On the flipside, not cutting out the cancers before they stick isn't exactly a good look, either. When you have a lot of shills and infiltrators and all sorts of nonsense going on, you have to cut out the tumors before they grow. We need to be able to trust what we know. We need to counteract any enemy psyops, including through direct confrontation if necessary. Even if the mods don't start something like this, given the drama has come out of what is in reality a very small number of people, it could be started even if the mods did nothing. Better to work em out of the woodwork sooner rather than later imo.
