Genuinely curious: political discussions on Reddit are notably sterile and quickly devolve into shouting matches. Why even spend your energy or time arguing with shills/trolls/bots/someone whose opinion won’t change as a result of the discussion/argument?
- sbf501 4y agoBecause they aren't always sterile, thats yet ANOTHER trope about reddit: I've learned quite a bit when a historian enters the chat. And, TBH, sometimes I like a good ol' internet fight when someone spouts some dumb shit (esp. MAGA nonsense). It's in my blood. Being a good troll is NOT easy, it is a skill that requires practice.
