I disagree with OP's editorialized title.
As an avid video gamer, I find myself constantly encountering subtle and overt bigotry in most online games I play. I will always call them out for it, no matter how much whooping it incites from kids just eating their popcorn and enjoying the fight.
Ignoring them is how you let the Andrew Tates of the world win, because they're certainly not taking the high road by remaining silent about their beliefs.
A true lesser of two evils scenario, then. I'm sorry those are your options.
