To name a few (note, I am only refering to the loud obnoxious minority, not the majority who are mostly cool)

Linux: too over the top fanboying a times, and the distro war can be absurd here; this coming from me, a full-time Linux user
Atheism: yes, I know religion is stupid; but you know what else is stupid, trying to force feed your opinion; I mean, we can't even joke about church wifi name here
Vegan: no, bashing meat eaters won't make them stop eating them, they'll just hate you more
American Politic: no, not everything is about your shit, that orange business man/ex-president in an orange suit doesn't affect the rest of the world

Sure you can. Look again at your link. You linked straight to one heavily down voted comment thread under that post. Click the view all comments link and you can see that virtually all the other comments there are positive, mainly, other funny wifi names. If you find one negative post, already heavily down voted, to be too much negativity for you then you are not going to be happy anywhere on the internet.

Yes, you are right, it has become more positive recently. When I first saw this, the comment in question had a positive point. Perhaps due to different timezone (some would be asleep while others awake)?

Also: look at the number of people who upvotes that shit.
