Maybe we really deserve it then...
If by We you mean humanity, then Yes. Yes We deserve it. It is what we are until we haven't been so for a long while.
Humans are not that great. We over consume to the point of self and environmental harm, we hurt others for entertainment and/or profit, and are built upon biologic hardware that reinforces those behaviors.
Not all jokes are shitposts. There are low effort, meme-ish responses, and then there is the social commentary of the jester. The joke form softens the impact and makes the recipient intelectually process something to recieve, or 'get', the humor. That helps concepts evolve and spread. The seed takes root, it doesnt just bounce on hard dirt.
Trolls are obviously drains on the system, identify them and block the user accounts. Maybe develop a troll list for users to import, but that gets into control and authoritarian issues. And i will admit there exists the rare very skillful trolls that honestly deserve a golf clap.
