What about those particular instances is so bad?
If you're not familiar, r/ChapoTraphouse was the left wing version of r/The_Donald, complete with trolling and brigading. And like r/T_D, it got banned, then remade, then banned again, etc. Until most of their users switched to lemmygrad and hexbear, particularly the more toxic users.
I assume those are the instances from which I occasionally catch stray misc political statements that seem to be goading me into a fight.
They get bored quickly if you talk to them like people, they target people with tempers. Works well.
Who knows though.
Yeah, they absolutely goad you into a fight then report you for the exact same shit they do/say but you’ll get banned- they won’t.
