You decide it's time for less meta, and more beta.
Counter-proposal: Everyone, let's just agree to downvote any discussion of moderation, moderators, downvoting, c?ns?rsh?p, and so on. Here's why:
Prolonged discussions about moderation attract the attention of three sorts of people:
However, any prolonging of the discussion just makes it worse. Shoot it. That is what the downvote button is for.
(Feel free to apply the above policy to this comment.)
That doesn't make sense.
That's a complementary proposal, not a counter-proposal. Unless you are advocating everyone getting reddit accounts and going there to systematically downvote.
Or, you know, they could go have meta discussions on reddit where it is none of your business unless you force it to be.
Getting such conversation off lesswrong has already achieved the practical objectives. Opposing outright exile of conversation in favour of the "counter-proposal" of keeping it present but everyone cooperating to actively disapprove of it via downvotes amounts to several steps in the wrong direction.
Your solution is optimised for moral indignation signalling, not practical consequences.
Done.
