MODERATORS
Your idealistic view of shitposting may sound coherent in itself, but it lacks any basis in reality. Humans aren't machines who can give monotonous and one-sided output indefinitely. Every action has a reaction, and every serious post requires its corresponding ironic shitpost to keep the mental balance in order. I'm not even saying that a compromise needs to be made, but rather that they are different sides of the same coin. No internet community, it is said, can grow to heaven if its shitposts do not reach down to hell.
You (a sociopath) may think that shitposters are a necessary casualty of the internet wars, that they belong at the "children's table" of the internet where serious discussions are met with mockery.
But I (a good person) know that these shitposters have the potential to better themselves, and through themselves better the world, by posting thoughtful content instead of the steady stream of drivel and waste that poisons communities and turns sons against daughters, mothers against uncles, and pets against emotional support animal companions.
Ok
