Ignoring fascists and other bad actors does not stop them from doing bad things and/or radicalizing others. This is a common complaint I see in online communities, and it's a flawed strategy that is a good way to lose ground to bad actors.
For the libs: I understand that hearing about current events involving bad actors that upset you may be annoying but please don't report them for that reason.
For the fascists: kill yourselves. You know what you're doing.
Nobody can tell what your motivation is online but the affect is still the same.
Here is a video essay that explains why ignoring fascists doesn't work. The entire alt-right playbook is worth a watch btw.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
