You are meeting their hateful delusions by sinking to their level.
90% of them arent even thinking about the actions they’re taking with any real depth. Treating the quiet ones the same as the loud ones allows them to sink further and further into their delusions, because honestly they just dont know any better. Yelling in their face about how they’re nothing but inhuman monsters isnt going to change their minds. And considering their dominance, if you don’t change their minds these problems will continue.
I’m not saying that you shouldn’t protect trans rights or anything like that. I’m just saying that dehumanizing around 30% of the country is a bad idea and is completely counterproductive.
As another reply said, they’re dehumanizing themselves. Disagreeing on policy is one thing, but when one side is burning books and closing research labs and treating a charlatan’s blatant lies as the Gospel truth because their worldview is fundamentally incompatible with factual reality, there’s no reasoning with that. Debate doesn’t fucking work at that point; you need a cult deprogramming!
“They don’t think like that. You can’t keep claiming 2+2=4 and that the clear sky is blue; you have to meet their hateful delusions halfway!”
