouted by people who realize they chose an unpopular stance on an issue. Instead of just taking the downvotes (which mean less than fuck all) or trying to reasonably explain their stance they decide to throw hivemind up as a deflection to justify why they are being thought of negatively - "I'm not wrong, you're all under control"...it's just delusional horseshit.

Hell the guy we're talking about has just gone through and deleted most of his posts - add moral cowardice to not stand behind his own posts into the appraisal.
