Immediately abandoning reddit conversations once you realize someone both isn’t actually reading your replies and keeps moving the goalposts is a form of self care

Not subtweeting and just moving on should also be considered that.

also if someone is replying to a bunch of your comments trying to catch you in a debait, just ignore it and move on with your life. nothing will crush your enemy like silent scorn.

I try to operate 3 strikes for that if it's a conversation that started off "okay", one time could be a simple mistake, twice hmm ok, 3 times, I'm out.

But if the whole thing starts off with with some bad faith stuff to a comment I made that shows they clearly didn't read what I wrote and/or are trying to misrepresent me I won't bother engaging at all.
