No one ever gets radicalized in these cases, hearing the same things from everyone they interact with thinking that everyone or at least most think the same way they do and they need to fix the situation while being encouraged to do so. Never happens.

could you explain how?

Step 1: Don't engage them, no room for their rhetoric.

You are to fuck off, and take your crypto and your blue line flags with you on the way out.

Do you understand my argument?

All I'm saying is that defedding from people like "tankies, alt-righters, edge lords" are fine, but because it's easy to miscategorise people into those categories (intentional or not) you could end up defederating from anyone you don't agree with, ending up in an echo chamber.

sure, you can block me if you don't agree with my opinions.

that would be kinda making an echo chamber for yourself though, so I wouldn't recommend that.
