So, Blue Skye moderation now hides all of Naomi Cunningham’s (wholly inoffensive) posts behind a simpering ‘intolerance’ flag. Complete bullshit, of course. (She’s a distinguished lawyer who happens to take on work in a ‘controversial’ field).

See the "Show" button? Feel free to use it. Nothing's banned, the user gets a label based on actual output, and it applies to all of their posts. It makes viewing a choice, but its not actually restricted.
He grew a beard to pretend that he does, in fact, have a chin under there. And isn't just a slathering pile of empty meat and dead thoughts - you know, typical columnist shit.
She's a transphobic bigot, it's absolutely right and proper that bigotry is moderated.
If you want a platform that caters to spreading the most base hatreds, inciting violence against vulnerable minority groups, Elon Musk bought twitter specifically to cater to your needs! Use it!
it’s compelling speech to force people to be nice to you and they are simply exercising their right to find you disgusting (which is wholly inoffensive and uncontroversial)
This is interesting. I'm an American lawyer; I haven't heard of Ms. Cunningham. What is her field? Why is it controversial? Is she distinguished in just that field or as a practicing attorney?
Alex, Terf's are just repeating Nazi telling points. You are a Nazi sympathiser.
You will now have a big sooky, sooky.
Your kind declared war upon us.
This is mild self defence.
You are a hollow man.
yup, once it’s clear somebody’s main activity is intolerant posts, moderating each individual post from them is a waste of moderators’ time. you can avoid account-level labeling by not being absolutely terrible to people on a consistent basis.
Have you been around long enough to accurately categorize this as being a typical response? I think a more-typical response on bsky would be that you get quietly shunned for being a transphobe, then blocked by that user and others. Bigotry shouldn't be under the umbrella of "intellectual diversity."
Has she tried to not advocate for the extinguishing of trans people? I've managed to be on this site for years without having replies like that with that one simple trick!
part of the 'advantages' to this site is we can tell you and your nazi loving friends like her to eat our shit and hair and there's no algo for you to exploit to get attention off it. Nobody cares about you, do the needed.
We don't understand lots of what your species has to say.
We just know they like to abuse, cage, hunt and kill our kind for centuries.
You would of stood there and warmed your hands of the fire used to burn witches like myself.
No tolerance for witch hunters.
Maybe before you started you should have considered that the hatred you put out into the world might come back around full circle and hit you, or did you believe you were above that and it wouldn't happen?
That would be a huge improvement over how it is now, since leaving it as vague and nonspecific as it is just leaves the door wide open for misinterpretation (both deliberate and unintentional).
What you all sound like: "Waaaahhhhhh, the toxic and intolerant person was accurately described in an online space by a label! Identifying intolerance is the real toxicity!"
If you believe posting negative things about the Trans community is a form of debate and then not understanding why it is labelled as intolerant; you have been on Twitter to long. Just because she is a lawyer doesn’t stop her opinions being hate filled and nasty
Anyone who wants to see posts from “intolerant” accounts and doesn’t want to see warnings can tweak their content preferences to show the posts. Anyone who wants to see the posts despite the content warnings can click through. Anyone who wants to fuck on off back to Twitter can find the door ☺️
Buddy, you can turn off that filter and you can block the people who you find intolerant. This is kinda the whole point of this platform. Take your moderation into your own hands and stop whining.
People can block and label on here as they wish, it’s their prerogative, but Alex, you’re being awfully misleading about a right wing transphobes engaged in discriminatory political project.
This is the one where the overwhelming majority of those 436 had been convicted by being an accomplice to a man, right? But the idiots who saw that stat assumed they’re the ones who committed the act and therefore men (by the UK law definition of rape)
I was wondering that. I had a quick scan of her posts. A joke about getting in the sea being the closest to something that might be misinterpreted or seen as a trans dig. Have now had a look at my moderation settings which was interesting and useful.
Her posts aren't being individually flagged. Her *account* has been flagged for her regular transphobia, and it just applies the flags to all her posts.
Don't you have like spinster or mumsnet or whatever other rancid transphobe social media site you can go for a bigotry hugbox? Why do you transphobic bores always insist on being around people who fucking despise you? Do you get bored with each other so easily?
Brb, laughing until crying bc the white law dorks in Britain feel bad when they can't use bigoted language in social media "debates" without facing social consequences.
Posts either by or about NC (whom I had never heard of) attract a flood of bile from some pretty awful bigots who seem to think that there is only 1 acceptable viewpoint on an issue which is (in the U.K.) increasingly debated & challenged. Are these folks Americans, is that the problem? Block anyway
being a eugenicist isn't "controversial," it's abhorrent. i know this is difficult for british people to grasp as a concept because of your genetic predisposition to bigotry. hope this helps!
Never met an intolerant person who thinks they’re intolerant, TERFs are no exception. Pretend to be shocked somewhere else, no one is playing that game here
No one has an obligation to tolerate her intolerance, and this site isn’t trafalgar, mate. We get to call a terf a terf here, we don’t have to pretend all views are equally valid simply for existing.
It's not 'controversial', you dipshit fuck, transphobia is literally a criminal offence and rejects the expert knowledge of actual experts in the foeld, which both you and Normalisland Clownshoesingham know, you disgusting little perverts
Yeah the benefit of the way the site is structured is you can turn off all of BlueSky’s moderation and subscribe to a different moderation service if you want to (or none at all)
1. It's Bluesky, not Blue Skye. 2. The tag is at the account level and applies to all posts. It's much more effective that way. 3. Feel free to turn off Bluesky Moderation Service and subscribe to a different service. 4. Her field isn't controversial, she is.
Oh, oh no, not the distinguished bigoted lawyer getting her posts hidden! Won't let me spew hatred, don't you know who I am? (At least some of us already did know, which is why she's getting blocked into oblivion! 👋)
I'd never heard of this person before but do you realize it only took a couple seconds to look up their handle, check out their feed and see most of the posts in question are very intolerant?
Let's maybe not give bigots instructions on how to stay here without knowing that they are widely reviled and instead just mute and block them and their defenders.

