Just a reminder if an account is sharing something from reduxx they are a terf.

Reduxx is an anti trans hate magazine attempting to use feminism as a cover for their bigotry and hate.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

TIL


Karl (sad trombone noise enthusiast) (@brainnotonyet.bsky.social):

Yeah, reduxx is one of their gnarlier propaganda rags

Have decided that peas are pretty great. High in protein and vitamins. Goes great with bacon inna soup. Pease porridge. Yum.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Note to self: if you ever return to the 1990's, start a renfaire kitchen that sells pease porridge as its staple, call it "If You Pease, Good Peaple" and rake in the $$$

Menfolk, don't do this. Ever.

You're a gorgeous woman, Sassy, and too many tats might not enhance your beauty . . . but, that's just my opinion. 😍

The parent post is a shitpost, but —

There's a genre of troll who uses the sincere desire of certain people to (above and beyond any other consideration) Always Be Jihading their Enemy

To amplify harms and springboard into the attention of thousands, even millions.

We have to evolve beyond A.B.J.

e.w. niedermeyer (@niedermeyer.io):

when people are like "I just don't like the vibe on Bluesky"


tractus_boss (@tractusb.bsky.social):

Good general advice.

On an unrelated note, what do you think jihad means?


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

I prefer the choice connotation of "dialectic", but more often than not it is ideologically motivated violence which is signified.


tractus_boss (@tractusb.bsky.social):

That's all I needed to know.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Glad to finally fulfill someone's needs~

Tony Wong (@thevballdude.bsky.social):

@rahaeli.bsky.social I wonder if you have any thoughts on this whole thing (from a moderation/T&S perspective)

cait (@cait.bsky.social):

im sorry but it's so insane for two white people to accuse a black man of being "a danger" to s*x workers, refuse to provide proof, then expect to just go back to their normal posting, and also for the guy to get suspended and not the accusers


rahaeli (@rahaeli.bsky.social):

Don't know any of the background for the vagueposting, don't have the time or energy to acquire it, as a genera principle keep in mind that enforcement actions take place in the context of any/all prior violations on the account and a suspend for something "minor" could be a last-strike


Tony Wong (@thevballdude.bsky.social):

Thank you for replying. I'll have to admit that stuff like this makes composable moderation a little less appealing to me (what's the point if a user can be banned just as easily?) And suspending a user also removes all their previous posts, which breaks threads and hurts the user experience.


rahaeli (@rahaeli.bsky.social):

If someone has repeatedly demonstrated an inability to remain within the boundaries of the Terms of Service, allowing them to remain on the service is a dumbfrick idea


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

And there is a species of bad actor who are publicly Sweet Cinnamon Rolls UwU who are simultaneously doing things in public that seem OK, while also doing things in non-public ways that are evil, & then leverage the inevitable ban to scream "Admins are corrupt! Watch [service] Die! Get Angry!"


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

And admins who want to comply with privacy regs generally have to grin and bear it silently

Okay, here's my writeup of the Brazilian block order (yes, including the temporary amendment suspending the VPN block). It's still absolutely crazy. No one should be in favor of this. www.techdirt.com/2024/08/30/b...

Brazil Bans ExTwitter In Battle With Musk, Takes VPNs & Users Down With It


Robert Szasz 𓅆 (@rszasz.bsky.social):

I wonder what would have happened to a social media company in the US that told the DOJ/courts to pound sand when subpoenas were issued over Jan 6th


Mike Masnick (@mmasnick.bsky.social):

Lawsuits and due process would have happened.


Roger Laureano (@rogerlaureano.bsky.social):

It would be nice... if there was a legal rep in Brazil so a lawsuit could even happen.


Mike Masnick (@mmasnick.bsky.social):

There was. But when it turned to threatening to jail the legal rep, that's no longer a "legal rep." That's a hostage.


Roger Laureano (@rogerlaureano.bsky.social):

For not complying with legal decisions, which is, in itself, an illegal act. So there should be a lawsuit, but they shouldn't face the legal consequences of breaking the law?


Robert Szasz 𓅆 (@rszasz.bsky.social):

Who is breaking the law, if the legal rep has no ability to do the things that would comply, what law are they breaking?


Roger Laureano (@rogerlaureano.bsky.social):

X had the ability to comply, and has already done this in Brazil several times.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

To be clear: Mike isn't saying that Musk / X is the comparatively sane actor in this scenario. Mike's whole thing is "Governments should cool it with prior restraint & autocracy etc"; He's one of the experts on how governments screw up social media. He leaves it to other people to critique Musk


Mike Masnick (@mmasnick.bsky.social):

And, I mean, I critique Musk plenty. But just because Musk is terrible it doesn't make this ruling a good one.

If it had been Signal, they would have pounded sand until the next time Marlinspike flew internationally and then they would have five-S'd him


Robert Szasz 𓅆 (@rszasz.bsky.social):

I mean, the most they could really do is ban a username/number, right?


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

the most Signal could do is ban a number, yeah. Which would be pointless.
