Literally this entire instance. Don't get me wrong there are worse places out there but its basically Lord of the Flies up in this place. I am very sure nobody in charge is over the age of 21.
Yeah. 100%. Well... there are plenty of 18-year-olds running around the world whose chronological age is a lot older. But yes. It actually mostly doesn't read to me as malicious from this instance, it just feels like people who have never experienced being in a collaborative circumstance where they have to get along with people who they don't see eye to eye with or have real friction with and they have to cope with it. Or they have never been in some kind of environment where one person is "in charge" but also has to earn respect of people. Like their whole concept is "I've got the mod buttons, you do not, so shut the fuck up, this is what's what" and they've never experienced the aftermath when you do that to people who have ability to push back in turn.
I mean at the end of the day it's just a stupid web site, but yes in my opinion being able to have these communication tools and have them function well is important. Maybe I'm the weird one. I do think it matters.
these "anarchists" are ok with harassment and sexism as long as it is targeted towards who they perceive to be enemies. They have zero consistency in applying their "rules" and they hide behind "anarchism" to justify the same childish behavior they criticize other instances of doing.
Also absolutely. 100%. Them laughing at SoftestSapphic when she's trying to give some pretty pointed feedback on treatment of trans issues, and then banning her for being "pissy" / "shitty" because of it, really rubbed me the wrong way. I didn't like that at all. And then yes the hypocrisy of doing that while flopping around like a soccer player moaning about "abuse" because people gave downvotes to some of their precious content, is just extra icing on the bratty-adolescent cake.
