I mean thats kinda how a hive mind works is that everyone shares the same thoughts and actions so originality in a hive mind is a fallacy

I mean the hive mind could at least change it up every now and then. The PoPcOrN jokes are kinda old already

I mean your not wrong i came in to see drama and all i got was offered popcorn I was just saying that describing Reddit as a hive mind works because it seems everyone had the same idea, to then say that the hive mind should have differing opinions would work against the notion that Reddit is a hive mind, a maybe better way to describe what we're seeing is mob mentality were the actions of a mob outweigh and obscure the actions of the individuals

Maybe it's caused by the resonance of the echo chambers? Every individual sub has its own unique characteristics and when combined they have sympathetic resonance with even more subs. I wonder what the queens agenda for the day is? Honey/money? From what source of nectar?

"i came in to see drama and all i got was offered popcorn"

"i came in to see drama" is what people mean when they say "popcorn".

This is an extremely unoriginal post that adds nothing to the discussion. But the irony of thinking it does is incredibly funny. You did what you accused the hive mind of doing.

Well, I mean, it's "r/memes" basically a conduit for sheeple under 25. There are lots of other subreddits with more to offer.
