Outside of the SCC I have found that many try to “hold the mods accountable” and few know how to do that when a power dynamic is involved, let alone the emotion they bring to that intent. This is noble at face value but the damage from failed attempts is great. There is more of an equal footing within the SCC that allows for calmer and more rational talks for this purpose.
We have many discussions ahead of us, most of which cannot be resolved through walls of text like this. The mods have shown me that they are genuine in their love for the sub but, over time and with enough corrosive intent from trolls and bad actors, that love can be twisted into something it should not resemble. There must be voices to counteract this over time.
It is my belief that many things need to change for our overall community to return to a peaceful and sustainable path and that the road to get those changes is arduous, tedious, and well worth it. We currently have the ability to resolve core differences with relatively little drama. From there we can talk about what we need to see from each other in order to come around on key topics.
We can discuss what information we need to convince outsiders to become insiders to this saga, and how to obtain that critical information. It is my belief we must slowly and carefully expand and support each other in the projects we undertake. We must decentralize while remaining connected both here and in our friend lists.
Nobody is entirely opposed, and few are even partially opposed, to this overall thought process. When approached with reason and humanity everyone is receptive.
lol lmao
The shitheads running that sub won’t ever give up power, and even if they did, what happens to all the apes who were banned?
They’ve been silencing people for nearly 3 years now. That’s a lot of people who would need to be unbanned.
Personally, I don’t buy the “stand alone complex” crap he’s pushing. I resent the leaders of this movement and I will make a point to never have anything to do with them ever again. In the future, anything they stand for I will stand against.
The only reason we’re on the same side right now is because I’m invested in the MOASS and I want to get paid.
There is no possibility for us to ever be friends. That bridge was burned when the SS mods chose to act like assholes and silence their supposed “movement” for 3 years straight. They aren’t leading this movement, they have just taken it hostage.
^ THAT Why should members of a subreddit have to sign up to a discord in order to be involved in the selection of a mod on their subreddit? This is like the Vogons in Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. “How could you not know that your planet was going to be bulldozed? The relevant form was hung in the Intergalactic Bureau of Space Administration’s office for the past two years!”
The people running the place have to work for the federal government. Only the feds could set up this level of compartmentalization.
Not to mention that the discord is a far bigger echo chamber that is much more tightly moderated than the subreddit. You can’t post any dissenting opinions there without being mobbed.
I get the pushback on it is wrong to sign up yet again for another place. The only reason I suggested it is so you can read the logs and decide for yourself how good or how bad they are. I didn’t want to share my perspective on how I think they are
