I feel like we’re playing a semantics game here.

We are definitely referring to the same behavior.

They run around the fediverse picking ten arguments at a time, getting in people’s faces, escalating moderation decisions to instance admins and generally have zero chill.

This is, for most people including me, toxic behavior. They have a toxic posting culture.

yet, I still see weird and factually wrong takes like this.

It helps if you engage with the “takes” before you label them.
