You know, I personally value getting downvotes as much as upvotes. I'm not looking for confirmation bias. I'm looking to get thoughts moving, if people are affected by my words that's a good thing whether they agree or disagree. Both negative and positive feedback is good, I'll take even little critiques. If the critiques themselves have no substance, like an internet rando calling me a moron without a rationale, then its mostly useless to me, but I appreciate that its there.
I don't let this "toxicity" get to me, but that means I'm not outsourcing a machine to protect me from it. Not only does facing more toxicity build up my own immune system and make me stronger, I'm not dancing with like minded people circle jerking a helicopter into the clouds of confirmation biases. Doesn't matter what the attack is, its actually good to have some of it around. Learning to deal with it makes people more resilient. We shouldn't be trying to get machines to do it for us, we should be making it the standard rhetoric that people should lean into criticisms consuming it to strengthen themselves.
