That’s not what I said.
Show me WHERE I said that disagreeing is bullying.
I’ve been in a few arguments here myself, you know. One or two. Over the course of a decade and then some.
Disagreeing, debating, arguing WITH WORDS is fine.
An anonymous button is bullying.

Based on all the threads lately I think it seems like many amothers would rather get rid of the hug button altogether.

That was my point. Dislike is the lesser of the two evil. For those who can’t refrain from being evil...

Another thing that was once suggested is for each poster to be able to either add one or delete one hug or like. I'm not sure that would be possible to make, but it it were, removing a like is less harsh than a dislike (assuming the count cannot go below zero) and regular users would be able to undo hug button abuse.

I do maybe agree that it has potential for misuse. And that obviously it's always better to explain why you disagree instead of just saying disagree. But I don't think it's bullying to say that you disagree. |
So say under your sn, I disagree. Or if you've been on the thread as amother, so the poster has already been in some level of dialogue, say you disagree. Or even say it without having participated in the thread. But then the poster has some name, even just an amother color, to ask, "What part do you disagree with? Why?"

So maybe we can have a hug as a hug button and a bless your little misguided heart button.

We should really all collectively agree to do that. Who’s in? I should open another spin off and poll but I exceeded my poll quota for this month already!

I don’t do that. Ever. Nor do I ever post anonymously. If I disagree with someone, I reply to them, in words, under my sn.
And I can at least pretend hugs are sincere.
Why should I be subjected to more abuse that will possibly make me suicidal because others misuse anonymous buttons? What, we’re now ENCOURAGING bullying?

I really think there should either be just 1 button, or the names of those who hit the button should be public so there is accountability.
