Back in the day I often had "Trollsbane" as part of my nym because the only demographic flamers liked to insult more than each other was trolls.

I know, I know... definitions evolve and that word 'flaming' does not mean what you think it means (inconceivable!) but I felt I had to throw that out there just to put it on the record. Again. LoL

You are not the first person to defend flaming.

Most of the content on the internet/youtube ect is ragebait where a person "flames" this or that.

Yeah, but almost all of them suck at it.
Grievances, complaints, drama, tribalism, and propaganda delivered in whichever voice they think will get them the most clicks (providing of course they haven't simply been paid up front to push a narrative).

Thbbbft.
