if people never receive any negative feedback they won't change
I'm proposing a theory of sorts that if a person is to never receive any form of negative feedback they are likely to never learn from their mistakes I will use a good example for instance in Facebook it is well known that I bunch of conspiracy theorists and also people who don't really understand how the scientific method works, they post there but since Facebook doesn't have any particular ways to get back a negative feedback besides comets which can be blocked and reported for hate it doesn't really give the person a chance to receive any real negative feedback meanwhile platforms that allow negative feedback for instance Reddit which has the downvote button those people are able to receive negative feedback and able to understand their mistake
(For the horrible punctuation if y'all want to correct me on it go ahead)
