Only time (and not really referring to tankies but wreckers more generally here) it's 100 percent worth doing is if they show up in person to your event to either protest it or fuck around with it or steal members (for example people showing up to union voting meetings encouraging votes against unionization because the UAW is shit, and tbf it is, but the response to that is not voting against unionizing jfc. ). I've seen that happen before, and you just shout at them till they leave. Only reason to really fight online is if you think joining the group genuinely harms people in which case you just let those grievances be known (like I've had multiple conversations with ex-PSL members and there is serious abuse that has occurred in chapters repeatedly, and in my own organizing have had to steer people away from them, WWP, SWP, SEP, IMT and a few random others. Joys of being in a big city where all the groups actually have members lol).
