We are volunteers, with full-time jobs. We don't watch all the comments in our communities. We tend to only act on reported infractions. For example, you are reported often for rule violations (rule 2, mostly).
we shouldn't try to stop murder, because it will always happen
we shouldn't try to stop racism, because it will always happen
we shouldn't try to stop slavery, because it will always happen
we shouldn't try to stop government corruption, because it will always happen
We shouldn't look at our past and say "we will never rise up above this, so why try". We become better incrementally, by TRYING to be better.
By basically saying "you're disillusion for advocating for better" means you've given up. I and many like me haven't. There's no reason we can't work towards a safer society for all.
Please explain your comment. It could be seen that you are (mockingly or otherwise) stating that all sex is rape. As this is not completely clear, I would ask that you explain what you meant.
Comment reported. Rather than removal, as I don't feel you broke a rule, I decided to respond directly.
Instances aren't isolated. Yes, we have individual instances, but they are FEDERATED. We don't have one central governing body, but generally speaking, instances that are federated between one another have very similar views. If you can see this, that means your instance is federated with an instance I can see or am a part of.
Saying to "find an instance that matches your values" shows you have almost no understanding of how the federated technology and ideology works.
This comment was reported. I have left it, and decided to explain.
Nobody is saying a person is more dangerous than a bear. They are saying that a woman feels safer in the woods knowing that a bear is there than a man.
This is because a bear, generally, won't attack unless provoked. Not all men (and I'm a man, before you try to guess) have that much restraint. This is not saying that ALL men are bad, or even MOST. Just statistically speaking, a woman is more likely to be hurt by a man in the woods than a bear.
Ignorance of the argument can be solved, and I hope this helped.
Do you have any of the accounts doing the harassment? If you would, DM me those that you have, and I'll personally look into it, and reach out to instance admins with my findings.
