I’m curious.

Are those users _hesitant_ about flagging posts that don’t fit?

Do they, maybe, _imagine_ that flagging will not lead to an agreeable outcome?

Are those users accustomed to the _immediacy of publicly showing their distaste_ for something? (That’s not a loaded question. If that’s their habit, that’s just the way it is, no good pretending otherwise.)

Do they get a group feelgood factor from _collective distaste_?

The appearance of thick skin can be deceiving 🙂 but I guess that if a person will knowingly speak or write in an area where negativity is a feature, the person should be prepared to apply his or her own bandage after being cut.

Or (@mcbuzz) do your people club together to feel good after one person gets cut by a slash of negadisliky?
