    I didn’t see what you were responding to, but I’m very close to doing this. Yesterday I unsubbed from just about all the .ml communities I was subbed to. They’re impossible to talk to and have gotten incredibly nasty. They just start indignantly name-calling immediately, there’s no real engagement anymore. I consider myself to be extremely left wing, but I also live in the real world. They are insufferable.

      I’m blocking a bunch of .world communities and “power users” because of how toxic they are. The same stupid memes over and over insulting people who don’t want to vote for a pro-genocide candidate, condescending attitudes, calling people tankies/bots/shills/Russians etc. I don’t consider that “real engagement”. I consider it self-congratulatory preaching to the choir. No wonder some people are hostile to that kind of nonsense.

        This is exactly the kind of crap I’m talking about. You are literally the first and only person who has ever called me right wing, because I objectively and genuinely hold far left beliefs, and I always have. You don’t know me, and since you obviously don’t want to engage in a good faith conversation, your trolling means nothing to me.
