Yeah I hear you. It sucks that Carcosa felt they needed to make that move. Even if the majority of complaints weren't about them (which is how I saw it), it has to be hard to not take it personally. But I was stuck to the posts yesterday and it all did feel super sketchy and disrespectful as a lot of people pointed out.

So I agree that moving on in the sense of forgetting about it is not the move and why I think trying to be productive and have a real discussion on creating accountability/transparency between mods and users is super important. I really liked your ideas (were they yours? Lol) about how that can be done. Maybe that should come sooner rather than later, because it shouldn't just fall to the wayside. If mods are wanting to turn this into a "serious revolutionary online space" or whatever, that needs to be practiced and they need to act accordingly otherwise what's the point?

I also think that the new comms, outside of the drama, just don't really make sense and split hairs too much. I get the feeling others feel similarly, so starting fresh with a new comm created with user input would be the best tack. Venting frustrations is super important, but up to a point. It's all very fresh and emotional rn so I feel that it might not be productive to pivot in the moment. But yeah just my 2 cents
