I know a lot of people really really do not want to have to care about the Jay Madness Discourse.

But it is actually a really bad thing that the CEO of the platform we all decamped to because Elon got transphobic mod madness...

...is now doing transphobic mod madness.
FREE LINK NOW

This is a Black person who has been on Bluesky forever and apparently just got banned for calling Jay transphobic.

We are at the "hurting the mods' feelings is a bannable offense" stage of Jay's meltdown, now
So @spacelawshitpost.me aka Link got banned. I just got text message.

So yeah. We stop saying things are accidents now?

Link of all people?

Apparently Jay said something to him before taking him down. He didn’t even get a chance to reply.

He sent this image.

This is sad.

So many bloody wankers on the blocklist for today. it should be elementary to condemn attacks on random jewish civillians in britain with no connections to israel whatsoever, but *noooo* apparently the best way to oppose israel is for some random arsehole to shout "do you condemn israel" underneath

I just got kicked off of Medicaid and I still don't even have income yet. The safety net is completely gone and not just precarious.
So I asked for help earlier this summer and I've been struggling to actually fundraise, but I'm currently funemployed at least through the end of the summer. I'd appreciate some help. #transcrowdfund #helpsky ko-fi.com/alexmint

You know, i'm honestly kind of surprised it took this long for me to encounter an actual, unironic Stalinist on this site, although it's definitely nice that they seem less present here than they were on twitter, but i guess it had to happen eventually

The Israeli military is bombing Gaza again, breaching the ceasefire. Hundreds of people are already reported killed.

This is not because they could not use diplomacy to achieve the goals that made them agree to the ceasefire.

It is because having achieved them, they can now resume the genocide.

This was a slogan from the very start of the protest and I think sums up why Revolution of Our Times happened, and indeed, why it was 'of our Time'...

Cis "allies", how are you going to stand for us in the face of an oncoming biofascist onslaught when you won't even own up to mistakes? When you prioritize profiting from a video spreading harmful misinformation to and about us?

This is such a low bar.

And YET.

I've been seeing a lot of deeply weird takes as of late from people i otherwise respect that seem to place anything that isn't "high art" as inherently worthless, problematic or immature, and this is profoundly odd to me, because these are entire art-forms that people commit to and pour their hearts

I dunno, maybe the quality of a work of fiction has a stronger relation to how the plot, themes and other elements are handled than if it conforms to a specific genre or not? there's plenty of badly done experimental/boundary-pushing stuff out there because sometimes a good idea is executed poorly,

you can’t talk about how everything is public, advertise tools people build with that information, and then permaban someone the second they publish something embarrassing

reinstate Juni’s account, update your policy to make clear what isn’t allowed, and bump private accounts up the priority list

For a month, there have been harassment attacks using "Rape Lists." It's almost impossible to get these Lists & accounts removed.

I and others have reported this list dozens of times to Bluesky.

Out of desperation I'm posting publicly.

Imperial Japanese soldiers had head hunting competitions to see who could individually cut off the most heads and the high end was above 100.

This is not something you do if you are the good guys.
When I described Israelis hunting Palestinian children for sport I was not exaggerating or being purposefully outrageous. It is literally what the IDF is doing in Gaza. They are actually, literally, shooting civilians for fun.

"We won't even let you have private data here if you're trying to escape an abuser because Everything Should Be Public but we will punish you if you use that data to embarrass our head of T&S for liking porn on his work account" is a hell of a line to draw.

TF, if I'm understanding this right. Extraxting & Posting info from the "everything is public" protocol on app is now a banable offence?

By this logic, clearsky, circles thing, feed builders, dozens of other tools getting bans too?

Ridiculous move by @safety.bsky.app
Hi! Juni ( the creator of this bot ) (@queen-of-the.pelf.ie) was suspended and removed from bluesky for literally no reason. We will be stopping service until my (her) account is reinstated.

While I think it’s important to show how moderation rules are clearly ignored when the targets of harassment are marginalized people and fight on this front, I think it’s clear that no form of moderation that’s impartial towards how oppression occurs in the real world will save us.
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.

You have failed. Well done.
We do not currently take action on accounts that share Bluesky screenshots with commentary, unless that commentary violates our Guidelines. We will take action when someone's private information is shared without their consent, but only when it is personally identifiable and verifiable in-app.
