I always knew I had won an argument when they stopped replying and I got the Reddit cares message. If the ‘report abuse’ link that was in those messages ever led to consequences I never saw it.

There has never been a place or moment where that wasn’t a thing. People suck, and any tools like that will always be misused. There’s a reason reporting people anywhere isn’t an automatic and immediate thing.
It’s fun that it’s been weaponized to report people who you don’t like.
“Someone thinks you may be suicidal” translates to “you hurt someone’s feelings at some point”
