Argument about why an instance doesn’t want to federate with another instance that’s devoted to political trolling. Apparently that kind of behavior is simply a core tenet of the belief system, and to criticize it is to reject the whole ideology.

Yeah. Well, kind of. One of the hallmarks of the people I think are getting a paycheck for it is that they don’t really seem to give a shit whether the stuff they are saying makes sense or is believable. They might go back and forth for a long time, but they don’t get invested in it, it’s just “here’s why we all think Kamala Harris is an asshole, obviously” and then on to the next comment.
Eh. This particular argument caused me to flee in alarm within the first few comments.
It did actually inspire me to look up whether a massive argument I had with one of the lemmy.ml people some time ago was Cowbee or not (if it had been, it would have been a key insight as to what made him tick). Alas, it was not. Sometimes I enjoy talking with these people (I think I actually have had some extended talks with Cowbee about Communism, which were fine), but this one I think both people were focused so much on minutiae that it quickly became unbearable.
