Objection, Your Honour! This is speculation.

See, I’m torn. On one hand, I feel like this ‘us vs them’ mentality contributes to the sort of tribalism that ultimately results in movements like MAGA popping up. If these people can only operate in MAGA-friendly spaces, they’ll rarely speak to anyone who disagrees with them, and will have no reason to reflect on their worldview.
Then I read the news. If current events aren’t enough to convince them that they’re misguided, I’m not sure that anything will.
I’m not sure I know what the answer is, but it’s been an interesting discussion.

That’s fair, I can definitely understand that position and agree with you on the NK apologists.
From my point of view, I think it’s more productive to interact with people I disagree with, in the (possibly naive) pursuit of changing their minds. If people are kicked out for their views, I’d imagine many of them will just double down and act like a martyr. I’m not saying we shouldn’t call these people out and downvote them, that’s why that function exists right? But maybe once in a while, something that we argue will resonate with them.
Of course there are limits to that approach, and this all hinges on the other person arguing in good faith. Based on the OP’s post history, I’ll admit that I may be barking up the wrong tree in this case.

In what way did they troll me? Did somebody call them a fag or not? If so, I don’t care what their justification was, that person is an asshole.

Man, I don’t like MAGA either. I think they represent pretty much everything that’s wrong with society today…
But for a community that talks so often about disliking echo chambers, it really seems like most Lemmy users want an echo chamber.

As others have pointed out, anyone who has this strong of a reaction to something so inconsequential must be a deeply unhappy person. It sucks to suck.
Also, anyone who calls someone a ‘fag’ is a complete fucking moron. I doubt things will improve for them with so few brain cells to work with.

Seems like a needlessly condescending reaction to a simple statement, but go off I guess.

- Comment on HELP! Im looking for a game like CIV 6 where the point is to go to war 5 months ago:
Crusader Kings 3 is my favourite game like this. I wouldn’t say the point is to go to war, but it’s a pretty big part of the experience. Has a lot of DLC but you can definitely have a ton of fun with the base game if you don’t want to commit to that.
- Comment on Qobuz reveals how much it really pays per stream, and I want to see more of this transparency to help us spend money more ethically 6 months ago:
I’ve been using Qobuz for a couple of years and I love it. Great audio quality, has 90% of any music I’m looking for, and seems to be far less morally bankrupt than many alternatives.

I follow gaming news pretty closely and I’ve never even heard of this one. Wouldn’t be surprised if the low engagement, at least in part, comes down to poor marketing.
