They'll notice if you complain about it, chide you for "sneering at the community"and imply that you're simply falling prey to some cognitive bias or prejudice.

I've seen it gradually picking up speed ever since Snowden and the death of Aaron Swartz. Trump and Biden's elections were inflection points as well, pointing to a large influx in alt-right and conspiratorial posters from 4chan and Reddit.
I'd strongly suggest getting a plugin or userscript that lets you block users, and start doing so aggressively. Confronting the problem, or even pointing it out, falls afoul of the guidelines (at the very least it isn't considered "substantive") and will only eventually get you filtered or banned.
