It's already too late for that. Without assessing why it happened on Reddit and how it should be stopped, there is no reason to believe it would not be reproduced here. It was not assessed, let alone stopped, and thereby has been reproduced.
I mean this more on an instance moderation level. It's not just "monke brain neuron activation", it is a culture of ignorant chauvinism and low-effort engagement-farming
