There have been some rather active discussions about political leanings on the internet and the behaviors often exhibited by members of these political groups that rightfully should not be tone policed. However, I would also like for you to take a second and consider how individuals who happen to share these political leanings but do not exhibit the behavior you are calling out might feel accessing or interacting with content on Beehaw.
I think one way to verbalize this is: In the absence of evidence to the contrary, assume the other person is acting in good faith. Try to interpret their statements generously - perhaps English is their second language so they don't see how a word they used may be offensive, or perhaps they are simply not eloquent about a particular topic and don't know the correct vocabulary. Maybe they are young and have only been exposed to the viewpoints in their small, less diverse area, and need a little (gentle) education. And consider that even if the person you're discussing with does not fit into those categories and will not be swayed, maybe someone else who is reading the post you're making does, and maybe your words will resonate with them.
However, I think it's also important to acknowledge the fact that it's not the job of marginalized people to educate the dominant group, so it's dependent on the entire community to be willing to both listen and educate (while not speaking over those of the marginalized group who are willing to make the effort to speak).
