There are 3 steps to counter a baiter
You need to identify a bait first. It's pretty simple. Anyone who is being excessively toxic for no reason at all, is baiting. If you find yourself getting angry at a comment, it's most likely a bait and you don't need to waste your energy on it.
After you have identified a bait, there is only 1 correct way to handle it. JUST. IGNORE. IT. Any kind of comment you make in response to it, is just giving the baiter the attention they crave. Instead of replying to it and arguing with someone, just move on and let the thread die out on its own. Someone called your team/region trash ? No need to defend, just move on.
Try to remember the names of accounts that you've already identified as baiters and make sure to ignore all posts from them in the future.
