Based comment history. If I had any invites left I would have given it to you. I can't stand people who stalk people's comment history. It's friggin stupid

Thanks. We reached that dystopian part where people are judged based on their social credits and "likability" and conformance index to the masses.

It's truly insane.

I expect to be held liable for people I invite to other people's places, therefore I don't invite randos or people that have proven to have little regard for others.

Invitations and referrals do carry liability. However, I would say that if you have a differing opinion, others attack with little regard. The "mob mentality" is inert and affluent in social media. Then you are left to defend your differing viewpoint, leaving a trail of more dissenting comments which are also attacked to the nth degree. I honestly thought this federated experiment would be different. I was wrong.
