This is a genuine question, as every time I have an argument about this with someone they bring a point so utterly stupid that it leaves me stumped...

I worked with a guy who spent half of his time saying some red pill shit. I mostly shrugged and ignored him and focused on my work.

When he exploded like a powder keg and was fired, he tried to reach out to get a reference. I ignored him then too. It went from "Hey you're a great friend can you do this" to "You F*** MF all things I did for you?!"

Ghosting these people, fully disengage, cut them out the moment you can is honestly the only way.
