This is an excellent analysis of the reasoning that led into this. Thank you for sharing.

Plenty of people are dismissing this as “ragebait,” which, sure. But like, what on earth is more rage-worthy than systemic rape culture and silencing of women?

There is definitely a time and place for tone policing. But that’s never the exact minute a woman expresses her lived experience in a way that actually grabs attention. ❤️

Thanks for the example.

Kbin users seeing who downvotes their posts is potentially an issue, but I don’t want to discourage downvoting bad or harmful content for just that reason. The end goal is that bad content gets removed and offending users acted on. So if a Kbin user is abusing the system to harrass or abuse, they should likewise reported and banned.

Yeah I agree, I think that you might be just applying your correct opinion to the wrong conversation 👍

I already see people running with the same rage bait shit again and this is not the place for it. As for you, thank you for sharing your experience and I am sorry it was greeted with such toxicity. :)

For the rest of y’all, please see this and this comment which explains how this is a bad faith argument and be civil to one another.

This post is about combating harrassment. If you absolutely must discuss the nuances of feminism in relation to xenophobia, I ask you to make a post elsewhere about it.

You are absolutely entitled to that. In fact I quite agree with you on many levels.

None of that makes harrassment okay. Which is the topic of this discussion.

I think the key is to take whatever space is necessary not to make the problem worse for mods. None of those verbs are requirements but rather suggestions to improve the quality of your report.

I welcome any changes to the language to make that more clear though for sure. 👍

I would push back and say that if something is already so bad it’s worth reporting, it’s not weaponization to also simply downvote.

Unless you were already weaponizing the report feature which is pretty much not a good thing lol.

Some instances allow a poster to see exactly who downvoted them.

Source or example? 😧 This is new to me.

Encouraging downvotes was a suggestion from the mods, but I will take this into account.
