Some bunnies crew a two-masted ship as they ride across waves on the pages of a giant book, it's pages turning like waves. In front of them, another book's pages turn from a image of a storm to an image of a sunny sky, and one bunny at the bow of the ship points forward excitedly.

Screenshot of tumblr text post by fourohfourlifenotfound August 24 part 1/3: "If we are ever going to stop this, then you guys need to start learning why this happens. And it's not always because some executive made a decision to favor a TERF. It's because the technology is broken in a way TERFs have learned to use to their advantage. So content moderation is a HUGE task. It is incredibly inefficient to manually monitor all user reports-- when you "flag" something as spam or inappropriate or 'inciting harm' (what Blueskye is saying the banned users had in their posts). So what actually happens is that the bulk of it is reviewed by machine. The precise "how" is a bit of a black box (if you say exactly, it makes it more vulnerable to being bypasses), but we generally know it's a bit of machine learning ("ai", but not he chatgpt kind) and a bit of automation. Generically this gets referred to as an "algorithm" (which is a meaningless word I don't have time to unpack here). The TERFs have a formula. A battle plan, if you will. I've been watching them use it for almost a decade. And they play social media sites like a fiddle every single time."

Text post part 2/3: "The way it works is that they coordinate attacks on targets they dislike. (Usually trans people, but ace discourse is a notable example of targets not necessarily fitting that demographic.) They send links to each other of posts to report. They'll flag it for whatever the nearest thing they can is. The blueskye users were wishing ill to JK Rowling, so "inciting harm" was the excuse selected. "Inappropriate or sexually explicit content" is a common selection for other trans content. Then what happens is the content moderation "algorithm" sees a huge influx of reports for a certain post or user. And instead of making a human manually review all of that, it automatically initiates a ban or takedown. And if the "algorithm" has word censorship built in, it will begin to auto-flag for things containing words in posts frequently flagged, so it begins to auto-flag the word trans itself. This has been happening for almost a decade. There was a trans youtuber who proved TERF hater group chats flagged his videos so much that it started auto-demonitizing identical videos with the word trans in the title, but leaving ones without the word alone. I strongly suspect this is why we see huge amounts of trans women banned for no reason on tumblr. And this is clearly what is happening now."

Text post part 3/3: "How do we fix it? There's no easy solution. All the things about the "algorithm" that make moderation easier for the social media platforms are the exact reasons it's so difficult to defeat. It's hard to teach a machine what's a genuine flag and a malicious one. Again, it's been almost a decade since the issue was raised with youtube, and there has yet to be a solution for rooting out malicious coordinated flagging. But here's one thing that can help: get TERFs off of social media. Stop letting them bait you into petty fights. Learn how to identify them. Block and report them. " Response by drtanner: "Blocking TERFs and other assorted bigots is especially effective on bsky, because the block function there is nuclear. In short, if you block someone, not only can they not view your account or any of your posts, but any replies they made on your posts will no longer be viewable by others, even if they haven't personally blocked that user themselves. If they quote you, you can even decouple your post from their quote. In short, blocking someone on bsky produces mutual hiding of content, and it's extremely effective at starving these cunts of oxygen. Bigots who can't convince people to fight with them and whose posts don't gain any traction because they're blocked by everyone and their dog leave the platform, i.e. Jesse Singal. It works, people just need to remember to do it more. Preemptive blocking of dickheads before they start shit with you is the best way to prevent things like this from happening. "

Very interesting algorithm analysis, which explains the repeated problems with content moderation getting in the way of social justice

tldr: it's always good to block a TERF or a white supremacist or any other type of fascist

Panel 1, Nell is unpacking her bag. Panel 2, she holds a Rush tshirt in her hands. Flashback, she's arguing with her mom in panels 3-5, You can't wear that shirt out, it's satanic. Nell Rolls her eyes and sighs, it's not a pentagram for feck's sake, she says. Her mom scolds her as she pulls on her coat, I don't care if it is or isn't, it looks like one, you're going to attract the wrong sorts, you're not leaving the house like that! Nell turns around, yelling in her mom's face, I don't have time for this. I'm going to miss my bus! Please for once just get off my arse and move! The flashback is broken up by a loud cry...
