For context: The thread was about why people hate Hexbear and Lemmygrad instances

    Allow me to rephrase: why are we having this conversation?

    You posted about language you find unacceptable and I shared that I report guillotine comments because they are violent threats. However I never follow up and see if any action was taken because I just don’t care that much.

    What does this have to do with you, or your ban?

      Oh, okay, I think I see what you meant now, excuse me for misinterpreting that.

      No, I have never reported anyone for saying “eat the rich” or anything like that, nor would I, because I don’t see it as a credible or immediate thread. I understand that it’s usually just meant as a metaphor; it’s people blowing off steam or venting their frustration, not a suggestion to resort to immediate cannibalism.

      I honestly don’t think I’ve ever reported anyone on social media, unless it was spam or advocating for child rape. I might report doxxing if I ever came across it but it hasn’t happened so far. Does that answer your question?
