Is it wrong to greatly prefer expressing all political views in a borderline echo chamber such as Lemmygrad rather than ever try to engage with liberals on other platforms again?

There are only so many more braindead, agenda-fueled smug remarks I can deal with at this point and I've lost all hope of changing most of these people. Just this evening I commented a one sentence defense of China's foreign policy on reddit only to get every single one of my comments from the past week bombarded by a guy spamming Taiwan emojis and calling me a "CCP slave girl who should go to the Xinjiang rape camps". It's tiring
You're viewing a single thread.
No, I think the desire is understandable. Just look at how unproductive some of the comments here are to even engage with your question meaningfully. People willfully misconstrue and attack the person instead of the argument.
I don't think the problem goes away in an echo chamber, though they may be smaller. The goal posts people erect to show that they belong in the group are also aggravating. Trying to be the best buy bring most extreme, and so on. Groups drift over time.
All that said, you are not going to change anyone in an online discussion, that's functionally impossible. Discuss to learn.
