Put another way, the entire adult userbase is going to have to upload their IDs to sketchy third-party companies and link their identities to their online activity to stop a few dozen kids from accessing a platform that is mainly left-leaning news and commentary. What problem is this solving?

Important article by @internetmaggie.com on incels' anti-porn rhetoric as evident in the Montreal shooter's rambling manifesto. Misogyny (& hatred of women's sexuality, autonomy & rights), not anti-cop sentiment is key here. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Shots were fired into the Aylo building in Montreal, allegedly by an incel with a violent manifesto calling for a new order to curtail the economic and sexual freedoms of women. montrealgazette.com/news/local-c...

Manifesto laden with incel ideology linked to Côte-des-Neiges shooting

A 104-page document advocates for use of terror in creating "new order."

montrealgazette.com

“Some have pointed to the fact that the Montreal shooter quoted Karl Marx to suggest he was a Marxist — but Marx argued in favour of women’s liberation and against gender inequality. “Don’t let anyone fool you: incel ideology is incompatible with progressive politics.”

Right-wing rage-bait got everything wrong about the Montreal shooting

Monday’s shooting in Montreal points to a problem that Canada’s right wing doesn’t want to talk about: the psychopathic hatred of women.

Blaming sex workers for society's ills is as old as the profession itself. Never mind that men are the primary consumers! Even before the Montreal shooting, I saw so many posts about "Girls! Don't be Bonnie Blue!" when there's only 1 Bonnie Blue but 1,000 men who signed up to have sex with her.

“Monday’s shooting spree occurred in the same Montreal borough as Canada’s worst single incident of femicide: the Polytechnique Massacre. “The killer — once again — is a white man. “The victims — once again — are exactly the people the far right blames for all their troubles.”

In Ottawa, the police chief had to make a 7-minute video telling officers to stop using databases and surveillance tools to look up women they found attractive out in the world. This is a major problem *everywhere* and one that has only gotten worse as police have gotten access to more technology.

Given the awful and dehumanizing rhetoric of 'antiporn activists', @samleecole.bsky.social predicted this outcome years ago.

AI companies are now getting accommodations that disabled people spent decades fighting for. Jonathan Zong and Frank Elavsky argue this reflects a broader pattern, where accessibility gains become politically possible only once industry needs the same changes.

The Web Is Being Made Accessible for AI, Not People

Jonathan Zong and Frank Elavsky critique how AI-driven infrastructure changes obscure accessibility and reveal whose needs society chooses to prioritize.

LISTEN UP! YOU NEED TO DO THIS ASAP!!! If you support marginalized people, do this. If you support sex workers, do this. If you support artists, do this. If you say "fuck censorship", do this. I can't begin to tell you how important this is, ya'll.

Anti-sex censorship online doesn't only suppress adult content - it shapes what gets made, seen, and studied. Age-ID laws throttle a wide range of cultural & academic outputs, making it hard for artists & scholars to share our work! @fsc.bsky.social www.freespeechcoalition.com/scholars

Moral judgment has no place in deciding who gets to bank or not

By treating sex-work earnings as criminal proceeds, banks have too much power to decide who gets to use the economic infrastructure that makes participation in society possible
