I actually do not alienate, but I do criticize when necessary.

I have a close relative who took the red pill and is all in on the manosphere. Sometimes he sends me, and I'm not even kidding, 30 messages in a day about all the manosphere content he watches; but we still hang out and talk. I don't comment on everything he sends me if it is something we have already debated over. If it is something different or something I find to be egregious, I do call him out on it.

To be fair, some days are harder than others to hear his bullshit, and I take a break and mute his messages for a while. I feel overall I still value him as a person and it is important to interact with him. However, I can also empathize with those that want nothing to do with someone who holds those opinions.

True, but that doesn't excuse that he promotes behaviors and thought patterns which reinforces reasons why people have certain attitudes towards men.

Or maybe if there were less young boys listening to Andrew Tate there wouldn't be that attitude towards men?

Me too! I am truly part of the lemmy community now.

The water is tested and 99% of the time it is probably safe to drink. But who knows how much of it you will drink before it is discovered (and then even longer to reveal) that there was an issue with the water.

Where I live has heavy agriculture and oil industry presence. People here are concerned over pesticides and random chemicals randomly seeping into the water system.
