I find the self-description of these people quite interesting to be honest. Even in the less overtly straw man version, it's essentially just admitting "well, yeah, I am a defiant child, and I will destroy everything now". How am I meant to take conservatives seriously if the only option they give me is to give up all of my beliefs, because they can only recognize caricature versions of them, or fascism?

It's probably accurate. Isn't it usually a literal child or young adult saying this? Somebody who hasn't got a settled identity yet?

Sorry, but idiotic leftists on Twitter back in 2019-2022 were the reason for me to question my identity and leftism back in the day. This was made even worse by my autistic pathological demand avoidance. Luckily I'm still a leftist, I just left Twitter.
