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!

    Never feed the trolls, the only winning move is to downvote and move on

    A counter-philosophy I subscribe to is call out the BS but don’t go back and forth. If you let the trolls be this can bring more trolls. Call out the bad behavior and move on so it isn’t accepted but they also don’t get the satisfaction of engaging in an argument.
