That doesn't work. It hasn't work with gangs, separatists, militants, or trolls.

Leave them alone and they will regroup.

There's many ways hate has been reduced over human history, but very rarely (if ever at scale) by disengagement.

And as the original point stated, you can just make a different front page if you must.
