Wholeheartedly agree. Admins on this site seem to do whatever they want based on how they feel in the moment with impunity. It’s almost as if we need a system of user created expectations to make them accountable for their reactionary bullshit hmmm. Or maybe a way to replace them... just spitballing.
Love your thoughts I’d have never thought of that!
This shit is exhausting. We need clear user created expectations for mods/admins and we need elections
It’s been proposed and promised for so long though. I want us to work together for a plan for it, I’m not saying we just throw up a straw poll and have at it.
That’s not what I’m advocating for, we were promised elections and they haven’t happened a single time. I get what you’re trying to say though, that does make sense.
I think if the site had elections and put forth clear expectations for what we’d expect from the team it would only improve this place. I get what you’re saying though, it might be risky.
Apparently asking for something promised since the site’s inception makes me... CIA?
I completely agree. It’s part of what drew me here in the first place.

I prefer to label myself as a Marxist. If there was a more concrete movement in my country that aligned with my views I would go for that but until then I think fringe left political labels only alienate people who have ingrained knee jerk reactions to words like “anarchist” and “communist.” Labels are dumb anyway but until I find an actual revolutionary group to join what is even the point of calling myself anything else?
