Comment on "The (Trust and) Safety Dance" - When an ostensibly “social” company has a Trust and Safety department, try and see it for what it is: a sign that failure is an option.

But it proves that ‘people constructively and healthily socializing via the internet’ is entirely possible without being forced to tolerate any more nonsense than one would normally expect when humans get together.

This reads so fucking stupid to anyone who hung around on the internet in the 90s and earlier. Social media and the monetization of social interactions is built on top of the ways we interacted before, not the other way around. Wanting to communicate and interact is why we used the internet in the first place. Social media is relatively new, and the internet hasn’t always been this frustrating to use.
