I wonder if retardedly ignoring design flaws is just a way to maintain sanity in a dangerously insane world, like immigrants who vote for Trump ignore that he's genocidally racist because acknowledging the truth is immensely disruptive emotionally.

Yeah, listening to a micromobility group agree that a massive engineered blind spot was a skills issue is more than I could bear. I'm already looking for the End All of Existence button as it is.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
