Press and hold on any user and you can add a tag. It is incredibly useful for a myriad of reasons. I started implementing a system for sharing/community tags but I didn’t like the implications of having a parallel voting system to the existing one and scrapped it.

Edit: the best part of the feature is that it can link you to why you created the tag. In this case the user in question argued that supporting women’s rights is the same thing as Islamophobia.

Edit: Messed up a copy/paste.

I couldn't find the exact context of what you linked, but down from it I saw your opinion, which I don't agree with, and doesn't say what you're claiming now.

I honestly don’t understand what you’re asking of me. Women having equal rights is a binary thing, they either do or don’t.

This is wrong. They can be equal in some parts and unequal in others. No culture gives identical rights to all other cultures. There are degrees to equality. It isn't all or nothing. I would say most of the west is more equal than countries that follow Islam as a state religion, but most of them don't have total equality. I assume you agree with that, right? And Saudi Arabia is better than Iran, right? Not significantly, but there are degrees to it, right?

Painting it as binary all or nothing is wrong, and probably is antithetical to progress. If it's all or nothing, and something would take a step in the right direction, then why take that step if it isn't all the way, right? Treating it as binary is bad.
