I swear, every time most of the time I see someone being particularly rude, ignorant, and inappropriate on a post (usually political in origin, or they swing it to being political) I click on their profile and see it has been created that same day.

They are only there to sow discord. Only to piss people off. Idk if we can just report them (for what?) but I’d like to try exposing them before responding and interacting…

I am guilty of gobbling up the bait. I’ve started looking at profiles of people that piss me off exceptionally and noticed they’re burner bot loser accounts.

I guess i just want to say I’ve noticed it!

    No, Sounds like someone who can’t give a counter arguments, and instead reverts to crying about trolls, bots, and calling for the opposite side to be censored.

      The problem is that there are trolls here and rage baiters.

      Having an argument with them is their goal as it opens up discussion for them to contribute nothing and spread more division.

      They aren’t trying to have a discussion but use the comment chain to spread shit for others.

      The user here never called for opinions to be censored. He called for action against trolls and bots who intentionally try pushing false narratives and division

      The fact you immediately jumped to argue about censorship rally evidence your own point for being here and that’s to be a shithead too
