On the flip side: if I were to attend an event featuring Richard Stallman, I would rather it have a no-photos policy. I am interested in many of his ideas, but I have no desire to be associated with his ideas in their entirety or any public figure. Unfortunately, too many people believe that A implies B.

I also hate drama, and would much rather lead a quiet life as a person no one likes than an interesting life who some people dislike.

People will dislike you arbitrarily anyway. Can't get around that it seems in my experience, but maybe I'm bad at laying low

True. Maybe dislike was a poor choice of words on my part, but I can't think of anything more suitable. The main thing I want to avoid is drama. If someone dislikes me and that dislike doesn't go any further than letting me know, that's fine. It's their choice. When their actions start affecting my life, that's not fine.

Are we even sure they're people? Something like 90% of Reddit content is now LLM bots.
