    To do nothing, to be silent while they carry this on in some dark corner of a mostly defederated instance doesn’t feel right. I don’t like the idea that they can spew this garbage in private and pat themselves on the back. Judging by the scores, I’m not the only one. Do I think winter will ever vote blue or have a trans friend? No. But at least the echo chamber is a little less echoey.

      My best friend is trans. Maybe if you had stopped trolling, you would have realized that since I mentioned it. We hang out all the time with her friends, many of whom are trans.

      I have voted blue in the past. Had you paid attention, you would have known that. My favorite senator was a Conservative Democrat from Missouri. Ike Skelton. I also voted for Obama twice.

      Instead of trolling, try engaging in a conversation.

      I full agree with everything you said here. But I think it is going way too far to think that they will ever understand. They clearly get off on the idea of opposing leftist values for the sake of it.

      I’ll do my part just as you to stop this place from being an echo chamber. But assuming they’re not a troll, winter is too far in the deep end. They could lose everything, become a drug addicted homeless person spat on by the rich, brutalized by the police, and thrown in jail for existing and they’d still find a way to blame anybody but themselves and conservatism.
