Complacency is the death of objectivity. Simply put, trolls bring chaos into an organized structure. This lets you either sharpen your stone with facts or cede to a higher argument. We wouldn’t be here without skepticism, so for even the smallest interlude to question us brings about the refinement of our position or a change in how we view current situations. Downvotes are an anethema to the situation, not a response.

Leaving the door open for dissent and even low rate Bantz like our trolls provide is what separates us from the cancel culture. They can throw every faggot they find against me, I’ll still walk forward.
Here's the thing, they're not here to banter or rib. There was a time and a place for that, which was about a decade ago.
The goal now is displacement and there are entire communities dedicated to this, fancying themselves as "de-radicalizers" using "mk ultra tactics". Letting them get any kind of purchase is like giving your community to them and not for this meritocracy of ideas, but because of sheer volume and hierarchal subversion - all of the sudden they take a mod position, then the whole thing goes to shit. They don't care about your intellectualizations, they want you gone.
I wish it was different, but fuck if it isn't the same shit over and over. Dissent is something you don't even have to look for anymore, look at how many holdouts they have and you tell me if it's a winning strategy to be accepting of what basically amounts to sophistry at best and abhorrent garbage on average. Something they can literally just program.
In any case I don't think anyone is banning anyone for the "wrong opinion".
Leftists do not banter and do not debate.
They are here to demoralize, spread highly biased disinformation, or to fedpost so hard their enemies are killed by the leftist security state.
Torture and genocide is a leftist hobby since 1792.