But quite a lot of what she posts is intolerant, however politely worded.
Personally, I’ll just block her. Saves the stress.
Keep in mind there's actual full blown neo-Nazis who don't get hit.
There is no tolerance for your kind.
You are a stochastic terrorist hiding behind a veneer of civility.
When was tolerating terrorism a thing?
no one should be polite or decent to bigots.
it's a good thing.
I wonder if this is a consequence of her actions that she is so despised
Anyway you should work on removing the hate from your heart my dude ❤
GTFO here. Go back to Xcrement where you belong.
All need "regulation" to encourage healthy behaviour.
Free speech, they do not want us to even have freedom over our bodies.
You are the enabler of the worst
We just know they like to abuse, cage, hunt and kill our kind for centuries.

It also needs to say WHY they have been deemed intolerant. (In this case, transphobia.)
If the post itself was flagged intolerant it should be separate.
Meanwhile, a lot of ppl who are supposedly very anti-intolerance seem to be filling my block list as they don’t seem very tolerant on this topic…

If you disagree, your time here will hopefully be short and unpleasant.
She might be better able to mask her venom than Rowling. But she's a terf.
once someone is shown to be terrible, the mods put an account level label that labels the account and all posts
i wish they would just ban her tho
her organization is literally illegal in canada, she runs a hate group
they need people to harm, victims to hurt
its why they hate so much the concept of a place where people can agree and cooperate, and always seek to intrude on or destroy them
"I cant be at peace, so I'll make sure you cant either"
Look, if someone is intolerant, as Naomi is and has a long history of being toward trans people, it is good for the broader community to know that.
This isn't TERF Island, we don't treat transphobia as a 'controversial' view. It's bigotry and bigots should never be comfortable.
You don't like it? Leave.
While the UI could make it clearer that it’s the account itself that’s been labeled, it’s better than the Twitter / X “Let TERFs run the place” model
We clearly need more degree in the flags for intolerance.
Anyway, what's your take on this Rebel Ridge movie?
Given that context, it makes perfect sense to me.
Problem solved.
