One minute you’re doing the downward dog, the next you’re listening to conspiracy theories about Covid or the new world order. How did the desire to look after yourself become so toxic?

    Engaging people like that is the only way to make them less extreme.

    Tolerating people like that is the best way to let them chip away at and destroy a decent tolerant society.

      Not tolerate - engage.

      You challenge them, maybe just tell them what they’re saying is wrong, ideally you gently prod them to acknowledge conflicts in their ideology.

      We have to offer them a path back to acceptance or they’ll always be on the other side, ever growing in number
