    What’s the best move here? I guess just down vote and move on? Report?

    There’s not much to report and the community mods haven’t seemed bothered by any of the borderline trolling comments.

    They seem pathologically (or programmatically) unable to refrain from replying. Just look at this thread that’s been ongoing for nearly an entire day: https://lemmy.world/comment/11736052

    I honestly think downvoting and ignoring is the best route. But we all no people wound be able to refrain. Maybe a “don’t feed the trolls” campaign could help but it’s honestly too easy to get sucked in.

      It’s interesting in a way that being overly friendly in a passive aggressive, almost hostile manner seems to be able to skirt around the edges of the civility rule while still being absolutely infuriating - and effective bait.

      I’m starting to think they just really, really like arguing with people on the internet.

      Because I’m not trolling. And I’m still here, by the way. And still posting relevant political news stories to this political news community.
