The lack of real ideas to achieve equity and inclusion is clearly a sign of all of you not wanting any of it. Fuck your system of oppression, bigots. I can't believe that there has been a focus on stupid stuff like prefix discussions, while ignoring the issues at hand. Unbelievable that in this day and age, there is no concept for equity and inclusion. How do you expect this site to grow?
We clearly need:
- A table which calculates values for victimhood and oppression for every user, based on skin color, heritage, disabilities, group identities, gender, sexuality, belief systems.
- In the end, there will be two categories in which the users fall, with a number indicating the points in that category. It will look like this:
Oppressed (+15)
Priviledged (+5)
Higher number means more oppressed / more priviledged.
- That calculation and the factors that influence these values are only being defined by the mods, are not public and are changing all the time.
- That score is being displayed right under the user name, like this:
regawdless
Priviledged (+7)
- Affirmative action and prioritization regarding OT creation. For example:
If a "priviledged" user wants to create an OT and claims it, all members with "oppressed" staus will be notified and have the right to claim it instead. With members having the higher "oppressed" score being prioritized.
- Equity in content creation. In every thread that reaches more than 10 posts, a minority quota will kick in. So if only people with the "priviledged" status have posted, more "priviledged" posts will be blocked until there are more posts from "oppressed" users.
- "Priviledged" users only receive 40% of their reaction scores. The other 60% will be equally distributed between the "oppressed" users.
- Unlocked achievements for users with the "oppressed" status actually increase their oppressed score. While users with "priviledged" status will increase their priviledged score when unlocking achievements.
- If a "priviledged" user offends anyone by standards that aren't defined, he will be perma banned immediately.
- If users with an "oppressed" status violate the site rules, the "priviledged" members will get warnings for making them do it and need to apologize.
This should be the starting point. Please contribute your own thoughts and ideas. Lets make this a great and just place.
You cunts.
