Unpopular opinion vs negative comments – Reddit Review

I really enjoy Reddit and it’s functionality. It’s freedom of expression in all forms. But when It comes to different opinions, I feel it lacks a function! The current layout is like/dislike. I got it. Seems cut and dry. But when it comes to actual conversations on the platform, I wish there were another option besides you can only like or dislike. I can disagree with people with out disliking everything they are trying to express. I wish there were a way to disagree with a post or comment by not giving a thumbs down, but maybe a split opinion button. Like a neutral position ( towards the specific comment) but a way to disagree and provide feedback without just straight up being hated and bombarded by thumbs down. And I get it. Some people are just ignorant and can’t provide legitimate arguments. But someone that is willing to have an educated debate on the subject/comment, should have a way to comment negatively on the post but offer a separate side bar (like change my mind function) instead of flat out having to be killed by down votes. I think there would be way more people commenting on good topics if they weren’t afraid of the thumbs down karma consequences of having a different opinion. Thanks for taking the time to read my rambling.
