And here's an example of a bigger troll who it surprise surprise doesn't get flagged https://feddit.online/u/FiniteBanjo

Would discard a tool that identifies 90% of trolls just because it doesn't reach 100% accuracy?

We're running in circles at this point. I still have to see an example of a false positive for this system, as a nontoxic user being flagged as such.

Wouldn't say running in circles as much as ignoring the issues
