@kimlockhartga@beige.party @alice@lgbtqia.space ^ that is what makes this accurate: "Reviewing an application is lower effort than trying to fix the damage from an attack." Moderators have to review hundreds of applications to prevent a single attack. But because the damage of accumulated attacks is both long-lasting and affects audiences beyond a single direct target, reviewing remains a lower effort investment Preventing attacks is also ethically worthwhile, adding ethos to logos and pathos! Never let meritocracy trolls reduce us to only using logos and rational arguments as persuasive tools
