push people out of any spaces where they might make friends with progressive people, then obviously they resort to less wholesome spaces where they commiserate with people who have had similar experiences. Those echo chambers become the poaching grounds for extremist orgs to radicalize those people in large numbers.
“You kept calling us racist so we had no choice but to become racist”
Complete misrepresentation of what I said, but since you’ve been intent on missing the point this whole conversation then I’m not going to bother trying to get it through to you. Feel free to keep pushing successive generations of young people into the extremist camps, I’m sure that won’t come back to bite you on the ass.
It seems we’re having a lag anyway, because you seem to be stuck in an era from at least few years ago when you could rely on cheap clichés, virtue signaling, and confirmation bias to accuse any white guy of being racist for no reason at all to bait him into getting defensive so that you can use his defensiveness to double down on calling him racist. People see through that shit now, and you haven’t caught on yet.
And honestly, I really don’t care anymore. You’ve pushed so damn many potential allies over the edge that quite frankly it’s hard to sympathize. We cared about what’s right, we wanted to contribute to a good cause. You chose to use us as punching bags instead of working together. I hope you feel empowered, cause I’m focused on my own shit now.
I try to do the same, unless they’re being absolutely insufferable to the point where it makes my head spin, which this guy almost reached to be honest

I have them tagged as Canadian Troglodyte, for what it’s worth. This is par for the course for this douchebag.
Thanks, his antics were starting to get to me, but it’s nice to know I’m not the only one who sees through it. It helps cut through the gaslighting.
No problem, it’s why I started tagging people instead of blocking them lol.
