    and i hate everyone in this thread thinking laughing at them is the play here. they turn to their churches because their churches promise to help them and accept them. i’m sick of this performative leftist bullshit. things don’t get better by shaming the morons, they get better by feeding them and showing them another way. through galvanizing them against all our opressors.

    There’s a vast difference between mocking people in an echo chamber and doing it directly to their faces. You’re right that mocking someone never changed their mind, but as far as I’ve read the only thing that moves the needle, especially for people in a cult, is a close personal connection helping them. Internet comments are never going to change anything, so I say mock the poor dumbasses voting to shoot themselves in the foot (at best), or unempathetic racist shitheads (more likely), because it makes my day a little better at least.
