Yes, you shut them down. That doesn’t require you to dehumanize them. Someone inciting violence against a minority group for example would also be banned I’m sure. The paradox of tolerance is simply solved by limiting the freedom of the intolerant. There are plenty of ways to do that without pretending the offender isn’t human. Honestly, resorting to that line of thinking is very much what Nazis do.
It seems like Overwatch news always gets very downvoted. Is it just because people dislike Blizzard’s mishandling of the game? That’s hardly reason to shoot the messenger for major updates. OP hasn’t endorsed anything, they just shared the news neutrally.
This seems like a big overreaction to me, so I see it as a clear PTB. I dislike the idea of banning people based on history in other communities, other than to check if they are a bot or advertiser or something obviously malicious. Trolling could mean something as simple as being sarcastic, and glancing through OP’s history they seem to be a real person who believes what they say, even if they can be quite rude about it.
But the upvote/downvote split suggests the community is more divided on this.
Off topic but you would add a second addendum with “PPS” which means post-postscript. “PSS” would be postscript script, which doesn’t make sense.
