I’m sort of 50:50 on that one. Whilst it’s a truism that controversy drives engagement, I think it’s still a winnable fight to make it clear to platform owners that most people really do not like slop. It’s not like when you platform fringe racist groups or something where nobody would have heard of them otherwise and they thrive on the oxygen of publicity.
dont need this. posting this as a response to any slop would be engagement, which is the goal if im not mistaken.
edit - having read the comments i can see i missed some obvious and valid use cases. carry on.
“Do not feed the trolls.” works, unless the majority of people in a country are sociopaths who go out of their way to help trolls gain power.
