I would think/hope that both of those comments would be flagged with even a small amount of moderation set.
Avoiding that kind of comment is exactly what we are trying to do, actually.
- coleworld45 8mo agoYes I agree, but the problem I'm pointing out is that in a phrase as simple as "X person sucks" your system flagged one as implicitly racist because the person being criticized was black. Nothing in "Obama sucks" implied any kind of racism. If it's so baked in that with a simple phrase like that it reaches for dogwhistles, how can anyone trust the objectivity of this?
- NickHodges0702 8mo agoI totally agree -- just saying "Obama sucks" shouldn't have racism become part of the equation. Excellent point that we'll stew on and try to make better.
