I've seen people who had profiles that literally professed that they only existed to troll, and their accounts lasted longer than people who said something wrong politically regarding Israel/Palestine.

lol that's wild, trolling on here seems pointless with the low user base.

Not gonna lie I filtered out Israel, Palestine, and hamas when that started, because of the differing political groups being so hard line/obnoxious in the comments.

You would think that, right? Some people legit have nothing better to do.

I mean, I know I've got nothing better to do than dick around online, but like... I still want to have real conversations and not just try to upset people. It's really weird, unhealthy, antisocial behavior.
