@ifixcoinops@slothrop@Wander wandering in here to express total agreement -- there's a strong culture of having to hit the nuclear button before everyone else, or indeed, before the full scope of the problem is understood and moderation teams have had time to intercede.
I won't call it performative per se, but those I'm most concerned about in this regard are very quick to broadly announce that they've taken action, compared to announcing that they're considering action.
