Dealing with obvious troll: Jury or MIRT?

The other day, I ran into a obvious troll post (poster's 1st post) that obviously qualified for MIRT. I clicked "alert abuse" in the post and it went to the Jury System.

I checked the reason: "Does not support Democratic values"...

Was this the correct way to go about this? Or should I have tried to directly locate the MIRT team?

Thanks

I haven't looked for the post, but as I recall, Skinner explained that hidden posts from a low count poster get special attention.

You can also message a member of the MIR team.

There is a list of them in a post in Announcements. Check to see you are looking at the latest one.
