Well, I agree that Reddit's voting system encourages groupthink, but I'd rather that unpopular opinions were silenced by other commenters rather than all opinions being silenced.

Do you think that comments belong anywhere on the web (on aggregator sites, for example)?

Unmoderated commenting doesn't belong anywhere that relies on advertising as a business model.

At the very least, have a human editor filter out comments, based on editorial guidelines.
