Seriously, this new posting system is preposterous .
Passing ambiguous/binary  judgement , often on articles I have not read.
IS THIS A GOOD COMMENT?  What do you mean by GOOD COMMENT Globe? If someone is making a comment simple that I fundamentally disagree with it's unlikely that I will think it is a GOOD comment. "GOOD COMMENT" is much too subjective a concept.   What do you do with the data? If all the people that are forced to review a comment feel it is not a good comment what do you do. If most people feel it isn't civil what do you do?

Emoticons???
LIKE  is pretty clear. It probably means I agree with it.
Funny? Is it funny by intent or do I find it funny because it's so (unintentionally ) stupid?
WOW ? What the heck does that mean? Wow that's insightful or wow that's ignorant, etc. etc.?
SAD ? Sad because it's a sad truth? Sad that the poster thinks that way?  Which is it?
Disagree ? that's clear.
That's two out of five REACTions that have a clear meaning.

Dumb.
