That's definiely the biggest thing I "advanced" from earlier on. Fighting others on the internet doesn't change their mind, nor is it really speaking to anyone who actually is in control. There will always be shills and haters and trolls, but that's the noise you need to filter through on the internet if you really want to seek the truth or find solidarity and start taking action.

Fighting that base instinct of "I need to call this guy out for how BS this is" was definitely a much harder issue for me than I care to admit last decade.
