@lina @mint if you read carefully he only dislikes "rage replying" which as far as I understand is when a person sees something they don't like and replies to it in a way nobody enjoys. how the fuck has he figured that
1. unpleasant people existing is a problem you can solve with platform design
2. unpleasant people existing is a problem you *should* solve with platform design
much like yourself, is beyond me
@menherahair @lina @mint You can't solve it, that's the issue. There will always be some retard that reads only one post from the whole thread and replies with "you are the truest example of cattle I've seen so far, if you think like that k thanks bye." It's an internet culture issue that been a thing since it's adoption. You can ban these people from your instance, but that changes nothing as their account will pop up somewhere else even more destined to shit up threads.

Prime example:

@phnt @lina @mint as much as I'd like to I wouldn't call having to exist with people on earth an issue and this is just an extension of that. as far as I'm concerned we're living in a blessed time with the most graceful solution ever conceived: they're posting their inane ramblings on some shithole on the internet, possibly on their own dime because the platform is community driven, and you can mute them if you're a pussy. there's nothing to fix!
@lina @mint @phnt well I know how, you fail at driving them out. at one point human life was easy, you throw the undesirable into the desert and he starves. then there were more open communities and he goes there, so they have to drive them out too and then he may starve. now we have internet and our wonderful untameable fediverse where any ideas can foster communities unless the gov intervenes, but they don't, in fact most of the world strives to provide egalitarian care.
there's only two correct approaches to social undesirables:
1. ignore
2. be cruel
then they starve and die. if they're not starving people are failing at the above or are in fact somehow desirable. now people around the world are taught daily to not do the above while we search for a miracle method that's more humane and probably doesn't exist so half the place is naturally ran by psychopaths and pedophiles
