good idea/bad idea?

[memorizingthedigitsofpi]

 I think I want to make a post that breaks down the various types of logical fallacy and applies them to anti rhetoric. 

But I also don't want to end up drowning in hate messages again. 

Have we reached an impasse? Or do I write it and post it here where people have a lot more sense - but also fewer people will actually see it?

Write and post it here; link to it from your Tumblr when you feel the need.

Yeah, I was kind of thinking that might be a good workaround. People who are interested could read it if they want to and people who are just in it to tell me off probably wouldn't bother to click the link. Right? Hopefully?

It's really hard to say whether people will or won't follow the link. In my experience, people generally won't follow it over, but I'm not a popular Tumblr (thankfully) so I don't know if you'd have a different experience or not.

on Dreamwidth, your options for dealing with abusive commenters include, and this is in increasing order of how much I like the feature: (0) disable comments on the entry (but that will hide all comments on the entry) (1) freeze the comment thread (2) ban the logged-in user (3) disable anonymous comments on either the entry or your account (4) lock the post so only logged-in users you've explicitly granted access to can view it (5) delete the offending comment(s) (compare: tumblr reblog comments) (6) report the comment to Dreamwidth staff, who actually care about stopping harassment and being Nazi-unfriendly and etc

also Dreamwidth is so much easier to read long posts on than Tumblr is

What they said. Dealing with the unwanted comments is SO much easier here, and most people from the Hellsite (affectionate) won't probably even click the link. (I know I don't, unless I'm SURE it's a rickroll. Yes, I'm weird.)
