Once they are gone you realize they have not only lost the ability to think critically, but they have a completely different set of information on what constitutes reality.
I’ve seen super smart people become a bunch of parroted talking points, and justification for opinions or actions that would have made them laugh if they had heard somebody say the same thing 5 years earlier, before they were lost.
It’s sad to be unable to have a genuine conversation where you discuss opinions and get interesting ideas with people you’ve known For decades. In the end, it’s talk about work, vacations, kids, shared memories.
I wish there was an answer to rekindle the interesting, thoughtful people I knew. But as far as I can tell those people are completely gone, almost as if they have been taken over by a bot on certain subjects.

Kinda feels like it would be completely rational for members to stop engaging with Yoho altogether.
And if you are/were like me and you can't/couldn't resist, put them on ignore.
Until the moderation team recognizes they are a detriment to the community, the community should proactively disengage.
