Derek Powazek 🐐This says more about me than mastodon, but at this point in my life, when I'm tempted to reply to someone to disagree, I just unfollow them instead. It's better for my mental health.
SLCW💥@fraying If you unfollow everyone who expresses an opinion you disagree with, you will end up in an uncritical echo-chamber. That's basically how we ended up with MAGA. I don't see how that's beneficial to your mental health.
Jason Brown@slcw kinda proving the point by example here, bub
@slcw someone said that for their own personal mental health at this stage of their life, they find it better to disengage than have a public argument with someone.
You responded to that they should not do this for their own well-being, because it will essentially turn them MAGA.
I actually do feel this kind of reply is part of mastodon's culture. I'm not really a fan.
