yesterday and today’s drama was extremely embarrassing and easily avoidable and demonstrates what happens when you’re so focused on Process and Transparency that you forget you can just do the sensible thing instead of opening up a whole discussion around it
saying stuff like 'staff is trying to ensure they include the community in difficult decisions instead of taking unilateral action' are being silly, because they already have taken unilateral action on some things. we didn't need to have this discussion over nazis, for example. people are mad now because this was a question that also has a pretty obvious answer: just ban that shit
