        I saw a guy literally posting pretty much all of those unironically today. I almost started to respond and then thought better of it. I don’t mind engaging with some liberals in good faith if I think they are just misguided, but that was absolutely a lost cause.

          The only thing you can do with someone like that is ruthlessly dunk on them for the benefit of an audience

        That’s exactly it. “We hate Reddit and its centralized, surveillance-capitalism model! Let’s move to Lemmy! Wait what? Lemmy is built by COMMUNISTS? And they don’t uncritically regurgitate NATO propaganda? OH NO!”
