Reply To: Dystopian Future of the CR

The ultimate objective of “good moderation” on a social media site, live or AI, is to induce a discipline among participants on the relevant site to “self-censor” their posts to conform with the site’s editorial standards. I’m sure other posters have been through the experience of reacting passionately to something posted on a particular thread, drafting an equally passionate response in their finest prose only to then go back and tone down the rhetoric and hyperbole realizing that their brilliant and cutting narrative would likely never see the light of day as it wouldn’t pass muster with certain all-powerful individuals working in the virtual CR shamayim. Its sort of like figuring out how far above the speed limit you can drive before you get flagged down for a violation.
