Due to human nature, drama is “juicy”, people like to witness it, and may even pick teams in a conflict. That’s unfortunate indeed, but not sure what we can do about it.
Discourage it instead of fanning the flames. Take a stance against bad faith actors and trolls, the same shit we’ve always done.
I think out of desperation to grow and thrive a lot of things are being let go and ignored. As always, this will only lead to things deteriorating until the place is detestable like Facebook, Twitter, etc.
Instead of embracing the things we can do better than those platforms we’ve carved out a space on many of the major instances for the worst of these people, and that’s a mistake IMO.
Let’s not pretend there aren’t shitheads on every side of every argument. If people are behaving in ways that aren’t what the home instances want, they should be dealt with by their instance admins and moderation. Doesn’t matter if you eat meat, plants, or paint chips. We don’t have to be like this, it’s a choice.

Who’s the bad faith actor between vegans and carnivores?
Look at the science you will know.
Don’t know, I don’t engage with that nonsense.
