I Have Something to Say
"Ignore negative people. They feed on your reaction and if they see you being affected by what they do/say, they will keep doing it."

Agreed, but sometimes I enjoy being negative with them. I feel detached from the scenario, and I sometimes see them get invested, which makes it all the more enjoyable for me.
About 5 minutes into any argument, I realise it's stupid, but addictive. The words don't bother me, I feel numb to them, because most of them follow a pattern of dissent, and it's usually similar across the board. When you deal with one of these people, it's rare you'll find another who will have anything surprising to add to the game.

@SW-User I find it amusing when strangers approach me with spite; I see them as 2-dimensional shadows, projecting themselves through the lens of their trauma. I find it difficult to spend my own time telling strangers "fuck you" as an opener, as it just makes me look weak, and lacks meaningful conveyance.
If I approach a stranger, I generally tend to provide a rational case. It fascinates me when people come out of the gate berating others, and makes me wonder what they're really trying to accomplish.
