Does a verification equate to an endorsement now? I’m strongly against ICE, but as long as ICE exists, then it makes sense to verify their official account. That’s all verification is to me at least, just something to let you know it’s the real _ account rather than an imposter.

Yes, I think it’s an especially good idea to verify them right now. I don’t want some imposter escalating a war.

Do I want them in my spaces? Fuck no. But, that’s the reality of the world.

Yes, platforming Nazis is a bad idea. The correct response would be to ban the account and any similar accounts.

  Normally I’d agree, but ICE is a government organization and since people get their news on social media these days, it makes sense that ICE doesn’t get banned as long as they follow ToS.

    “Normally I’d agree, but slave catchers are government agents and since people get their news from newspapers these days, it makes sense that my local newspaper allow them to run segments about why black people don’t deserve freedom”

    Thus why I mentioned that they must follow the ToS. If they actually did start to post discriminatory content or hate speech on Bluesky, then they should by all means become banned like everyone else would since that would be breaking ToS. Those “gotta catch em all” posts on Twitter is not going to be tolerated by Bluesky…at least I hope. If not, then I suppose you’re right, Mastodon is the only place that won’t platform fascist propaganda…at least not on the main instance

  The only thing I love more than government censoring my internet is corporations censoring my internet 🥰

    I don’t really give a shit who censors Nazis as long as it gets done.
    
    I also would never use Bluesky though.

Never been the case, tho many do interpret it to be that way.
