Americans considering supporting Gavin Newsom should take one look at the UK under Keir Starmer, because that's what you're getting in a few years.
You can choose a better candidate than a sleazy old transphobe.

In light of the recent new arrivals to Bluesky, I've set up a second list.
This is because I know from prior conversations that some of you want to keep up with posts from these bodies and others don't, so this seemed like the best way forward.
Hopefully, this is helpful for you all.

They could have the best community guidelines in the world, and it still wouldn't make a difference if they continue to ignore them in order to protect certain accounts and punish others
(And these are far from the best community guidelines in the world)

Building Healthier Social Media: Updated Guidelines and New Features - Bluesky
Public discourse on social media has grown toxic and divisive, but unlike other platforms, Bluesky is building a social web that empowers people instead of exploiting them.

The last couple of days have made it abundantly clear that Bluesky has two tiers of moderation (for any who missed the way they treat Palestinian accounts, Black accounts and trans accounts).
White right wing voices will be prioritised, every single time.

Bluesky has banned Aftermath journalist Nathan Grayson for 24 hours for quote tweeting his own article with the words "rest in piss," which apparently is now against the rules here.

some racist lady threatened to punch me in the mouth last week. Her punk ass is still here. So let's be so serious about who gets protected by these "no violence" decrees and who Bluesky tells to get fucked
so i can just report people who tell me to "enjoy the camps" and you'll ban them?

Where is this focus for those celebrating the deaths of Palestinian children on Bluesky?
Where is this focus for the threats against trans people?
Where were the thoughts for the Hortmans?
Why does it matter more when a fascist dies?

Violence is always unacceptable, and threats of violence have no place in public discourse. Our thoughts are with Charlie Kirk and his family.

Hey @brexitblocklist.bsky.social you've got the addition of @dangermike.bsky.social incorrect here. Definitely shouldn't be on the anti-LGBTQ bigotry, Toxic, or Disinformation lists.
He's a very strong ally and has been for years. I'd heavily recommend reversing these additions.

Expecting a candidate to demonstrate they are not transphobic in order to earn my vote is not a purity test. It's a basic humanity test.

Jessie Gender's ban shows what we all know. Bluesky, especially its Trust & Safety team, will only begrudgingly protect trans people and will prioritise the feelings of bigots.
If they had ever done their job, this list wouldn't need to exist. But they're getting worse all the time.

Deliberately misgender trans people?
That's transphobic.
Defend someone who is deliberately nisgendering trans people and saying it isn't transphobic?
Guess what: that's also transphobic.

Since this is regularly coming up, a quick clarification:
Showing support for the transphobia of Gavin Newsom or sharing similar views: will add to the list.
A generic discussion over voting for the lesser evil if he theoretically becomes the candidate: not adding to the list.

Ok, so there's some weird large-scale harassment based on disinformation and lies I wanted to clear up. The account @jerrydemocrat.bsky.social recently followed me, and it already has thousands of followers despite being created only four days ago. This felt abnormal so I looked deeper.

I'm disappointed that the conversation is about whether we should call folks 'pregnant people' or not.
The news reader live-manipulated a quote from a researcher who used inclusive language, because she was so irked. Unprofessional behaviour driven by hate.

It's always helpful when another UK journalist posts a silly take on here, because then I can spot they're about and whether they need to be added to the list for a prior transphobic article.

Re. Reduxx: obviously added, and the creator. Also everyone who reposted who liked a post. I have also gone through all followers of the account and anyone who is not specifically pro-trans rights has been added, because you do not follow an account like that by accident.

A plea. Please stop calling it interim guidance. It's not guidance, and the EHRC don't call it that. It's an "interim update".
They only say that the guidance remains forthcoming.
This is genuinely driving me potty (more than I usually am).

Lots of useless UK journalists have been trying to both sides the reaction to the UK Supreme Court ruling on Wednesday.
I've seen a huge influx of burner accounts solely set up to inflict pain on trans people.
These journalists should ask themselves if that's the actions of a non-bigoted group.
