I think you have a super healthy view of this dilemma through your experience. As a person who has experienced the worst Down's has to offer with a very close relative, i can't imagine a happier thing they could have told my mother than, "your child doesn't have to be born with down's syndrome".
Due to religion, terminating the pregnancy was never an option, so a set of cosmic dice was spun in how positive or negative this experience would be. Let me tell you right now, I wouldn't wish my family's experience on anyone, and that breaks me apart to say more than I'm willing to admit.
But he had Russian backing, he was on the apprentice, all those things are true. So if they weren't true he wouldn't be who he is. It's a bit like saying JK Rowling wouldn't be famous without Harry Potter. Like... duh.
So if Trump wasn't the candidate that trump is, he wouldn't have won? I mean he was Trump tho.
I mean you said it yourself, answer is obvious. Peace!
Naw, they shitty, horrible kids with bad opinions, but if I felt as strongly as you, and had a much free time, (my god i wish i had your time), I'd spend the same time repping this place and less time trying to gentrify it into another political war zone. But by all means dehumanize these stupid kids until you only see an enemy to safer defeat.
I choose quarantine over spending yours days documenting internet morons.
Edit: I'm so stupid, I just realized that's the problem. I only have time to be annoyed by this shit to the point where I post about it cause I have all this time on a vacation. Whereas this is what you spend ALL your time doing. I'll be gone from needling you in a few days, you'll remain here as a super goofy and chill dude!
Thank you for the context so you can see how chill and goofy you are in your "fight against fascism" aka the kids who built and populated this platform initially.
edit
A user in that thread actually made points i 100% agree with about the hypocrisy of using this platform in general with your opinions on it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, a piefed developer specifically called you out for the same reason.
Really, is that the vibe you think you bring to the table? I would have said a steady stream of argument bait. You usually don't see chill goofy people maintaining entire threads of personal callouts. That's just an imo tho!
Jesus, if british comedy didn't exist, people would think English is just for joyless, shitty, jerks
Neither, they're giving an anecdotal example of the effects of what I previously noted.
Germany took in a ton of refugees (migrants is the wrong word), some percentage of which have has extreme trouble moving into a very different culture, it was a huge culture shock for everyone and it had led to problems inside the country that are fueling this hatred.
Not fucking rocket science.
Naw, just move them into publicly traded military contractors not named Boeing. You'll be making money like its crypto and you're on the inside.
