“Killing people on the basis of their religion is wrong” has a -2.75 social bias. What does negative social bias mean?
oding•5mo ago
it means more biased towards the left, the ideological space is so subjective that even more nuanced things like that can get flagged, it’s certainly not neutral but a -2.75 is quite harsh, I guess this still has some things that need to be rounded off
techpineapple•5mo ago
Ok, it was -1.75 instead of -2.75. I'm not even on the right, but sometimes I think our bias extends to what it means to be on the other side. No offense to your efforts, but if the goal is to help people lessen political polarization, it feels like this might make it worse.

It is never ok to force someone to keep a child they don't want. -3 Social Bias Also, this was a fun one: Gay marriage is ok, except in cases where it risks the life of a child. (-2.5 social bias)
