I’m not sure you CAN wake normies up. They’re hylics. It’s unavoidable. That being said, e-politics are cringe. We do agree. And there’s a certain culture I see online that I don’t like. The culture is a right wing version of cancel culture that I would better describe as “takedown culture.” It’s finding one thing someone did that was out of line or is flawed and bringing that up over and over again in place of any kind of argument or anything constructive. It’s a combination of that, and once someone gets on your shitlist, no matter what they do, the most pointedly parsimonious interpretation of all facts gets used when analyzing their actions, up to and including the point of outright lying.

It’s not a direct inverse of cancel culture but I feel like the analogy is pretty strong. They’re not trying to build anything. They’re trying to take people down because they got called a faggot on the computer a year ago. I wouldn’t be surprised if this culture was sowed by the Feds.
