No they aren't. There are just more idiots in the us because it has a larger population. Here in germany there are a ton of idots too (AFD voters (extreme right))
No it definitely is, the questions and comments here get respectful and goodwilled replies (most of the time that is) while on reddit i would get 3 comments degrading me for my choices 1 that says im stupid and should do my research 2 trolls 1 actual answer to my question and ankther person telling me that they're better cause they know the answer. The "redditor cliché" is not so much a cliché as it is an actual representation. At least in my experience.
In short this place is not nearly as toxic as reddit is
