  The perils of community-sourced data

  Used to have an extension like this until I noticed people were marking names as anti-trans simply because they didn’t like them and realized no one even needed to submit any proof/source, so I ended up uninstalling

    Is it only me that just hates the idea of “marking” someone up-front, rather than deriving what you think of them from their actions? My point being that the way we interpret things should be “this thing is bad” -> “the person is bad”, not the inverse “this person is marked as bad” -> “they said/did something” -> “that thing must be bad”.

    I feel like an extension like this is built around facilitating the latter: Judging the content or actions based on whether the person is tagged as “good” or “bad”, rather than looking at the words and actions themselves.

    I’ma be real, it’s highly concerning to install something like that in the first place. I can’t place my finger on it tho why.

    Cause it sounds like a good idea on paper. But my brain keeps going to toxic positivity and that doesn’t feel entirely right?
