The community is quite capable of dealing with actual “bs” by downvoting it into oblivion.
I disagree that the community is doing anything remotely close to a good job of distinguishing bs from non-bs via downvotes. [The evidence is that the community does not find the bulk of burner-poster posts to be “bs”] is a true statement, and is revealing the problem.
It is also very easy for users who do not want to engage with burner posts to skip on past them.
This is straight false; they’re showing up on all sorts of posts WAY more than they used to.
