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"

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.

I’ve never heard of a single instance of someone getting a ban for abusing Reddit Cares, which is particularly bad given how easy it is to report and prove.

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.
