I like low level dunks because they are the kind I interact with offline too, and the responses and critiques are applicable to how I interact with those people or in those spaces.

Like if I see a common sinophobic trope being shopped around, then I get a good counter to it in the dunk tank, I can use it when a friend or whoever brings it up irl.

Higher profile people don’t necessarily truck in the same rhetoric as people thinking they’re posting in semi-anonymous online spaces. If the dunk tank is going to be useful, and serve as a useful venting space/containment zone, then putting some arbitrary cutoff of ‘oh a few hundred followers needed before we can drag this shithead’ is a counterproductive rule imo

Also I don’t care

Edit: i mean, I’m okay with your moderation decision. I understand what you’re going for, but I think what I’m trying to say is that personally i don’t see low hanging fruit as a problem. To me it’s cathartic to be like ‘check out this trasheap’ and have a few friends also lay in the boot, while I don’t post in this comm, I have like, one friend irl who I do share ragebait with when I come across it, it’s kinda like oh I haven’t messaged person x in a while, I’ll flick them this thing I saw and ask him what’s up, and if I didn’t, I’d probably share it here as an outlet?

Edit edit: also yeh the change has been made so not sure even why it’s worthwhile sharing my view on it now anyway. I’m sleepy night y’all
