I just had to manually moderate @hypebot for the first time due to it reposting Holocaust denial by a well known "open/small web" advocate. Given how that person is on antisemitic rants for days now, they're blocked.
(I really don't want to have to do this a lot. @hypebot is intended to show what is regardless of what I agree with or not.
But that doesn't mean there are no lines. Transphobia, Anti-LGBTQIA shit, racism, antisemitism are all things I will not tolerate should I see them. Please tell me if something like that is reposted by hypebot.)
@cferdinandi How dare you not think waging a war in the enemy’s territory that has mainly targeted civilians - particularly children - and hospitals, that has had a disproportionate death toll (like literally every Israeli retaliation before that), that is also currently starving them to death, isn’t self-defense?! How dare you call this a genocide?!
@tante Feel free to block me for “antisemitism” as well 😘😘
@tante I totally agree. Particularly since @hypebot itself, at least as I understand it, is not an apolitical project intended to show the breadth of the Fediverse, but to bring interesting put possibly separate 'communities' into a view.
@tante@hypebot as it should be! Let's hope this is enough to the need for your intervention at a bearable minimum.
Do you know on which server this particular post trended? Perhaps, if that happens again from the same server, that's an indication to take the server out of the list.
