As we start to see more users join, it’s inevitable to see trolls (especially low-effort trolls) making more of an appearance and trying to be controversial and noticed.

Best just to scroll past them. They want to spark unwinnable arguments and rack up negative rep. If something seems absurdly ridiculous or inciteful, just move on. It’s not even worth down voting.

    If that’s what the people in that magazine want to see they’re not being trolled at all. Now if that shit leaks out, then yeah I’m 100% with you.

      If they want to see that, they can start their own instance. No one is obligated to host them.

        “Can I come over to your house and shit in your hair?” said the pigeon.

        “No thank you. I’d rather you do that somewhere else.” said the man.

        “Censorship! Triggered! Snowflake!” Said the pigeon. Then he shitted in the man’s hair anyway.

        Sure, and if the instance operators decide that I respect it. Just saying it’s not up to me, or you, or the person I replied to.

      It’s not what people in that magazine “want to see.” Every post save the troll post linked to a news article, with little to no commentary. Thus the “News” name.
