I think you've put it a lot more concisely than my yapping in the post πͺ
Like I waffle a lot cos I'm scared that if I don't try and vocalise every nuance I'll get dog piled so to be blunt and maybe a bit reductive: self crit doesn't feel like reform, it feels like public punishment/bullying behaviour/hazing and any catharsis from having confirmation someone has addressed their views feels soured by the public spectacle of it.
I think I'll do the same, I try not to block anything if I can help it and just subscribe to ones I like but yeah.
hopefully i can extend how long it is before i disappoint everyone πͺ
Tone: genuine but also irony poisoned
Fr and without tone it's a nightmare trying to tell if someone's angry or being ironic etc. I fucking hate it.
I regularly worry everyone hates me online because I can't tell their tone π
Was your friend Paz from metal gear?
Anime fell of a cliff for me :(
The objectification/sexualisation of women i think just hit a limit but occasionally some stuff I'd watch like Spy X family! That was so good, I need to watch season 2.
I was so psyched when I heard about Dandandan since everyone was like oh its amazing and a close friend even said it might help me get back into it and I thought oh wow. People I trust who know me say it's great.
I'm glad I read on here what to expect before I sat down to it. I don't need that rn.
Open source intelligence training? Does he mean being twitter addicted?
That doesn't count! 
Exactly, we'll have our own collapse when can't make money on money or something. Whatever London does.
Awwwh they're sending her back to the 
This is the worst ending 
That kamala would win 
Still we don't get poisoned by derailed trains on the reg which I'm always thankful for 
See i totally agree with you there, when it first appeared I had the exact same thinking. But over time I think the very act of having it in a specific sub creates a spectator sport of people's worst moments.
Like if people wanted to self crit then making a post in c/chat raising what happened and having that growth and discussion there sounds great. But having specifically a sub for it feels like it's takes the organic growth and desire from the user to acknowledge their mistake away. Like instead of them going "I should go on c/chat and talk about this productively to address my mistake" it feels like a signposted expectation. Like have they learnt if they didn't decide for themselves? Like the initiative is important I feel. But that's just me literally strawmanning tbh.
Awwh I hate referencing soros like they aren't here but when I saw their post I didn't read it and think "good self crit" youre based again. I've seen that user a lot and they aren't a homophobe imo and it felt weird to see them essentially wearing that jacket to start a conversation BUT I'm not a gay man so it's not my place to decide that or make any comment on it so disregard my opinion there lmao. I dunno like with the incels from last week, I'd feel so bad if one of them felt compelled to self crit. I'd rather they make a c/chat and just have an organic conversation on that they've learnt on their own initiative not because c/selfcrit gave them the idea.
And I totally see your points too! I think I'll probably not engage with it myself but if it does help some positive growth in users then amazing and yes maybe it could be refocused to a more general critique of behaviour vs individuals unless it's specifically relevant to a personal experience?
