Slashdot is an armpit of the Internet. Their articles are invariably sensationalist, usually at the expense of accurately representing the facts.
However, the commenters over there don't seem too bad.
As to the comments at GCR, well, they're almost as bad as the comments on a typical YouTube video. However, here's an interesting experiment: read only the non-anonymous comments. Those are the ones with hyperlinks for names. Since the commenters don't feel quite so anonymous, and chances are they're more invested in the site, they're less likely to tap out something emotional and disruptive.
The anonymous commenters don't need to think before they type. If this is the norm at GCR, they need to block anonymous commenting.
