It’s not a matter of entitlement, its a matter of making sure peoples needs are met. That is the entire point of mutual aid. Throwing money at problems indiscriminately is not a solution. If you feel like giving someone money, give someone money. That is not what this post is about.
Somewhat understandable but you are advocating for witch trials instead of an outright ban which would be a much more sensible solution… which leads me to believe you haven’t thought this through at all or aren’t serious.
If it makes you ideologically mad that resources aren’t being perfectly allocated or whatever… Maybe unsubscribe from the comm or at least propose a solution with some thought behind it. Jesus.
How is it advocating for witch trials? As far as I’m aware this wasn’t even perceived as a problem until a 1 off situation. That 1 off situation being highly controversial in this community. I would rather people talk these things over and actively learn from each other, than to blanket ban criticism. Criticism is not inherently malicious, and its not saying “don’t send money to this person” (and saying this IS wrong).
This is an online community, it has very little capacity to help, but one of the ways it can help is through conversations. Limiting the type of conversation, limits that capacity further. That is the point I am making.

You’d be wrong there, a similar situation with the same user (to my knowledge) being involved that happened at the start of hexbear/chapo.chat and a bunch of users got banned, including the user people donated/gave the money to. It’s been ongoing since the chapotraphouse subreddit days.

Who is advocating for witch trials and where did they advocate such a thing?
Ok are we going to appoint someone to vet everyone’s claims or what. This is what I mean. Not a serious solution.
