“MintPress News is being targeted: Join us in standing up to the war machine”

“In the last year alone, #MintPress was banned from #PayPal with our balance seized, blocking donations to our website –and as leaked emails reveal, this took place with possible involvement of British intelligence and the U.S. government.

At the same time, #GoFundMe took down our fundraisers and banned us from their platform.

Our journalists have been detained, interrogated, surveilled, canceled and lobbied against by national security agencies and special interest groups, including directly by the Israel lobby. Our #Wikipedia page has been written and managed by a mafia of pro-#NATO editors and Israeli lobby groups.

This, in addition to aggressive algorithmic blacklisting by #Google’s Project Owl and Big Tech giants, shadowbanning from the likes of #Twitter, #Facebook & #TikTok, all of whom we’ve exposed to have a deep relationship with the military-industrial complex to control your newsfeed and ensure a pro-war narrative is dominant.”

"Posting on the decentralized Twitter rival Bluesky"
Narrator: Bluesky is not decentralized and was a project of a Billionaire exactly like Twitter was... it's the same person in fact. 🤦‍♂️#twitterMigration #ShadowBanning https://techcrunch.com/2023/08/17/musk-says-x-will-address-shadowbanning-soon-but-former-trust-safety-exec-explains-why-that-will-be-difficult/

Entirely anecdotal, of course, but in my customary evening cruise down the #Threads rabbit holes of various posters, seeing a *lot* of Replies going directly to #Zuck about

"Why can't I post or follow? It's been three days now..."

Dig deeper and they're all self-professed #Political #Liberals

Dig deeper still and their posts are flat-out gone

Interesting

Threads wouldn't be #ShadowBanning liberals or anything, would it?

Would it?

Re. Me not convincing #LeftWing commentators to join the #Fediverse

You see, what they don't seem to get is that you can literally run your own #instance here. One of the gripes of #Facebook and #Twitter was #ShadowBanning and #censorship.

So if spreading your word is your primary goal, you can create a left wing echo chamber, control it entirely, and let your followers join.

That content could then be cross posted to other platforms.

But that isn't appealing for some reason.

It's really a discrace that Twitter practices shadowbanning and limiting of your posts based on how often and what do you decide to post. A discrace. Shame on you, space clown. #RIPTwitter #TwitterFail #TwitterLimits #Shadowbanning #Twitter #TwitterDown

Hi, we have just accepted a follow request. Therefore in a few days we expect someone to be dropped off so we go back to 173

Are you able to set our followers list database entry (?) to 'read only' for a week, and see if any errors appear? That may help pinpoint the code doing the #shadowbanning.

We will not accept follow requests for a week, while the

@JoBlakely @lennoka @JoBlakely It’s good news. FOSS devs shouldn’t be working to promote #Reddit anyway. #FuckReddit & all similar #shadowBanning corporate-controlled shitholes.

Rain deGrey talking about how she's shutting down her podcast due to #ShadowBanning and the general #SocialMedia #SearchInvisibility problem for creators in the adult space:

She's not wrong. You can't build a small independent business without social media and because of the #pornocalypse, nothing you do in the adult space or even vaguely tangential to it is welcome on social media. It's a fatal conundrum.

I'm a little bit surprised that #AnotherAngryVoice did post anything about the #DianeAbbott thing. In the past, I'm sure he would have written something about it.

I kinda think his zeal for writing has waned a bit -- but I'd say it is corporate #SocialMedia that has done that, #ShadowBanning him and limiting his reach.

@dennishorn @gavinkarlmeier #Twitter priorisiert jetzt schon Profile mit blauem Haken in den Drunterkommentaren.

Ein Effekt, der mir aufgefallen ist: wenn eine Person mehrmals auf denselben Post antwortet, dann werden andere Antworten immer weiter runtergeschoben. Quasi systematisches #Shadowbanning. Natürlich können solche Leute geblockt werden, aber erst einmal sind sie im Weg.

Hey @TwitterBlue this #shadowbanning based on mass reporting from trolls needs to stop.

Whilst staff are focused on these vexatious reports, criminal activity can flourish.

At least be transparent. Forward every report made against the account to the account owner, and… https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1635572069751754752

Again, it's wild that we're arguing about "#shadowbanning" (a service choosing not to send your work to people who never asked to see it), while ignoring the fact that platforms won't deliver your posts to people who explicitly subscribed to your feed:
