  • Sometimes that really is the only option, especially when they appear to be acting out of malice.

    Even on this very thread someone decided to start sea-lioning me, almost textbook. Disengage, report, block, and move on with life.

  • Yes, I understand that, but what I’m telling you that it’s a mistake to assume that everyone will process the information you find convincing in the same way that you did, and on top of that

    I don't assume that. In fact, I assume that many people will not be convinced by the information.

    Like, maybe cook them a killer vegan dish that has them drooling for a week, and offer to teach them how to make it if they’re interested.

    That falls under my purview of "presenting information." Those vegan dishes are part of my presentation of information. And of course I'm open to answering good faith questions.

    In summary, don’t just present people with the negative aspects of their behavior

    It isn't just the negatives of what they are doing. But also the positives of what I am doing.

    To be more clear, where the line for me is that I'm not going to tell people what to do (e.g. "don't eat meat") and am not going to get into an argument with them about it. I don't find these strategies effective for me, personally. Others may be able to debate the point more effectively, but I play to my strengths.

  • Moved here and haven't looked back.

    I do keep a Reddit account that is strictly used for informational/support type stuff (i.e. "help me figure out what type of widget I should buy for this task"). I avoid anything controversial on that account.
