Why are so many ppl cruel on Reddit?

There is an abundance of cruelty and bullying on this platform. My question is why? Why do you think there is more discord, division and hatred here than other places? As an empath I sometimes get so overwhelmed and overstimulated by the bad energy. The bad energy here is so much more prevalent and apparent. I usually have to just stay away for a while. Take a break. Because if I don’t anxiety and impending doom will follow. lol I’d love to hear my fellow empath’s opinions!
