@tootadmin@pizza.enby.city @iftas@mastodon.iftas.org why fully trust block lists? We all human and may act in our own biases I trust when someone say there is csam on this instance but claims of hate speech are not always true. Racism is obvious, transphobia is obvious but for example tankis would consider support Ukraine right to resist against the Russian invasion to be hate speech,or people opposing Israeli colonial policies are treated as people promoting hatespeech by Zionists

@hiphopheaven@mastodon.social @iftas@mastodon.iftas.org Because we've been moderating for a long time now, and we already had most of this block list implemented. If you know how mastodon and gotosocial moderation works when it comes to block lists, at the time of import, you can check each and every new addition before actually confirming and adding to your instance's block list. It is not instant. We've verified every instance that we block and if anything IFTAS does not go far enough. They only add instances to the DNI list in extreme cases. We also use the TBS 90% heat rating list, which has a fully searchable list of evidence as to why every instance was blocked with screenshots and links to receipts.
