I don't know whether to laugh or cry at what you said. "Just requires a report".
Okay here is a challenge for you. I'll give you links from 2016 - 2019. Try getting them removed. I have been reporting them for months now and Twitter hasn't acted. Twitter sucks at this. It only removes Right Wing content. But maybe Twitter will be willing to take your report seriously instead of mine. So here is the list:

The ex-PM of Malaysia literally tweeted that Muslims have a right to kill millions of French people for massacres of the past. On Twitter. I am sure nothing of what Trump tweeted matches this racist hate. Yet Trump was banned while the ex-PM of Malaysia deleted his tweet by himself without any repercussions from Twitter.

When it comes to Social Media I have a huge list of things that these companies have done wrong. And it just keeps growing. So when you say "Just requires a report" I feel like laughing at your innocence. I have a list of Instagram accounts that spew anti-Hindu content daily. Have reported them multiple times already. Facebook doesn't remove them. I don't even want to link to them because it is that bad!

What you mean is Twitter doesn't prioritize your singular reports on low engagement tweets from years ago. If they had more engagement they could have more reports. But keep martyring yourself, it results in amusing justifications like thinking there wouldn't be racist people who had clamored for the assassination of the first black president of the United States :) - Also your bringing up that PM is a great example too! Twitter has bent over backwards for politically influential individuals. Twitter was under the impression nothing Trump could do would get his account banned while president, they even said as much! It took 5 deaths at the Capitol during an attempted attack on Congress as a direct result of his actions for them throw in the towel. I mean the man threatened nuclear war over Twitter and Twitter didn't bat an eyelid. Compared to that a poorly worded comment about genocide seems about par?
- shripadk 6y ago> What you mean is Twitter doesn't prioritize reports on low engagement tweets. It is funny you can find these low engagement tweets not a big deal while the threat report that Amazon sent to Parler literally contained a low engagement post too. It wasn't a verified handle that posted that violence induced post. Yet Parler was kicked off of Amazon while you are here providing justifications for Twitter. How does that make you feel? These are the low engagement Parler posts. Can you extend the same justification you gave for Twitter to Parler too? 1. https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2021-01/10/4/asset/91e59bd4811d/sub-buzz-2473-1610252143-7.png?downsize=800:*&output-format=auto&output-quality=auto https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2021-01/10/4... 2. https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2021-01/10/1/asset/d40f0494ab2a/sub-buzz-2307-1610242859-1.png?downsize=800:*&output-format=auto&output-quality=auto https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2021-01/10/1... 3. https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2021-01/10/1/asset/dc52bbdabbcd/sub-buzz-2312-1610242888-1.png?downsize=800:*&output-format=auto&output-quality=auto https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2021-01/10/1...
- BoorishBears 6y agoWait you're telling me that platform with *330 Million* monthly active users has more problems moderating low engagement content than the platform with 4 million MAUs? Say it ain't so! - And also what are you even trying to say, that the reason why Parler was banned was those images? Haha, no. It was because of the ratio of that kind of content to all the content. Turns out if your only differentiator is you allow X that your competitor doesn't allow, you get a ton of X. Whether it's porn, hate speech, illegal products, you name it. You're inviting yourself to become a haven for X. - Also please confirm: You said Twitter only removes Right Wing content" Do you stand by such a statement? Because further discourse with you from me will rely on speaking within the realm of reality. - Reply to both comments since now I'm rate limited: Two comments back to back showing a tendency to read things in the most convenient way... Those images, literally just those images, are not why Parler was banned. Your argument literally relies on the fact! Otherwise those images exist for Twitter and they'd be kicked off! It was those images PLUS context, and you argue the context is they're right leaning, and I argue the context is they refused to censor hate speech and ended up being a haven for it - I literally gave you the reason right there! You allow X, other place doesn't, you'll be swamped with X. Call it game theory, call it human nature, call it whatever you want, that's how it's worked on the internet since time immemorial, I don't get why Parler was supposed different
