  @PaulYacoubian The team is working to mitigate the volume of violence on Timeline. In the interim, you can mitigate this by disabling Sensitive Media on your account. On the web this, this can be accessed under: Settings → Privacy and safety → Content you see [image]

  @PaulYacoubian @nikitabier I'm all for free speech and not particularly fond of the trigger warning idea, but yeah my timeline is becoming non-stop videos of real humans being murdered in the most heartbreaking ways possible

  There is truly no level of civility or contrition that will stop you ending up on a right-wing hit-list  —  www.wired.com/story/far-ri...  [embedded post]

  And here come calls for political violence to show that political violence is bad, calls for political violence against those who have not to anyone's knowledge actually committed said political violence.  Once you escape truth, anything goes.... www.wired.com/story/far-ri...

  It is truly remarkable that this NYT piece on social media reax fails to report on the large number of MAGA leaders who are openly calling for violence against democrats/liberals.  Journalism malpractice.  —  www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/s...

  Unpopular opinion but I believe part of why Americans are so numb to violence is because we edit around the visceral horror of it.  [image]

  “coming across hypergore videos on a regular basis online while trying to look up Minecraft videos” does not appear to have been good for the collective human psyche, no [embedded post]

  It IS genuinely wild that we live in a world where videos that used to be confined to places like LiveLeaks, are now just instantly placed in front of the general public as mainstream content.  Even reddit would at least tag stuff like that as NSFW.

  idk where to say this so i hope it's alright here.  but what i thought was a video of kirk speaking i clicked on was him getting shot.  —  and i dont like kirk or anything he stood for, but it's still uh seeing a person get killed is difficult.  —  please content warning tag your…

  Social media companies haven't figured out how to stop violence from going viral.  —  (And I have written this exact story after the shootings in Christchurch, Pittsburg, Texas, and countless other moments where deadly violence was caught on camera).  —  www.nytimes.com/2025/09/1…
