    You can post a comment disagreeing and not reply. Not every comment has to be seeking out “worthwhile debates”

      still missing the point. we’re not talking about a couple comments here or there.

      the article is about people who showed a clear pattern of doing it way more than others.

        I didnt say a couple of comments. I said to some people there is no point in commenting if you agree with the majority opinion. Thus all your comments end up being disagreeing.

        The study identified this behaviour as a subset of users and labeled that as trolls which could be moderated before “causing harm” thats insane to me.
