No, it's a new user that really doesn't like to give anyone the benefit of the doubt. That happens with the self-absorbed, smarter-than-you types, I think. Anyway they are a good test case in what happens when one really active Reddit prick starts blowing up all the threads. All the major influxes of Redditors we've had have been relatively isolated, because they tended to stay in their own corners. This one got out of the bag, unfortunately. Hopefully, everyone can collectively agree to just ignore, and they will go away or adapt. The person seems educated from other threads I've seen, so perhaps they would be a positive contributor, if they would get over themselves.

    if they would get over themselves

this is the key part, I think. my friend recently started dating someone like this. if you get them on some footings, they're quite good to converse with, but most of the time they're just a rotten fucker who's incredibly judgemental (almost to the point of "Holier-than-thou").
