Do we fuel the fire of hate that burns within some racist people when we respond to clear incitful questions?

Question

I think we do. People who pose vile, incitful questions do so to incite anger & reaction. They disgusie their hate by dressing it loosely as a question. They survive by answering a minimum amount of questions to get the points which allow them to continue postings questions. Reporting them through the 'red flag' system is pointless, they reappear with a different name and the same trash.
I enjoy this forum, I learn from an opposing point of view, I enjoy reading/thinking/answering questions posed on racism/religion Etc it is through dialogue that we find peace, tolerence & growth as a human race. I hasten to add that I am not talking about controversial questions, I am talking about questions posed to incite pure anger E.G. should I wear a veil saying 'no white infidels' which was posted recently along with a vile write up.
From this point on, I will noty dignify these questions with any response. If the fire has no fuel, it will die.

Will you join me ?

Its a shame that I cannot identify the users or the questions that would clarify the postings I am referring to. These are postings full of hate and no amount of writing will influence their view point. The questions usually fire people up so much (which of course is what they are after) that their answers become abusive and full of hate. I just get concerned that this hate then festers in people and we increase the divide between people rather than bridging the gap. Every time they ask a question they get about 40 replies before the question is removed.

Answer 1

I generally bypass pointless questions, but will respond sometimes. I want to offer a different viewpoint. It helps me to find ways to articulate why I feel a bigotted view is wrong, and sometimes someone posts something that offers me a vocabulary to use against small-minded thinking.

Answer 2

Incitful

Answer 3

I agree with the previous answers.. Sometimes a soft kind answer can help to clear the air. It is a good idea to say a short prayer before answering. Confrontation doesn't work. Sometimes you may think that you are not getting through to the person, but you may be. You just never know. God bless you.
