Troubling times for us here at Help-QA

I appreciate this message and I know you are concern is honest and meant with the best possible intentions.

I have a couple of things to get off my chest.

I am sorry some people have felt bullied. I hope that I am not one of the perpetrators. If I am, I believe this is an unfair assessment. This isn't a question, I am just saying, and don't want a response one way or the other on this.

I do regret some of my interactions here of late. Not because I think I was being intentionally cruel to anyone, or excessively abrasive. But because instead of engaging with certain posts, the better route would have been to report them to a moderator. Not because I disagreed with them, but because I think they contained misinformation that could cause people to inadvertently hurt themselves or others. I will do that in the future, in order to have whatever differences I have with the poster (well, really the post-contents) mediated that way.

I don't mean that it should be a one-way thing, and I don't expect something to be taken down just because I reported it. I'm just saying that it isn't up to me, alone, to challenge content if I literally think it is dangerous. A moderator should be involved to verify if my concern is justified.


Does that sound fair, padre?

------------------------------------------------------------

If I understand correctly, you are not saying that people should not disagree, only that they need to really be careful about what they say and how they disagree.

I can appreciate this. No one is perfect when it comes to this. And I will try harder than I normally do to be as clear as I can and make sure people are aware that, when I disagree with them...it's not personal for me. At all.

But in all fairness, I think some people on here seem inordinately shocked and even offended when they get pushback on opinions that are EXTREMELY controversial. I find this difficult to understand.

Another factor here is that alot has been happening of late, everywhere. We're all, every single one of us on here, under a lot more stress than we're usually under. I think this has contributed to a lot with tensions rising. Things are literally life or death out there right now. COVID. The Protests. Impeachment. The upcoming election. Things are very tense and coming to a head. All I mean is...it's no surprise that we're all feeling a little on edge.

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak outโ€”because I was not a socialist.

I mean, you see this and I think you should ask yourself if you should really take her seriously.

The protesters aren't asking for Floyd to be canonized.

Protesters want better training for police officers. They want excessive force tactics like chokeholds to be banned. They want police to be held accountable for when they make fatal mistakes. That's not a black vs white thing. Innocent white men get killed by police too. It shouldn't be a Republican vs Democrat thing either.

Something just struck me and I find it amusing because it seems true to me. The people who are against the protesters will say "Everybody agrees that what happened is bad!" Well, we have a video. Of course you agree that murder caught on video is bad.

If there was no video, I am sure they would not be saying that. They'd say the police did their job and should go free.
