What exactly is bullying? You mean calling someone out who is vulgar and has it coming to them? I say they should allow that. As long as we can block other users I don't see a problem. We need to be able to fight back, even if it means hurt feelings. They're taking away all of our other rights...
The concern is moderation lists, there's been cases where a seemingly innocuous list (eg 'bullies') can be quietly abused by the creator. They start out normal, but then the creator starts adding in other users they personally disagree with but don't fit the criteria of the list.
This leads to accounts that have done nothing wrong being blocked by anyone subscribed to that list, with no recourse.
But how is this bullying? Being blocked by someone you don't know and have never interacted with literally causes nobody any harm.
The problems start when someone you do know is suddenly blocking you lol. If you can't contact that person elsewhere, you're sol. Or like the other reply to the parent comment said, you can end up falsely labelled something nasty. Like a furry might end up on a block list for zoophiles.
"Like a furry might end up on a block list for zoophiles." So someone put the fork back into the kitchen?
Blindly following a list like that means I probably don't wanna interact with them anyway, sounds like a win win to me. General public sees furries as zoophiles anyway so what's different about some list? lol
I’m just thinking that one of the cases I mentioned was a list for csam that started adding furry artists (that was the only reason it got caught). It can interfere with livelihoods. I don’t use moderation lists myself because of stuff like that, easier to just manage it myself
Being put on a list with a label that is false representation. I am not a pornbot for example.
It's never happened to me to me so I don't have much knowledge to have an opinion on this. But your username tells me you're an ally.....
why do you care if some dipshit thinks you are? are you’re worried that they’re correct? if a bunch of idiots create or subscribe to lists you’re on, why is it important to you for them to be required to see or interact with your posts?
No one is required to see my posts. I’m not entitled to anyone’s else content. I like things to be correct. Show me one post of mine where it clearly shows I am a homophobe or transphobe?
if I had to guess, you’ve probably posted, or reposted, or liked a picture of trump or elon or putin kissing each other, or where one of them is dressed like a woman. that’s pretty common for accounts like yours.
Nice assumption Anthony. Don’t guess, show me the post. I’d sincerely like to know so I’m not misrepresenting myself.
I am not a maga troll because I said it’s a privilege and a responsibility to vote 😅🤔🫠
Exactly!😅
