Maybe the only way to figure this out is to try being xenophobic about American culture on there and see if you get censored?
replyIt's dreadfuly simple - Bluesky users can choose what content they want to see - including selecting feeds, algorithms, moderation services etc. This situation is intolerable to people who believe that their right-wing views must be forcefully shoved down users' feeds, because not liking and not wanting to see their shitty content is considered an attack on freedom of speech.
replyThat's not true though. If many people or the mods flag a post, other people cannot see it without clicking - it's covered by a banner. I have a new user on bsky, I never touched any configuration knob and by default I can't see certain posts. Someone decided for me.
replyIf I were truly able to decide what I see I would see every single post as a new user. Then I would have the optuon to opt in to lists, banning / hiding other users etc.
Instead, I'm forcefully opted-in to not seeing what someone else decided I shouldn't see from the start, and I must find the way to opt out.
Didn’t you just say you can click to see it? So you can see it.
replyIt’s hardly any different than those placards they used to put over the swimsuit magazines in the checkout line at the grocery store. No one was stopping you from buying it and seeing all the titties you wanted.
