Many of us have already overcome it! All of them are holding us back though.

FFS this is the most ignorant comment I’ve ever read. YOU all are the ones holding us back.

The fun thing is I can’t tell if this comment is ironic or not.

It’s literally the top comment. Can we leave “underrated comment” comments back on Reddit?

We also had backseat modding and obnoxious rhetorical questions back on reddit, if you really insist we have this discussion
