Most of the DTs who ~ each other dont do it because they actually distrust them, its done because of disagreements or falling outs.
exclusions aren't
just about whether you trust someone (eg in a trade). they indicate whether you trust someone else's judgment (eg about their inclusions) and their use of feedback.
anarchist societies practice ostracization as a non-violent means to encourage good behavior and discourage bad behavior. that's all TECSHARE is encouraging---the use of non-violent consensus to ostracize bad actors. this is the only say that individuals have in a group that operates by general consensus.
And then, do you know the trust system is meant to be a subjective system?
humans are subjective, no escaping that. does that mean we can't strive towards objective standards?
None of this is anything all the ones complaining here don't do already anyway. They just want to cry about it when they are on the other side of it. They can exclude and include people freely, but when I do it I am "manipulating the trust system".
Manipulate deez.
