It’s unbelievable how vocal the minority of conservatives on reddit have suddenly gotten in the one sub where a large demographic of important voters often interact. Hmmm. Coincidence?

I didn’t read this as policing anyone tbh. Sounds more like the person is saying we need to remain open to prevent ourselves from becoming as bad as those we aren’t open to. Makes sense to me to be honest.
Still, I understand others may just not want to join in with these discussions. That’s obviously an individual decision.
Cue some downvotes for not being a ‘buy yer pitchforks’ comment.
Edit. Which bit of those comments was castigating people? I’m tired and maybe I’m just missing something.
Thank you. Yea. this exactly.
The reason I urge discussion rather than anonymous retribution vis a vis downvote brigadeing is it reinforces group think. Echo chambers.
If you can discuss a problem it’s easy enough to dismantle a LOT of the rhetoric thrown around by hate groups… but if you simply meet intolerance and hate with the same nothing good comes of it.
OP, like many, may have their heart in the right place but is, as far as I am concerned, virtue signaling and nothing more.
