Sometimes someone will jump into the replies with something that looks dicey, but I'm too lazy to look into and decide whether it's block-worthy or not. and I gotta say the "Jesse singal follower" labeller is incredibly efficient for helping me make that determination
Wendel Schwab (@wendelschwab.bsky.social):
I just use the Jesse Singal followers block list, less extra steps that way.

AZITA (@theeazita.bsky.social):
Problem with that list is it has a depressingly large # of ok accounts, normie professors & writers, people who seem like they just aren't online enough to know you don't just automatically follow back. A labeler warns you but lets you make the ultimate call once they post something shitty.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
The Normie Professors and Writers are only going to wise up when they repeatedly run into blocks and being shunned for enabling a vicious transphobe. They have to need to do the calculus to figure out whether the tiny benefit they get from following him outweighs the consequences.
Populares Stan Account (@mgraalum.bsky.social):
Cauterizing the normies in with Jesse and crew is probably a bad idea, we want to separate him

sometimes you just nod your head and write a little filter.

Tracy (@tracyskates.bsky.social):
She makes a mockery of country music. Trying something new is awesome but do it respectfully. I do like her much better when she stays in her lane.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
To help you out, here:
Replace (silently, in your head) the phrase "… stays in her lane." with "… doesn't get ideas above her station.", which is signifies the same thing, but has a much more obvious connotation, and you may be enlightened.
For max assist, imagine it's 1954.

If you have a moment, please report @countsaintgermain.bsky.social for antisemitism.
I reported them for "Frequently Posts Unwanted Content" and put "antisemitism" in the text box.
Daniel Malmer (@malmer.com):
I don't want to put their antisemitic content in your feed, but you can look through their replies if you want to see or want to report individual posts. The moderation team has a lot of posts to go through, and I believe posts and accounts that get multiple reports are prioritized.
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Reported a smattering & listed the account appropriately!

What does "accelerationist" mean in this context?
🏳️🌈 Scott Kelley Ernest 🏳️⚧️ (@mxscottkernest.bsky.social):
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
A violent extremist who feels that their ideological goals are unreachable under the status quo, and therefore make efforts to promote the acceleration of the decay / destruction of the status quo, to open opportunities. If you can imagine them saying "chaos is a ladder" - accelerationist

How did he get banned from banking and CC
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
Most payments processors disallow transactions in support of violent extremism and hate speech; Banks don't accept customers who are placed on the US No Fly lists because they call for violent invasions of functions protected by the Secret Service (CPAC on a day Trump was speaking); then there's …
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):

(Banned from banking services? that seems made up)
American Rando (@owlectric.bsky.social):
No, that's real. Banks don't HAVE to take you as a customer, since they're all private companies. Piss them off enough and they can refuse to serve you.
John Magee (@eugenebwhitaker.bsky.social):
every bank in the world? seems unlikely. us banks sure. all of the world??less likely. he just knows his base so he's appealing to them in their language
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
He got put on the US No Fly lists because he asked his followers to violently invade CPAC on a day Trump was speaking. He was also in the Capitol on Jan 6. Every bank available in US Jurisdiction won't bank for him.
American Rando (@owlectric.bsky.social):
Also that. He's gotten a lot of federal attention for being an obnoxious Nazi incel terrorist troll and has started facing some actual consequences.

manipulating wikipedia has been a longstanding project of the nazi alt-right. on 4chan they used to post instructions about how to use scripts to fix typos on wikipedia to create a helpful-looking history and parlay that into moderator privileges so you can insert nazi stuff onto the platform
Ewarwoowar (@sidestream.bsky.social):
Manipulating Wikipedia is also a left wing project.

I saw a few people describe Curtis Yarvin as "dumb," despite his reputation as the far-seeing philosopher-king who's inspired Peter Thiel, JD Vance, & many on the New Right. So I did some reading and, well, yikes, "dumb" is an understatement. He's just Lou Dobbs w/ bigger words. For example...
Seth Cotlar (@sethcotlar.bsky.social):
Here we learn that in 2012 it made far more sense to believe that there was widespread anti-Republican voter fraud than it was to believe that THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE FOR THAT CLAIM DESPITE MILLIONS OF HERITAGE FDN DOLLARS SPENT TO PROVE IT. www.unqualified-reservations.org/2012/11/ador...
Seth Cotlar (@sethcotlar.bsky.social):
Here we learn that the problem with the Swift Boat propaganda hoax perpetrated against John Kerry in 2004 was that the mainstream press was too skeptical of it. I'm sorry, wtf? So Yarvin is the smart one because he believed patently obvious bullshit? www.unqualified-reservations.org/2008/01/revi...
Seth Cotlar (@sethcotlar.bsky.social):
Here we learn that Obama was lying about attending Columbia because a few people who went there at the same time didn't remember him. If one wrote this in a situation where there was accountability, they would never work in journ*lism again. www.unqualified-reservations.org/2008/10/did-...
Seth Cotlar (@sethcotlar.bsky.social):
Yarvin's 2011 take on Breveik's act of terroristic/fascistic mass murder was similarly the sort of thing that would get one fired from any situation in which one had human co-workers or democratic accountability of any sort. Instead, this just fired up his tech bro readers. bsky.app/profile/seth...
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
My understanding of Yarvin's take on Breivik's methods & ideology there is that he is using Kissinger's definition of political legitimacy; he is saying, in a prolix way, "people don't stand up to bullies"

While reading this thread, it occurred to me - Yarvin is not smart, he is merely thoroughly versed in the lore of the Torment Nexus, and where someone else might pursue this to oppose the creation of the Torment Nexus, Yarvin does so to map paths to power through the creation of the Torment Nexus

Maximillian Opah Freiherr von Wulfen (@opawulfen.bsky.social):
So has it been dealt with or still ongoing?
Ms. Penny Oaken, SkyWitch (@skywitches.net):
It will go on forever at some level; the question is whether it will be economically infeasible for it to gain traction.
Maximillian Opah Freiherr von Wulfen (@opawulfen.bsky.social):
Maybe the better question was is wikipedia aware of it and combatting it?

I am certain you do not wish to argue that several years ago you assaulted me at Tanglewood Forest. Several of your fellow company members have chased me and thwapped me with Amtgard -legal boffer weapons on Company Road while I was making announcements on behalf of Kingdom Officers.
