MODERATORS
I don't derive pleasure from their ignorance. From that I derive migraines. It's specifically their failure to gain traction here on lemmy that I must admit to a degree of schadenfreude.
But for real, I've lost dear friends to this movement. At this point I've simply recognized that the only way to save those people is to be patient and keep an open door in case they do realize they're being duped. It's that or drive them further into the cult.
Thankfully lemmy is not putting up with their nonsense. I don't actually care if they get banned or not. I can only hope that seeing that their rhetoric only trends in spaces known to be bot-ridden and algo-driven will cause the most rational of them to wake up.
Hear hear.
