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.

    Actually, they should be reported. Don’t just scroll pass if you see harassment or hate speech.

        If you want to be neck deep in that bullshit, you’re more than welcome to join exploding-heads.com. Can we have ONE space online that isn’t infiltrated by assholes?

        You don’t have to be a dick to others on the Internet. You can make that choice. Just because you CAN post hateful shit anonymously and not have to face real life consequences doesn’t mean you HAVE to.

          Not sure there’s anything to report with the previous comment; yet I don’t disagree with it being a dick thing to say.

            The k-soc terms of service state:

            Harassment, hate speech, or any other form of harmful behavior will not be tolerated.

            Now, I can’t read ernest’s mind to determine what he meant by this line exactly, but this kind of mean spirited, bad-faith jab falls under “harmful behaviour” in my book.
