Then anyone can effectively destroy a newsgroup by flooding it with hate
speech and getting the regulars to argue about it. I can killfile Rick
(and I have). I can't killfile every thread he posts in.

No condescension intended.

You are a fake Christian Rick. True Christians have "faith" that what they
believe is true; they don't claim, like you, based on nothing but
ill-conceived conjecture wrapped up in pseudo-scientific nonsense, to know
for a fact that what they believe is actually true. You are destroying
people's faith, fake Christian. You are a traitor to your kind.

That seems to be the intent for C, but the wording in the C standard is
flawed, though the intent is stated explicitly in a non-normative
example. (We discussed this in comp.lang.c and comp.std.c in 2012.)
