Virtual thread closure in effect:
If you think it should be closed, don't open it
If you are stupid enough to open it, don't bitching about it to the world. As in "I think this thread is shit and should be closed, but as long as I'm here, I'll just add to the shit..."

We don't close threads because they're shit, because every now and then, a little blue flower grows out of the shit. Sometimes not, and it's yellow instead,or it's a stupid pine tree. Sometimes, it's just shit, but you keep walking around it, and eventually it sinks into the ground.
We don't close threads because someone gets their panties in a bunch over it.
If that were a valid reason to close, I'd get rid of every thread about politics, religion, or what sort of behavior is advisable around small wild animals.
Some people try way harder than they have to to be assholes. It's the internet. Read the comments on YouTube, and you'll realize that some of those attention-starved hate whores* are here. It's just the way things are. If you like fighting with them, you're as much of an asshole as they are. Maybe more, since you're ripe for them or anyone like them who comes along next time.

*That wasn't meant to be about Rand Paul. (If he's the future of the "party of 'stupid'", we're gonna have to come up with an adjective.)
