Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

A community for comrades to chat and talk about whatever doesn't fit other communities

If someone is very opinionated after you said your point, do you keep at it, or do you walk away?

IRL? Sometimes I can get very passionate. One time my friend was egging me on to talk about Xinjiang because apparently he'd rather ruin a friendship than enjoy a trip to the city. Another time I spent at least half an hour on Discord trying to tell a friend China isn't literally Satan and later learned he still thought poorly of me because of that a year later.

Online, I will give a genuine response once or maybe twice. Usually they're unreceptive so I stop responding after that.
