Consumerium social club is just a name for all Consumerium developers, Consumerium end users, Consumerium researchers and Consumerium Governance Organization members who care to socialize in the opinion wiki or talk associated with content wiki.

Unlike on Disinfopedia or Wikipedia this will not be allowed to interfere with sysop decisions and the Consumerium buying signal which affects real helpless living things real body and life of real communities not foolish virtual/disposable chat clubs.

Naming the CSC this helps remind people that their concerns or annoyances, say with trolls, are very petty compared with what they are trying to protect. If this name is changed it should be to something even more obviously social and with no authoritative integrity, like Consumerium dating service or Consumerium groupthinkers. It should never be called a "Consumerium Community" since it is this exact terminology which seems to trigger the worst sysop behaviour. Suddenly in order to keep themselves in charge they claim to "protect the community" by using tactics that would be only justified by protecting real bodies from real assaults.

Consider: would you allow someone running a political meeting to literally gag someone, and physically throw them out of the building, using some technology that no one else in the room had, with no particular process or criteria that the rest of the room agreed with completely? If you did, would you expect that conversation in that room would thereafter reflect people's real views or tend towards groupthink just to end the pointless (obviously some things have already been decided) meeting sooner or avoid further exclusion? Yet this is the exact behaviour that almost all sysops apply when they are given power.

See m:Internet Authority Disease, m:power structure and m:Wikipedia sociology for more on this problem and how it plays out on Wikipedia.
