    "Never wrestle with pigs. You both get dirty and the pig likes it."

    To see what things trend towards, look at Wikipedia. There are people on that site voluntarily putting in 80 hour weeks just to shit post/edit political diatribes. They undoubtedly delude themselves into thinking they're changing the world, but it's likely had a zero if not negative effect. The negative deriving from the fact that political stuff tends to backfire once you go overtly partisan. See: Trump being elected likely not in spite of the nonstop negative media coverage of his campaign, but because of it.

    When people of any ideology become sufficiently radicalized, they will out-radical you, by definition.
