I don’t see anything here to question Ilverin’s mental fortitude. They’re not demanding people appease sneerclub or going into a shame spiral. They raised a hypothesis. I think “we don’t accept hypotheses from sneerclub and accept that we will miss the twice a day when that broken clock is correct” is a reasonable blanket policy for LW, but that doesn’t mean everyone who raises a hypothesis from them has been irretrievably corrupted.
Yes, I certainly don’t think Ilverin is ‘irretrievably corrupted’! I only meant to suggest that this particular source of ideas and arguments (bullies) was net negative for Ilverin, not that Ilverin is themselves a net-negative source of ideas and arguments.
