Once again I weigh in on an issue no one asked me but I say yes insult without alienating your comrades. During the Sal terf saga my addition to any wander terfs was telling them to please eat shit, kept the please for civility and thought with the shit they spew constantly they wouldn't mind the taste so much.

To anyone reading I say try not use anything ironically like sexism or racism. Your joke will fail and or fall flat. If you want to be funny maybe word play or leftist inside jokes. Punch up not down and be mindful of others.

I guess also if another user calls you out just breath and calm down. Try not to escalate or double down. Revolutionary compassion and empathy should be a our foundations on the left even if you never read any theory at least this should do.
