I .. don't understand? Are they bad because they verified them? Why the "welcome" comment, that's not what Verification is? Are they "platforming" them? I don't get what is the preferred outcomes?
The verification is from Blue Sky itself saying that the account is indeed ICE agency.
Fuck ICE they should not be having a a platform
I just think there's an opening here to humiliate them more
As fun trolling Fascists is the point is to get them to go away and never come back.
Giving them a verified account is counter to that goal
No, it validates that the information is from a real source when they get banned for hate crimes and the actual real ability for that to happen is much, much more important than the actual minimal dampening of propaganda this proposed solution achieves
Maybe but I have a better idea…don’t give them an account whatsoever.
They want a microblog they can make it themselves.
And soon you understand. Which is best????? Please wake up to moves and Intelligence beyond one step forward, please just this once
