So let's see here. A 5-4 SCOTUS decision split exactly on party lines.

140. Sexism is NEVER OK.

I think the admins get that and they've tossed a few troublemakers over the side. And I think it's a combination of people waking up and smelling the coffee, and troublemakers getting bold and mistakenly thinking they can get away with smart remarks. People do tend to not want to think badly of someone who has been here awhile, especially if they don't KNOW the person very well or interact with them ordinarily, but if they sit on two or three juries with the same complaint about the same person, even those who aren't paying attention, who don't visit certain groups, who avoid certain turfs and fights, will start to see what's happening. Then the boom gets lowered.

People can play the "cute" game for awhile, sometimes for a long while, but time is never on their side. With enough posts, a pattern becomes clear.

Also, people should be aware that the admins DO see the alerts, and they see the jury results. Observations by jurors are read by the admins along with the alerts themselves.

And yeah, stuff is often never easy...but a good fight is a worthy fight, ya?
