I was hoping to find a place where I could post my arts and crafts and meet friends.
Fuck this place though. I don't want another app that doesn't adhere to its own TOS and safety standards so they can accommodate the world's shittiest humans.
I'll be deleting this account soon.

instead of addressing the issue of a transphobic user harassing people on this site it has decided to protect said user against all trans people
bsky moderation is actively LGBTQI+ phobic and i'm now convinced i should fuck off from here

Here's my original email. The list of "sensitive" subjects is scarily broad and also vague, and covers most marginalized people and communities.

Yesterday I pulled overt references of queerness off my site, my very successful store that sells my books that have queer main characters. Because a few days ago, Meta emailed saying my advertising on their platform will be restricted - my site was categorized as "sexuality and gender identity."

There's a *lot* more I could say but this is already a long thread. So I'll just end with, here's a petition:

If you're cis and can tank Having Your Name On A List, it would be great if this petition just kept growing even as Bluesky tries to make all this go away.

If you are cis ("not transgender") I need to explain this to you.
Bluesky today posted this vague thread, announcing-without-spelling-out that they're allowing a writer, net troll and anti-trans activist named Jesse Singal to stay on the platform, despite every trans user saying it makes us unsafe.

In the past month alone, over 12M people joined Bluesky, with daily active users growing 10x. We received more reports in two days than in all of last year, and have integrated new systems and quadrupled our moderation team to try and keep up. Sometimes, we have to work quickly to correct errors.

I’ve been giving folks grace and professional courtesy around this.
But IMO this post alone should warrant an account, PDS level takedown, perma ban.
I know the core mod team is aware of Kiwi Farms as @blacksky.app has received dozens of reports ourselves. And @safety.bsky.app takes those down

You have to understand the context.
The context is that there is an organized, anonymous group, centered around a site named "Kiwifarms", that has as a goal driving trans people to suicide. Singal is *currently* describing himself as working with this group as part of his operations on the site.

BlueSky is trying to monetize so let's show them some numbers:
Reskeet this if you refuse to pay for BlueSky+ until trust & safety decides to prioritize marginalized users.
That's $96 / year of lost revenue for each reskeet...

Over eight and a half years later there has been no editor's note or retraction or apology because cis people do not care. Nothing was ever done in response. I laid my case out then the same as I do now and it didn't matter. No consequences because most cis people don't view us as real people.

Four of the five previous threads have never gained traction even when reaching out to cis people who did deal with this subject matter because the overwhelming majority cis people simply do not care about our suffering or attacks on our personhood and autonomy. Some of y'all do, most of y'all don't

Jesse Singal is a liar and a fraud of a journalist and I will prove it as an unassailable fact in this thread.
I'll also talk about why I don't think BlueSky moderation will do anything about him afterwards so stick around or maybe just skip to that if you don't want to read the boring details.

1/ Two years ago, I stood in the dairy aisle of the last grocery in Pine Ridge, South Dakota. It's the poorest place in the US, with the lowest life expectancy. But the store, like a lot of independent retailers, was vibrant. Signs in English & Lakota. School pride gear on all the walls.
