Definitely needs a block-size limit increase

Which effectively does nothing in the case of an attack. A block size limit increase does not prevent these types of attacks.

The problem is that some people (e.g. Lauda) instantly dismiss anyone who tries to have a reasonable discussion with them as being a shill, troll, or whatever.

Disagreeing is one thing, refusing to listen to reason and evidence is another.

On /r/bitcoin you can't even mention non-core clients without your posts or comments being removed.

Censorship is present on /r/btc.

This is just a spam attack on the network, nothing more.

Correct.

Luckily 'btc' has less google seraches than 'bitcoin' , so most newbies will more likely join /bitcoin subreddit after their first google search.

/r/btc is very toxic and should be avoided in any case, especially for new users.
