when "the trolls" are actually an organized harassment campaign, yeah, "just ignore them" doesn't work. when "the trolls" is J-Bar and Yatt M'G posting their contrarian hot take clickbait, "just ignore them" is precisely what we should do.

It's like when whoever it was posted that "everyone should just admit that live music is bad, actually" take years ago. that's not a real argument. that's just aggressively making overboard claims, to get people mad on purpose. we can just not engage, who needs MORE to be mad at?
