This entire community is becoming a shitshow.

    When almost every top-level comment is people saying this shit and almost every comment has a thread of people arguing over it, the problem is more than a handful of trolls. I think this community isn’t equipped to moderate threads that are primarily about US politics.

      i don’t disagree. most communities are not equipped to such things in fact. hence the common phrase “don’t feed the trolls.”

      not trying to victim blame you here, your experience is absolutely valid and you shouldn’t have to worry about these things but the reality is the ideal change is too costly, so the only alternative is the collective understanding that we don’t give the trolls what they want and eventually they leave.
