You're fucking dumb if you think "account that mass harasses and targets people for having blue hair" is a legit thing to defend. Bro LibsofTiktok has caused bomb threats and violence against kids
Also even separate from that, the nature of how moderation lists are often used on here doesn't automatically mean "blocked means they're bad", it's often just "not content/people I want to interact with".
Example: Moderation list to block minors from seeing their 18+ account.
Aww poor Chaya Raichik. This is what happens when you invoke domestic terrorism against marginalized groups of people on a moderated platform. F around and find out, bitch!
Better late than never, like on Twitter which just doesnt do anything about that stuff. A win is a win, and if facists are getting fucked over then its an absolute win!
It "implies" a lot of people immediately recognized the unwanted element and handled business tbh. I mean, effectively, we *are* the bluesky moderation team really
Person who exposes queer folks minding their own business to the frothing rage of conservative weirdos. The kind of people who will call in bomb threats to a school because a teacher has a pride flag somewhere in the classroom. I wish that was an exaggeration. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libs_of_TikTok
Transphobe account who posts about queer people and then have their millions of followers target harass or even hunt them (with at least 5 confirmed suicides).
Its promoting false information and is one of the most influential accounts for american conservatives
I mean, anything associated with Trump is pretty much a cult of personality, but you gotta be careful there because “Blue MAGA” isn’t any better, never worship politicians, hold them all accountable
I’m sure some are trump cultists too, but I don’t see the same cult behavior in maga as I experienced as a Bernie voter in 2016/2020 from the democrats. If you agreed with them on 99% but that 1% was off narrative, you were called a Bernie bro nazi Trump Russia bot
I live in reality. Democrats saying I voted Jill stein in 2016 was because of Russia and not because … Hillary was a terrible candidate, is also a key indicator for me that they’re a hopeless cult.
Refused to self reflect. In 2016 or now. It’s still Russia to them
They haven’t learned a damn thing and quite frankly Bernie’s tiresome call for unity and trying to change their party from within was clearly a hopeless endeavour, you can’t change people who are fueled by their own hubris, the Dems are useless
What about all the rampant peds and scammers on here? Doesn't seem very moderated. Been blocking scam accounts left and right since joining bluesky. It has its pluses but let's not act like it's perfect.
still better than twitter. bots run even more rampant on there and I've had little to no issue with any spam on here. that's not to say it doesn't exist here im sure it does but it's a lot more prevalent on twitter. no site is perfect but you take what's better
Blocking out bots is a difficult job. At a certain point we need something akin to the CAC the military uses for security just for social media accounts. It would tie your identity to your social media but it would also prevent bots. Difficult compromise.
If you hate scammers as much as I do, you'll be glad to know that option exists
The good thing about bsky is that it automatically detects if your posts are scams, hate speech or explicit content and depending on the label you can choose to see it or not
Yes but we dont even have to wait for moderators.. The community can literally create a list and then block all and share it with others to also help.. You cannot do that elsewhere. Not perfect but so much more agile and more good things are on the way.
you're comparing one large account to thousands of small accounts, systemic mass moderation is a lot more complicated than banning one big account, you don't even notice when they do ban them
Those would have inevitably followed the X-odus in order to seek fresh blood. However, we need to do our part and block & report them. It'll make it easier for the mods.
Eh... maybe they should have waited a bit to ban them. At least until that number of accounts that blocked them has reached a place where that record will be set in stone.
No, no. You see, they only said stories that were infactual about surgeries going on AT that hospital. It just so HAPPENS that the next day there was a bomb threat. Clearly they weren't at fault.
Just saying it's really weird how they praise Elon then jump ship to what is admittedly a Twitter rip-off despite Twitter supposedly becoming perfect for them
Reminds me of how a guy calls a girl "ugly" after she rejects him multiple times. In this instance, they accuse this site as a "pedo haven" while ignoring the fact that someone who outright posted underage exploitation just got unbanned over there
Because deep down they know how unlikeable their type are and the idea of only being able to be around people like themselves is frightening to them. That's why they whine when their progressive friends cut ties instead of just finding new like minded friends.
This is also why so many conservative men lie to progressive women about their political views saying they're progressive, "moderate" or saying they don't really follow politics in order to date them. Why not just date conservative women? And why don't progressives lie in the same way to date?
And the only reason they had to make one in the first place is because they would get no matches on regular dating apps 🤣 They acted like women not swiping right on them was oppression. The entitlement they feel to women is unreal
Lol, I'm not a hardcore Christian conservative, but I get you. I tried minds, but they censor stuff, and last time I was there it was pretty dead. Drawn porn, anything artistic, is fine on Gab, but you'll get dinged for photographic stuff you'll see in a porn magazine.
No, just actual consequences for hate speech on a site. I’m sorry you’re not used to seeing people having to be responsible for the horrid shit they spew from their mouths
Ah, so have Libs of TikTok been banned for specific hate speech? It didn’t seem that was the case, more that people were ‘upset’ and ‘triggered’ by the page - there’s a difference between hate speech and speech that you hate.
Go on, explain your point specifically about Libs of TikTok and specifically what they’ve said that ‘calls for a school to be exploded’. Have in mind that they’re also satirical, your response will be fun.
If a have a following of millions of lunatics and sarcastically say “we should punish this school for (thing that was made up)”, it is my fault if it gets attacked
He profile was posting misinformation about Kamala which is tos breaking for misinformation so it's not "trigger the libs" is more like there's actual TOS that they actively broke constantly
But Kamala specifically said the Trump was the new Hitler, yet she’s still allowed on social media, and that’s clearly misinformation. Also Biden lied repeatedly and had his press office lie about pardoning his son, that was misinformation, yet he’s still on socials and so are they. Weird.
What a novel concept: Doxxing people and encouraging Hate Mobs against because you don't like their life choices, even though they don't affect you in any way... GETS YOU IN TROUBLE!?
What's weird is she has threatened to send bombs to all kinds of places and the bitch hasn't so much as seen a single cop in her shitty bigoted life so far.
Nex Benedict. Poor kid died of wounds they got from being beaten up. Libs of Tiktok was one of the sources that was tied to the killing. Raichik basically laughed at the whole thing. That woman has no fucking soul, or if she does, it's blacker then a void. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Nex_Benedict
Well, this is not a free speech platform, it’s a silly echo chamber surrounding a bunch of mentally struggling victim sheep. Libs of TikTok is just too powerful for such a place.
Unlike Twitter, moderation is actually better, and i don't get flagged for saying Cisgender.
But hey, i guess the reason you joined an echochamber like Bsky, is because you couldn't bully people on Twitter, ironically an echochamber that caters to your feelings.
But is this going to become a slippery slope?
If Bsky becomes an echo chamber for only the 'correct' political and social opinions, then it's already doomed.
plenty of people here have varying opinions without it being abusive content like the account this post is referencing. abusive content is not allowed on any platform technically it’s a matter of poor or biased moderation if it is. libsoftiktok have cause real harm to many people
Brandenburg v. Ohio pretty well outlines the scope of that on a legal level. If one knows they have the power to incite people, they are also expected to use that power responsibly and ethically in ways that will not cause disorderly conduct.

