When someone makes a post that could indicate what they think in a way that could lead to actions with real world consequences, it’s difficult if not impossible to tell if they are in a position, for which they could take actions that affect the world based on what they think. I think knowing whether someone is in a position, in which they could take actions with real world consequences would help in determining whether it’s worth it to try to change their mind.

I think there should be tags automatically attached to a persons post that indicate what role they have in society, in a way that indicates if trying to change their position is worth it. For instance if a person promotes spanking the tags could indicate whether they have children, or are planning to have children as a measure of if trying to change their mind is worth it. If someone promotes expecting years of experience when getting hired there could be a tag that attached to their post indicating whether or not they are an employer. There could also be similar tags indicating what kind of roles the viewers of someone’s post would have, which could be achieved through magically predicting the future. For instance with the spanking example the tags could indicate whether the viewers of a persons post are mostly parents or people who plan to be parents.
