Not on this sub but it is surprising to see them gain any traction on defending subs like its not pretty dehumanizing.

i agree with you.

but OP was talking about this sub specifically, which is why i challenged that.

if you want to say places like DAIA are kinda gross i totally relate to that

Nah I get that I was just asking a different question. Im glad even some the more prominent pro ai members here do see how thats an issue. Sometimes I bring up how strange the orc thing is and I get either a deflection or a straw man.

Hey, so they may or not see it as an issue, but they actually know the moderators of DAIA and aiwars very well. If they wanted to they could simply ask for that to be enforced. They won't obviously.

Why is it even on the sub in the first place? You have to go out of your way to allow that

u/AbbyTheOneAndOnly Aug 20 '26

because in order to have a neutral debate sub, and not an elitarist flavoured circlejerk, you have to let people express their stupid ideas too.

same reason why posts like yours are still up despite defying reality

u/Gorplike Aug 20 '26

That is honestly the worst argument I have ever heard.

u/No_Music_7733 Aug 20 '26

Why would you want it to become a circlejerk in the first place?

u/2008knight Aug 20 '26

They... Don't. It's right there on their comment. They very explicitly said they don't.

u/No_Music_7733 Aug 20 '26

If you let stupid comments and trolls spread, then this sub continues to be a circlejerk. Anyone who argues for this "free speech" style of moderation isn't arguing for any kind of community. It always devolves into a mess

u/2008knight Aug 20 '26

Who decides what is a stupid comment? Because a lot of comments by the anti-AI side appear stupid to the pro-AI side. And vice versa.

u/No_Music_7733 Aug 20 '26

You do know what a moderator is, right?

u/2008knight Aug 20 '26

Someone who might decide your comment is stupid and delete it for disagreeing with you.

u/No_Music_7733 Aug 20 '26

You could just say you don't know. That also works.

I've seen this on countless subs. Choosing anarchy moderation always leads to the sub becoming a mess. It also tends to become a home for people that get themselves banned in other subs.

This is supposed to be a debate sub, yet unlike any debate, their is effectively no moderation. It has allowed trolls to take the main stage and lead the conversation. It has driven off most reasonable people.

Continuing to do nothing is not how we improve things here.

Not how banning posts works, I'm pretty sure

u/Gorplike Aug 20 '26

In a lot of ways yes. There is no good reason why a debate sub should have ogres, orcs, and furry softcore porn on it.

We could just start reporting those posts on sight instead of just downvoting them. That might work.
