This is why I like Minds

"What is the Minds Jury System?
Moderation should be based on fair process and not the subjectivity of our staff. It is essential that the community has a voice in this process over what content gets moderated at what does not." minds.com/Timcast
Whether this will work out as hoped is to be seen.

But this is a forward thinking idea that can solve everyone's issues

Moderating real harassment, taking down illegal activity

Letting the community decide, not an unaccountable billionaire and their staff

I'm going to be setting up a fact checker / database of journalists and news orgs.

We will randomly sample 100 articles and give a score of X/100

Any violation of journalistic ethics will result in a strike.
Thus scores will look like

73/100 articles are credible and ethical
We will likely do a new random sampling every 6 months and re review the site and/or journalist

Article not labeled opinion? Strike
Fake news? Strike
Misrepresenting data? Strike
We will publish ALL analyses in a spread sheet of every article, the articles will be archived.

There will be an explanation for our reason for striking an article.

Carlos Maza of Vox has called for the physical assault of people in order to humiliate them. He then is outraged that someone makes fun of him online resulting in his humiliation.

Maza insinuates then that an authority or 'principal' like figure needs to enforce rules
Maza is a hypocrite and authoritarian trying to use his identity to get someone banned because they criticized him.

I'm sorry but you can't simultaneously encourage nearly 100k people to assault others then get mad someone called you names
The fact that he, a grown adult with access to one of the biggest platforms in the world, is calling for a "teacher or principal" like figure to enforce the rules he demands while also calling for assault shows him to be an authoritarian.

Fact Checker incorrectly smears man as Nazi, resigns.
Failed fact checker gets job at Activist organization
Activist gets job teaching Journalism at University
Activist class canceled due to low enrollment

Twitterati Left outraged this was reported on
University students even criticized the decision.

Why a disgraced fact checker turned activist was given a teaching role at a university is newsworthy. Following up on the cancellation is also newsworthy.

What a coincidence that 'journalists' are outraged that Jon reported this
Its because these 'journalists' are the same type of activist infiltrating the media space.

The same people who write smears and fake news, the same people who call companies and ask why certain groups are using these services and then get them banned

If we are going to get out of the messes we are in, I believe we have to start with a more accurate image of ourselves and the world of which we are a part. A thread about #system boundaries, abortion bans, climate change, gun safety, and more.
We each are flows, more like flames or whirlpools than rocks or billiard balls, in constant exchange with the 'environment. Your 'boundaries' are so much more fluid than everyday perception (in this western industrial growth society at least) suggests.
I mean this literally - not metaphorically. What was 'not you' moments before you drank a glass of water now is 'you.'

1/ A few days ago, my mom sent me an text, “Hey Gina, did you see the Mark Zuckerberg news? He said Facebook was going to focus on privacy and groups. Hope you’re great!”
2/ Like my mother, I had heard the news. Unlike my mother, I happen to be an expert on building groups around interests and passions on platforms other than Facebook.
3/ I’m a passionate believer that there should be millions of different social networks for every conceivable interest, goal, purpose, and lifestyle.

Today.. the political influence of Jewish chauvinism & religious fanaticism is much greater than that of antisemitism.

Israel Shahak, 1994
Nor can one find in the numerous English-language "Jewish histories" the elementary facts about the attitude of Jewish mysticism (so fashionable at present in certain quarters) to non-Jews...

Israel Shahak
..they [non-Jews] are considered to be, literally, limbs of Satan, and..the few non-satanic individuals among them (that is, those who convert to Judaism) are in reality "Jewish souls" who got lost when Satan violated the Holy Lady .. in her heavenly abode.

though I am a big fan of the "for the love of god, read another book" meme wrt Harry Potter, which I have only seen and never read, I am going to break my own rule to make some comedy. here we go
now that the Hollywood Walk of Fame horcrux is down, let's get Matthew Lewis a White House press pass and see what Sarah Sanders does
this concludes the revised and improved version of my already bad Harry Potter joke

thank you for your understanding
