| Aug 5, 2021 at 19:44 | comment | added | user14319 | Thank you for your messages. It is inspiring that you choose to continue your contribution to the main site. I found it difficult for me to make a peace with myself when seeing relentless daily close/deletion of good content in the site and a clique dominating the meta with nonsense while I was not able to do any change. But your words make me think that maybe we can still help others even without being able to stop those harmful activities. Staying off the meta (and the troubling users) and focusing on the good side may be the first step to make a peace. | |

I'm coming around to the opinion that, due to the way MSE is being run, it is doing active harm to mathematics in general. I honestly believe that maths anxiety is pure maths' biggest issue, and that people coming away from maths education traumatised eventually leads to what we've seen for the past 20 years: dwindling support for pure mathematics. It's so important that we, as a community, engage in positive, encouraging outreach. MSE is pouring fuel on this dumpster fire. If I stay off meta, I still can do good, leading by example. | |

Their behaviour is inconsistent with both their stated goals of collecting interesting mathematics and helping people. I think I first realised this with this question which I went to bat for in Meta. Check out the edit history! | |
