Edit:2 words, flow

Well, I think that can apply as a general rule: don't engage with people that show lethal or physical hostility to you in conversations.

group that is most at risk

This could apply to everyone, depending on location and nationality, but I understand.

acts of abhorrent beliefs

This could mean anything outside of our self-built echo chambers, but I do agree to be more cautious around those that show physical or hostile language towards you or others.
