What's the best way of dealing with Maga hatred, white power, genocide denial and other things you see a Lemmy user espousing? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

If I ignore/block them, it allows them to continue unchallenged. I hate getting into it with them, since they are a baseline idiot.

I guess that's it. I saw a person with a 6 month account spouting garbage, was gonna block but thought perhaps that wasn't morally responsible. Wondering what the options were.

Nah, I don't really care THAT much. I was just pointing out the hypocrisy of vast majority of Lemmy users. I don't really care one way or the other. I'll continue to post what I want, and I'll continue not taking any of it seriously.

It's legit like posting Raiders stuff to a Broncos-leaning forum on a site that promises they welcome everyone when they don't. lol

People being mad makes no difference to my real world at all.

I'm still retired at 50. I'm still fit and healthy. I still spend awesome days in the park and hiking in the beautiful countryside every morning and evening. Life is awesome, even tho Lemmy says the world is gonna end soon. (it won't end anytime soon)

Go Raiders, by the way. Go Knights. :)

You care so little that when somebody finds a hole in your philosophy that you feel compelled to remind them of how little you care. Something keeps bringing you back to shout into the downvoting void.

That's how you read that?!

Dude, I have no "philosophy" and don't feel "compelled" to do anything. This isn't Star Trek or a legal courtroom. It's fucking Lemmy. lol

I'm responding to your comments.

So when I stop posting, you'll stop posting? What brings you back to a community (all of Lemmy as you say it) that actively rejects you?
