So its not just people, bots dislike reposts too.

Is this a repost?

[–]Sarcasm_Llama 2 points3 points ago

But... I do hate those things. I am confuse.

I don't know whether to downvote because it's a repost, or laugh because the OP is secretly making a hilarious joke.

I don't hate reposts, I dislike people who post things that have been posted before claiming to be the discoverer, creator or deliverer of something never before seen.

If reposts are okay, why do double-posts get downvoted?

Funny thing is, the account that posted this has already posted this picture before, and it was still a repost.

In explaining humor to a jokester AI in his book "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress", Robert Heinlein made the argument that jokes fall into three categories:Not Funny, Funny Once, and Funny Always.

So Don't repost unless the joke is of the "Funny Always" variety.