Not sure how he is spreading anything.
Disagreement is not transphobia.
Not in the way they would have wanted, but numbers
That's a win for Bluesky moderation team
Rage bait works
This account is a dumpster…you can block immediately
clearly know what they did.

Look at what I can do
You are probably Cisgender!
Oh look, I'm not muted by the platforms, awesome
Just like when she tells her audience on Twitter to “get them” so they send bomb threats to children’s hospitals and churches
They can stay in Musk’s toxic orbit and fester there
Refused to self reflect. In 2016 or now. It’s still Russia to them
I give Bsky some slack as they've experienced an unprecedented increase in users in just a month.
Moderation is a team effort after all
The good thing about bsky is that it automatically detects if your posts are scams, hate speech or explicit content and depending on the label you can choose to see it or not
They harassed my workplace and sent thousands of people to hate on socials over something that was entirely false.
Instead of fact checking they doxxed the person & the nonprofit. This resulted in thousands of hate messages for a period of time.
Like EA's comment over on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/StarWarsBattlefront/comments/7cff0b/comment/dppum98/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3
Wait, that's stochastic terrorism.
Anyway, fuck those guys.
Nothing illegal.
No porn.
The rules are pretty simple.
To be honest I didn't even know GAV was still going.
I've been using Minds alot.
Good thing I've never got to see it.
Fuck off back to Twitter if that is your thing
But hey, i guess the reason you joined an echochamber like Bsky, is because you couldn't bully people on Twitter, ironically an echochamber that caters to your feelings.

Why can't the trash just stay on Twitter, where it belongs?
that trash can stay in Musk's dumpster-fire shithole site where it belongs
