IMO its 100% equal proportion blame for the tribalism. We're responding to eachother because we responded to eachother. Gotta break the chain. We don't need to get people what they deserve. We need to give them the help or second chance we would always give ourselves.

Your good intentions are falling on mostly deaf ears around here, my friend. Most of the dregs posting in these threads aren't looking for a way forward and aren't open to having real dialogue or working together toward solutions. The keyboard warriors of OT just come here to get their jollies from expressing and projecting their deep-seated feelings of inadequacy and lashing out at others as a coping mechanism. It's a vicious cycle of attacking others to help build themselves up and reinforce the image they've created for themselves in their minds. To them, anything is better than having to look introspectively and acknowledge the demons within. I think the hall monitors here just let it go because they realize it's a form of therapy for some of these people that might otherwise off themselves if left alone with their own self-hatred. It doesn't matter if you come back in a week, a month, or a year from now it will be the same people saying the same shit using different words, memes, or accounts because they are stuck in a prison they built for themselves, while they unknowingly hold the only key.

You may have already transcended above this plane of egotism and self-loathing. All you can do now is hope they eventually get the help they need outside of the forums before it's too late.
