    Stay away from the political communities and don’t feel like you need to correct people when they spout out political bullshit.

        Then keep it in the politics and news communities, and don’t be surprised when you are kicked. You don’t go protesting at the KKK meeting expecting to change minds just like you don’t try to go to !politics@lemmy.ml expecting to change minds. If you are looking for real discussion then don’t go to a community that is hostile to the discussion you want to have.
