Yep. I thought fighting the constant barrage of disenfranchisement was important during the election year (sigh). They were out in arms trying to disenfranchise as many progressive/leftists as they could. Fighting them was important to keep voters from throwing the bath out with the bathwater due to an imperfect reality.

Well, we lost. Now I can mute these pieces of shit who are gleefully watching the world burn and trolling with "it would have happened anyway under Harris!".

This thread has tripled my block list already, and it's going to be huge by the end of the month.

There’s no utility in spending time replying to users who are posting in bad faith

It's not about changing their minds, it's about keeping them from influencing others. But yeah, that obviously wasn't effective either.
