They can't resist. There's no self-control or moderation or insight at all.

I visit some offensive and downright hostile subs and forums. I don't like knowing it's out there, but pretending it doesn't exist isn't gonna change that. So I'd rather hear what others have to say and see if I can understand where they're coming from, even if I don't agree with their view.

When I've had a drink or 5, sometimes I get the urge to respond and engage.

But before I hit submit/save on my drunken blabbering, I ask myself, "is this going to make a difference at all? Am I just drunk enough to think that my opinion matters to them? They don't want me here, and didn't ask for debate or the input of the other side. Maybe I should hold off and look at this again tomorrow when sober-me is awake".

99% of the time, sober-me is glad I waited, and I cancel my reply. Because I realize that all I would be doing is stirring the pot, and that doesn't change minds or influence anyone. All it does is make me look bad, and slowly ruin the credibility of whoever or whatever I'm representing.

TRAs don't do that. There is no impulse control. In all likelihood, most of them are teens, physically or mentally due to arrested development. Humans need puberty for (among other things) our brains to develop certain pathways and networks, and they're eating blockers like pez. Young adults who did go through puberty still aren't going to have strong skills since they aren't getting any practice, and instead are being hugboxed and dumbed down.
