: I had a post removed from IG because along with a photo of Kimberly Guilfoyle I asked how she could find a plastic surgeon who could add a Y chromosome while letting her keep both Xs, as well as why she had Howdy Doody's cheekbones implanted.
I also may have mentioned that I couldn't tell if she was racing to become Carrot Top or Madame.
For context, it was part of a running IG and Threads thing of roasting politicians and pundits, Guilfoyle in this case.
I appealed.
Fingers crossed.
: I objected to IG's reason for removing the post. They said I was harassing and threatening "someone" and dehumanizing and shaming them. And they removed the post in less than two minutes, and so this was an AI call, which demonstrates how bullshit IG is about their own CoC and ToS.
They can instantly spot "mean" posts but can't instantly spot obvious porn spambot accounts with the same photos and the same links, and even when reported, they take them down less than half the time.
@thedisasterautist They, and their parent company, really like to take down anything political right now. Marking it as otherwise...
Which is in itself a political act, but they do not understand the irony of their actions.
@sentientdessert: But they don't take down a lot of the political stuff.
@thedisasterautist Aye, I believe that too. I would bet there are bots setup to instantly spam report on posts that are negative against the right, which is why they'll go down faster.
Like it functions on twitter.
