Good you haven’t! Everyone is better off not reading the discussions were they spout stuff like defending gulags since those “only killed few million people”. I do try to call them out when I see it, but these days I just mostly insult them when I can, so I can block whoever gets triggered and reveals themselves. I owe them nothing and they won’t get anything fruitful out of me since I’m not engaging in a way that allows them to spout even more propaganda, so it’s win-win for all. Also I get to insult tankies
Those are quite ok, the main boogeyman is the tankies.
I know many of them complain about the term “tankie”, but I doubt they’d prefer “the people and bots spreading russian and chinese propaganda” over it
I would, but even more, id prefer that you stay on topic instead of just resorting to ad hominem. if they say something untrue, show them to be lying.
Can’t really ad hominem when it’s not an argument in the first place. I’m insulting tankies
it’s not a logical argument, no. it is a rhetorical argument, though. and it’s bad faith.
Oh for sure it’s in bad faith, it pisses me off to see stuff like people defending China genociding tibetans
so call that out when it happens, but I’ve never seen that.
