Er ikke politisk ekspert men har lurt på dette selv før. Men partier som FRP, nei til bompenger, etc er gjerne hva vi kan kalle «misnøyepartier». Partier som appeller til folk som er misfornøyde på et eller annet vis. Dette behøver ikke å være en konkret politisk ting. F.eks at du føler at ting forandrer seg for fort i samfunnet, eller at du føler at for mye fremmede ting tar plass, eller at dine ytringer blir stigmatisert (mens det føltes ok å si ting i bygda 20 år siden).

FRP har gjerne retorikk og symbolsaker som appellerer til følelsen at ting har tatt en tullete vei. Husker du kanskje at de bokstavelig talt hadde en liste mot «dusteforbud»? Mange av tingene i den listen har en ekte grunn til å bli forbudt, men om man nå mener at «jeg brukte solarium som tenåring og jeg fikk aldri kreft» så tenker man ikke i det store bildet. Men med slike partier handler det ofte om egen misnøye. (Dette er ikke eksklusivt til FRP altså, hvem stemmer høyre for å bedre andre folks skatt?)

Dette kommer til neste punkt, FRP er eksperter på grasrotbevegelser. Ingen sak er for liten. Mens Høyre ikke kunne se lavere enn fylkesnivå og AP bare fokuserte på å vedlikeholde industrien, så tok lokallaget FRP opp alle småtingene som vanlige folk sytret om.

For å sette det i perspektiv. I det store bildet er mye viktig, men i hverdagen erger folk seg mer om å måtte betale for en plastpose.

I’d like to hear the other side too, but it’s hard to imagine there’s no foul play at all.

Could also be the heat sensor is faulty, damaged wiring, etc. When I compare them, the reported number can be off by quite a bit from the real temperature .

It was ok. Not great, not bad. Definitely the weakest one.

As for the reason I brought up Facebook moderation is, what do you think is usually posted there? Minion memes? Photos from trips? Well those moderators are often subjected to beheadings, rape, and other very graphic content. Do you think that was explicitly stated when they got hired?

No likely not, and Facebook clearly deserves a proper reckoning. But I don’t see how this relates or makes it ok.

And I am not making any arguments whatsoever on whether or not she should actually have to see "comments from people talking about how they wanted to fuck me and my co workers.".

Would you say LTT/LMG sells itself as a channel about sex or porn or the likes? No, it’s a tech channel and as such one would expect tech related social media. You could state that the function of the job is unchanged, but the job content is also relevant here.

The kind interactions (including pictures and such) you get on OF vastly differs what you will get on other platforms. That’s not in the job description.

And to your last point, she was a social media manager, not a Facebook moderator. How does that compare? Are you intentionally making bad faith arguments?

Because the internet is exceptionally shit against women in particular, and because she clearly stated she didn’t want to do it.

This is kinda basic stuff.

[–] eendjes@feddit.nl 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah. It’s a nice concept, I even think 7th Continent could be nice if they redid the rules. A vague booklet and a half hour long YouTube video is not sufficient, especially since I can’t easily look stuff up in the video. (And let’s be honest I don’t wanna watch YouTube videos when I’m playing a board game either!)

Let’s hope Citadel fixes all that.

It really is. Luckily it’s a skill that can be trained.

I’ve only skimmed your comments, but I think a factor is also that a lot of them are really hard to read.

Examples I see are weird sentence structure, the lack of paragraphs for longer messages, the lack of capitalisation, and rather odd/hyperbolic use of words (writing in the same way you’d speak?). This “style” just gets interpreted as “noise” when I’m reading it, which will get downvoted as it doesn’t contribute.

English isn’t my first language either (it’s not even my second or third!) so I understand it’s very hard to get these things right. But without sufficient clarity you will get downvotes, as it just comes off as noise.

Yeah same. I see a mix of positive and negative.

For me it would probably be “7th continent”. It just feels a bit undercooked and the rules are vague in a way that’s really frustrating. People really like it on BGG but I don’t get it.
