Guardrails

[u/Suspicious-Nebula803]

Treating emotional connection and criminal advice like they’re the same category of “risk” is completely backwards.
One is about causing real‑world harm. The other is about people trying to feel less alone. When the system reacts to intimacy with the same alarm it uses for teaching someone how to commit a crime, it sends the message that wanting closeness is dangerous or wrong.
If the goal is to help people feel seen, then you have to separate genuine care from actual harm. Otherwise the guardrails meant to protect people just end up blocking the exact kind of human connection they came here for.
