    Sure, I'm just wondering what most effectively breaks through the unrelated shit-talk. If the posters find it compelling, how do I know the lurkers don't, and vice-versa.

        You can do it like I did: make one post, copy-paste it when it's relevant, mute replies and never look at the thread again.

        When every single time someone screams "China bad" there is at least one person protesting it, a more open-minded person starts to doubt the official narrative, even if only by a little bit. I basically got exposed to left-wing ideas for the first time from the few people who bothered responding to these idiots.

        I'm not saying posting is praxis, but...

      You don't. Make a couple easily digestible, generic posts citing one or two sources, copy-paste them when appropriate, mute replies, and move on hoping you at least planted a seed in somebody's mind.

      For example: I wrote a short post calling Adrian Zenz a hack and citing his book about how "Gender equality is the work of the Anti-Christ" and linking to this 2018 video of Collin Powell's chief of staff talking about how the US government could use Uyghurs to destabilize China. I also mention how the Uyghur population grows faster than the Han population and how they were exempt from the one-child policy when it was still in effect.

      What response do they have to this? No clue, I have never read one.
