This is related to why I am not part of online communities that aren't small groups of my offline friends. 20+ years in T&S and all my professional reflexes are too alienating.
What most ppl mean when they think “trust and safety team” is the equivalent of a discord server mod who is their friend and agrees with their personal politics and whose main job is managing interpersonal relationships w/in their friend community, and when this doesn’t happen the T&S team is “bad”
