Trolls as attention-feeding entities that grow stronger with reaction and weaker with neglect, operating through repetitive patterns of insult, bait, and chaos

Psyche's stated policy of identifying, naming, and expelling trolls, accusers, and those role-playing as protagonists. Rather than engaging or feeding such behavior, Psyche documents it and 'sends it back' to the comment section. Framed as energetic efficiency rather than cruelty.

The show has a ritualistic approach to disruptive chat: document, name, and send back to the comment section. This suggests the show's space as a container where negative energy is named and expelled rather than fed.
