They'll just debate the positive argument.
The lesson? If you hate the negativity, debate it. Offer a differing viewpoint. Make some positive threads. Trying to ruin every negative thread by lightweight trolling it or complaining about it is far more damaging than negativity. If you brought a differing viewpoint, actual debate or positive threads, it'd do a lot more to help your cause.
No one is stopping you from doing that.

Never ever saw a comment comparing positive fans to battered wives.
Never saw any threads about how anyone who had a positive thought was "blind" or "brainwashed" or "falling for Mike Browns BS".
Never seen a thread about how stupid anyone would be to renew their season tickets.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
