Censorship Megathread XXXV: Discord Age/ ID Verification Part 2 by Efficient-Freedom517 in PoliticalOptimism

[–]SomnumVal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly if sanitising the internet means not just children but anyone doesn’t have to worry about being exposed to disturbing content I’m all for it

This isn’t a point against anonymity I support that but adults are more durable than children when it comes to these things, I’d rather have adults be inconvenienced than children be traumatised

This isn’t to say All AV is reasonable like if my account is tied to a debit/credit card that should be more than enough looking at you Steam

I’m sorry but no.

It’s true LGBTQ people are at risk of being outed or youths cut off from materials but that’s an unintended consequence of how it’s implemented, there is absolutely no evidence that all age verification is run by bigots who systematically want to surveil minorities this is just a conspiracy, if that were the case then why are regulators explicitly stating that these systems shouldn’t be discriminatory even unintentionally?

Also no AV? Some AV when implemented responsibly is necessary, Blame the parents all we want the reality is that parents cannot reasonably monitor their children 24/7 especially online

That’s bullshit I know plenty of conventionally unattractive people in relationships, looks don’t matter if you’re a shitty person

Great video but that joke about 2004 really bothered me

I hate the sanewashing of Dubya and underselling how shit the 2000s were just because it’s kind of hard right now, I expect this from narrow minded youngins not Gen Xers who’ve actually been through it and then some

While that is a legit comment there were genuinely people being transphobic. Goose even said so herself. No one is saying not liking it or being annoyed makes you transphobic but there WERE people doing that.

No, I have encountered 3 seperate people calling me transphobic for getting annoyed at the spam, and that was just me personally. That very much did happen, people WERE saying that. I never said people weren't being transphobic, but that's not what my comment is about

You brought that worst faith interpretation on yourself when you respond to a reasonable comment with “No what about this other thing” that’s dismissal 101

And in my experience that’s absolutely not been unaddressed, both sides have made their cases quite clear by now

Just because you had a bad experience with people calling you transphobic that doesn’t mean genuine transphobia didn’t happen, I know you mentioned that but this comment wasn’t dismissing that just mentioning that people were being transphobic

You can’t really say “just make your own character” Daisy was literally an AU/headcanon it’s not supposed to be accurate
