  • They have more time and resources as many of the challenges are spun off and subcontracted to their cronies. And they don't especially care if things grind to a halt, that's also a win for them, they can play victim to the public with it and scream about how they really want to get on with running a government.

  • The truth is, they don't care how poorly written it is, they're just trying to flood the zone with stuff, and they win no matter the outcome. If it's not challenged, they have policy, if it is challenged, it occupies time and resources and most importantly, if it's challenged unsuccessfully, they have legal precident.

  • When it comes to moderating, we want to cultivate an environment where queer people feel welcome, but the point where we differ from Ada is not being allowed to respectfully disagree. As far as we're concerned, that person didn't break any of our rules.

    My concern at this point hinges on what constitutes "respect" and what things are tolerable to disagree about. Particularly with the backdrop of a society that sees disagreeing with my gender as respectful disagreement.

    Don't get me wrong, we're not gonna start tolerating MAGA shit or anything, we just don't want people to be afraid of getting ejected from the community over a relatively mild take or for committing wrongthink.

    That really becomes a question of how far is too far, while everyone is subjected to potentially harmful takes because they're not overtly hateful. That's the thing that burned a lot of us out on Reddit.

  • Years back, when I was working helpdesk and was on overtime, I traveled to visit my long-distance girlfriend. The first night, I was so tired that I quickly fell asleep. Apparently, in my sleep, I kept asking her for her username so that I could log the ticket.

  • Ultimately, I feel like people take a singlular moment view of guns for self-defense as well, without considering how the apparatus of the state will react. It doesn't matter if I can defend myself in the moment if the state is going to try to lock me up for it.
