Okay, if you feel embarrassed do something about it. No one's going to stop arguing just because you feel embarrassed. Furthermore, the reason people are bashing people on ml is because their collective behavior has been atrocious. Here's some things you could try:

  1. Advocate for a culture of better inter-instance conduct between ml and other platforms (this will likely get you ridiculed and if it ever works, it won't be soon.)
  2. Get on an instance that isn't as hostile (highly recommended)
  3. Leave the platform (this will produce the most immediate and thorough results)

Edit: ah, look at that, the Russians woke up and the downvotes are pouring in.
