I don't personally know Kaiser, but I am specifically writing this review to commend them for their great perspective on slashes. And their courage to push back against the mob. In my opinion, a hurdle Ethos needs to overcome are lazy, insufficient slashes. Even when the slasher is correct, we need to ensure that evidence and proof is brought in the slash as well. Innocent until proven guilty. Otherwise, it becomes a very slippery slope where the accused is deemed guilty nearly automatically, just because. Kaiser brings rigour and consistency, even when unpopular. In two recent slashes they have specifically pushed back on the slasher for lack of evidence. I believe this is something that, if not fixed, is a huge risk to Ethos. And the true way it gets fixed is the community enforcing quality upon itself and its members. Kaiser is doing exactly this. Ethos is lucky to have contributors like them.
