MODERATORS
I think you should at bare minimum voice some opposition. It helps you reinforce why you believe the things you do and it shows the readers that this idea is present. We are where we are today because the smart people refused to engage and failed to get their side of the argument into public discourse.
If I open a comment section and its full of tankie opinions I have to comment because I dont want the majority of people who lurk to think lemmy is only tankies.
My favorite are the anarkiddies who will be the first to tell you that corporations and capitalist states are lying propagandists, but when you say something remotely positive about China or the USSR they start talking like a 1950s US History textbook written by the CIA.

"No. You're dumb. I refuse to elaborate further."
That's the only answer you should give them. More than that is wasted time.
Some people are just made for blocking.
The general public on games development. Sometimes even game developers on games development outside their usual sphere/scale. None of us are immune to Dunning-Kruger.
Yeah. They think it's me, I think it's them
My dad..... Ugh
I had the misfortune to run into one of those tankies I had heard about on here. They are like the extreme alt right. In that they go so far left they go right.
Like they literally blame feminism for Trump. It felt like talking to a maga. Making up their own definition of terms. Refusing to acknowledge actual definitions.
I didn't realize who it was at first then took the time to read the user name and was like . Ah. .. yes. Your reputation proceeds you. I should not engage with this individual.
Other people had made a post mentioning a few problematic users and this person had been mentioned and other people had chimed in with comments regarding said individual too. This was a while back but yeah...
MAGATS
So 0.2 people? Who are those decimals?
My pet peeve are the smug intellectuals.
