I think the approach that is sometimes used of dramatic self-important essays is off-putting. Yes, I know, it’s not my role as a cis lesbian to tone police legitimate grievances and how they are articulated. But sometimes, it seems to foster an atmosphere that is reminiscent of those medium articles from Warren surrogates after she claimed he said a woman couldn’t be president, or IRL drama in DSA chapters that spills over into the internet. Simply an observation - I think the essay posting is a way to get user’s attention, and perhaps sometimes that is warranted, but it sometimes seems like a direct message to the user who’s done wrong or a post in user union may be more appropriate, so as not to get people reacting as though the person posting is a wrecker.
Here is a post that addresses an issue that I thought was done in a thoughtful, concise, and persuasive way that fostered a dialogue. I feel like this is a good approach
