Actually infuriating things are so far outside of the purpose of this community. When I want to read about the terrible things happening in the world, I go read about them. When I’m trying to take a break and refresh my mind, it is aggravating that I’m still forced to view these issues in my fun communities.

If we aren’t going to outright forbid it, could we maybe at least enforce a tag, something like [RI] for really infuriating stuff so that it could be more easily filtered out?

      No, I’m not interested in creating that community. Someone who is interested in posting and running it may do so, I just don’t want it here.

        Since the mods here are already effectively modding that community perhaps they would be interested.

        It definitely needs to be separated, this should be a light hearted community.

        Saying that mildlyinfuriating will allow actually infuriating content until another community is made is a bit like saying we will have foodporn allowing hardcore bondage content until hardcore bondage content until a community is made for hardcore bondage. That isn’t what that community is for.

        Even if there isn’t a specific infuriating community there is almost always another appropriate place, most often one of the politics communities.
