That people carry the toxic "make this post go away because I don't like it" mindset everywhere, even when they're explicitly asked not to?

At this point, the only reason I still hold a (read only) Reddit account is so I can turn implicit censorship like thresholding and front page blocks off. HN, unlike reddit, still has value as a discussion medium, but I wish that "showdead" didn't make the posts unreadable.
