  • Nah, honestly, I agree. No sarcasm or anything. I’ve seen a lot of you recently, going around and calling out mods and admins for their bad takes. I think this is a great service to the rest of us who don’t have the time and inclination to do so.

    It is not your responsibility to do so, but so long as you are doing it, I appreciate it. I’m sure many others do as well. Community leaders need to be held to a high standard and in order for that to happen someone has to check them about it. We aren’t well organized here and we don’t have a method for that beyond people just like you crawling the mod logs and making noise where it’s warranted.

    Thank you.



  • The internet is a different place than it used to be. These days every third person you see might tell you the California fires are caused by having too many black folks in the movies and be completely sure of themselves that this is a fact. It is no longer safe to assume sarcasm when you see someone say something ridiculous.

    And if you just laugh and agree with it (sarcastically) or ignore it, then you’re going to get new people seeing this for the first time, not getting that it’s sarcasm, seeing it get agreed with or at least not refuted, and now you have two people that believe this mess. Rinse and repeat. 4chan is basically a case study for this sort of thing.
