L take, only because you have people like u/awkwardtheturtle who like to brand anyone who disagrees with them as the public enemy. I haven’t read up on this extension in a couple years, but last I checked there was no safeguard from one user just going in and falsely flagging accounts. If they have something in place to reasonably prevent this, then my point might be mute. But if they don’t, then fuck em.

Seems like you didn’t really read up on it considering the website says
Is there a mechanism in place to prevent malicious/fake reports?
Yes. While your overrides are immediately visible to you, changes are included in the publicly visible dataset only if they pass some trustworthiness criteria (including human validation).

Yeah free speech absolutists suck! Try criticizing their right wing ideas and watch them become hypocritical.
Hate speech needs to be punished because it is the first step of dehumanization.

i don’t think it even rises to the bar of a free speech issue, honestly. it’s akin to throwing a tantrum because someone took your jerkass note off the corkboard, it was a courtesy to let it stay there in the first place.
