1. La Corrupción Absoluta del Poder de Moderación.
Una crítica recurrente en el archivo es cómo la autoridad, incluso en pequeños espacios online, conduce inevitablemente al abuso. Los moderadores son vistos a menudo como figuras que sucumben a la tentación de los "power trips", utilizando sus herramientas para imponer sesgos personales o simplemente por placer sádico.
- If you ever wonder how people with real power chose to be evil sons of bitches, look no further than a random mod of a community with more than 100 users.
- I was a mod for someone once. I went mad with power. Id love to help, but that level of power is far too overwhelming.
- In my experience the specific kind of petty power that being in charge of moderation brings people is always abused.
- The power tripping rart mod was named neodiogenes and he apparently removed like 20 posts a day and the way he types is exactly like my old dungeon master lmao.
2. El Poder del Usuario Individual: Bloqueo y Curación del Feed.
A pesar de la centralización del poder en las plataformas, muchos usuarios de Bluesky valoran la capacidad de ejercer control personal sobre su experiencia, utilizando herramientas como el bloqueo y la curación de listas para evitar la toxicidad y el contenido no deseado.
- The individual user has so much power here to make sure they only see what they want!
- I can choose whowhat i engage with its such a simple yesno decision. Whowhat i see is like 95 up to me. Thats sick as fuck people should use this power more often.
- It appears the moderation power is with the user. More than any platform. Using this power can be complex. Like a democracy i would question abdicating that power.
- I think bluesky is a good example. When people block immediately rather than engage trolls they lose their power, but not their addiction.
3. La Influencia Desigual de los "Power Users" y las Cuentas Grandes.
El archivo discute cómo el número de seguidores y la influencia otorgan un poder desproporcionado a ciertas cuentas, lo que a menudo resulta en la aplicación de reglas de moderación de manera inconsistente y en la creación de una jerarquía social online.
- Blueskys power users are in favor of violent threats, as long as the people receiving them deserve them.
- The moderation rules of any social media platform are essentially if you have power, you can say whatever you want. If you dont, we will apply the rules to you.
- Youve managed to amass clout, and yes that means you have some amount of power and you know the fucking spider-man line as well as i do, you dont need it repeated to you.
- The already obvious public reveal that every power user on the most popular social media site is just a bunch of bots farming pennies off of shouting slurs vindicates my correct belief that youre an easily scammed rube if you waste time arguing with randos online.
4. Redes Sociales como Escenario de Lucha Política y Verdad.
Se reflexiona sobre la capacidad de las plataformas para silenciar a quienes critican a la autoridad real y cómo el activismo online, aunque a veces se siente inútil, es una forma de ejercer presión sobre las estructuras de poder.
- Its so cool and wonderful that we cant talk about being mad at those with power and authority - those that wont even know youre posting about them - without websites getting mad at us.
- Talking truth to power violates their policies. Free speech is essential for democracy.
- I dont think one bluesky post is going to matter to people with the power to do something about it, let alone the people who support him no matter what.
- The highwire post really is emblematic of the rw idea that political power means you get to dictate societys culture and beliefs.
