Their Twitter profile does not contain any weird posts I assume their Bluesky profile looked similar. https://x.com/Medo198518
Bsky gets a constant stream of bot-created scam accounts posing as Gazans soliciting donations for food, medicine, shelter etc. Sometimes as many as a dozen created within seconds, all pointing to the same donation-platform URL, with only minimal variations of usernames or post content, sometimes with donation URL obscured using short-link services.
Just like with email spam, scammers and filters are locked in an endless adaptation race. It is almost inevitable that some genuine accounts will trigger false positives when demographics or keywords overlap the flood of scam/spam content.
The situation is also very vulnerable to manipulation by the forces perpetrating Palestinian genocide. Israel’s cyberwarfare goons certainly have the means to manipulate, poison and jam Bsky’s Palestine-adjacent topic space, effectively co-opting and weaponizing Bsky’s own filters against genuine critics of the Palestinian genocide.
P.S. fuck Xitter too lol
So there’s no actual pro-Palestine content on Bsky, only scam begging bots.
Meanwhile on Xitter at least you can see actual content of the genocide.
no actual pro-Palestine content
Not what I said, and twisting nuanced issues into black-and-white absolutes is a classic bad-faith propaganda tactic.
No that’s what the post says.
Context? What did he post there then?
Take anything OP tells you with a bag of salt, they protested Biden and celebrated Trump. They only care about the genocide in Gaza so long as it can be used as a tool to shame the west.
Not sure, but seeing his Twitter profile I doubt it was anything ban worthy.
There is a huge difference of Palestine content on Twitter and (virtually none) on Bluesky. It becomes very obvious that Bluesky enforces some heavy anti Palestinian content censorship.
First of all, yeah, that’s why Mastodon is a superior framework.
Secondly, I can imagine user Geneva_Convenience actually earning that ban.
Bluesky has been absolute shit to Palestinians for like six months now. Just outright banning people for being scammers without a shred of evidence for the claims. The Bluesky head of T&S is a complete piece of trash and has only ever doubled down on his crappy decisions.
