There's too much online discussion where the topic at hand is reinvented from first principles again, and again, and again, in what can at best be described as a strenous relationship to actual reality as every debateperson is loaded with the assumption that they are imbued with the sum total of human knowledge and therefore must never read any material on anything other than other peoples posts that are also reinvented from first principles

These people should all be shamed away from participating in any discussion until they better themselves, which is what lurk moar did.

also lurk moar is just good for you as a user. being a 7 year old let loose on the internet was made a lot safer and less stressful by the general idea of "don't join discussions if you aren't certain whats going on" and "reread your message a bunch of times so you don't get dogpiled for something" and "DEAR GOD lie about your age and gender", and ngl thats all still pretty good strategy as an adult too.

the way modern kids act online really worries me sometimes - not for the sake of The Discourse or whatever, but for their safety and sanity.
