196 does not rule when the top voted posts are all about US politics

Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
I find reporting trolls and bad faith actors to be far more constructive and also productive then pretending that they don't exist.
If the de facto response is to block these trolls instead of reporting them then there's no way that the situation can get better. Lemmy isn't a free speech platform like Nostr moderation is important and one big part of moderation is reporting trolls and bad faith actors, essentially calling them out to the moderators.
So do your part and report the trolls and psychos and if you don't want to follow up later then block them, but it's important to file a report first.
