If someone politely questions the history of the holocaust, and I tell them to fuck off, which one of us gets banned?
I like the idea of: a) identify nazi b) put them on a nazi list c) allow users to join/block list if someone inappropriately gets added to a list, there should be a review with the list owner. List owners can’t be mercurial. Maliciously adding “anyone” without evidence would dissolve the list.
I know too well exactly how this plays out. It's Aaron's kind of fallacious reasoning that led to me getting a permanent ban from LinkedIn for responding to and reporting a cishet white male former coworker who was harassing me in my DMs for merely existing as openly genderqueer & neurodivergent.
Major case of Jack Dorsey brain going on in that thread.
You can say bad things nicely - saying them nicely doesn't make them less destructive, but bad things are harder to detect than bad behavior. Speeding tickets are easier to give than other driving misbehaviors that may be more dangerous because violations are clear and provable.
Groypers love to do the "I'm not touching you I'm not touching you" dance we all (those of us with siblings) learned as children.
Objective truth vs relativism. Always good to stand in the room with a truth before propounding ridiculous theories.
“I used very polite language to tell you in a roundabout way that you are not even human. How dare you be rude?”
Hey, there's an actual Nazi *in these replies* but he's not saying anything 'rude,' just using buzzwords, so let's see if the moderation team has any thoughts.
Favoring some groups over others is good, actually.
It's Bluesky. You'd get the ban.
