I will probably build something that let’s people Opt Into More Said.
I think in the sense of the general garden-style conflict (rather than Said/Duncan conflict specifically) this is the only satisfactory solution that’s currently apparent, users picking the norms they get to operate under, like Commenting Guidelines, but more meaningful in practice.
There should be for a start just two options, Athenian Garden and Socratic Garden, so that commenters can cheaply make decisions about what kinds of comments are appropriate for a particular post, without having to read custom guidelines.
I do think, for the case of Said, building out two high level normsets of “open/curious/cooperative” and “debate/adversarial collaboration/thicker-skin-required”, letting authors choose between them, and specifically banning Said from the former, is a viable option I’d consider.
Excellent. I predict that Said wouldn’t be averse to voluntarily not commenting on “open/curious/cooperative” posts, or not commenting there in the kind of style that adherents of that culture dislike, so that “specifically banning Said” from that is an unnecessary caveat.
