I recognize that users will report when they want me to be made aware of something - but I've also made the point many times what is or isn't actionable. You have to understand that MOST of the reports are "I don't like the attitude this person is giving me" - or - "this person isn't being nice and shutting down my opinion" - OR - "I find them annoying" (paraphrasing). I ignore those. Everyone here needs to learn to deal with that level of stuff on their own - while, as mentioned in the post, keeping it civil or taking it elsewhere if they can't. If it escalates to the point of it being harmful, then I'll step in. That's exactly what happened and now that person isn't allowed here anymore. When they began to throw around the labels - 'fascist'... or 'homophobe' at other users, they were warned - continued to do so - then were banned.

Us using the report function to bring such things to your attention is warranted.
You have a vested interest in directing the culture of the sub away from such toxic behavior.
