Bard spotting on Bluesky 17 October 2024

Faine Greenwood (@faineg.bsky.social):

Buttholes hate using social media that's exclusively other buttholes because they need to find victims: Bluesky's nuclear blocks and blocklists seem to fairly effectively deprive them of the entertainment.

Faine Greenwood (@faineg.bsky.social):

The other cool thing about Bluesky's effective block functionality and shared blocklists: even if buttholes do establish a beachhead here, it's very easy for the rest of us to block them and ignore them forever, which buttholes tend to find both infuriating and boring.

Dan D. 🍉 (@ddeavver.bsky.social):

Can someone explain what a "nuclear block" is? How does a bluesky block differ from, say, a threads block, or twitter?

Denying hate groups & trolls the Oxygen of Amplification

BlueSky's "Nuclear Block" feature works for this purpose.

We don't dunk on or entertain bigots. They get their fuel supply choked off by the block.

The author wrote that whitepaper in the wake of 4chan trolls duping news media into hoaxes, but it applies to every level of trolling, hatred, harassment, terrorist behaviours
