Clearly you don't know what sealioning means. Anything can be weaponized, even "just asking questions."

Sealioning - a harassment tactic under the guise of sincerity by trolls in online discussions to pester others with repeated disingenuous questions and persistent requests for evidence for basic claims, aiming to erode the patience and goodwill of targets to make them seem unreasonable.

Oh yeah that happened to me the other day. I usually just call them a kike at that point and get on with my day.

It's still communist victim mentality however.

It's got nothing to do with /s/Communism or /s/Victimhood. It's recognizing that someone is a timesuck intentionally wasting your resources and good will with stupid questions and circular banter. Do better than just name-calling, call out their bullshit accurately.
