Dunking on them is one thing, but some go on multi-page arguments with them. Just shows it's just two sides of the same coin with some people. Both want attention and to argue over nothing.

Because they're funny and CE isn't serious at all. It's just the same old posters having the same old arguments over and over for years, so the trolls coming along to break up the monotony is entertaining.

Blocking is for the fragile, insecure or susceptible people.
Refusing to see something does not make it less real. It only conditions one to a false bubble of safe-space comfort. undermining their maturity.

I don't get involved in politics so I have no idea who they are. Maybe I'm right wing and I just don't know it.

This here is a standard example of what is known as "bait". Notice the insults that aren't directly pointing to anyone, and how a well known method to countering trolls is being used as a negative in order to encourage sincere engagement.

But of course, blocking is a common feature on many sites for a very good reason.
