It's really interesting you're willing to and do preemptively apply guilt by association to everyone (by flagging) instead of downvoting/flagging specific comments, suppressing the whole conversations.
It's Minority Report you're engaging in, no?
Have you thought about this before? Do you apply guilt by association in your thinking in other places in your life?
I'm seriously curious if you've self-reflected on this - and it's not intended as an attack or putdown of any sort.
Why not allow the "lots of people here have useful things to say about what's happening here" and allow the "low quality" comments be suppressed-flagged?
One problem though is we have people who apply guilt by association to everyone downvoting anything they interpret however they likely with bias interpret - but you believe you're competent enough to make that judgement call, to be "judge, jury and execution" instead of perhaps just not engaging in threads that bother you too much to filter through?
