Trueanon: it’s disturbing to me how even the seemingly subversive work we attempt it undermined by the inescapable medium that reduces ourselves to an act of production. With our selves as commodities.

RGD: so are Brace and Liz a thing?

They're both valid points imo

The constant struggle of Facebook to try and make it seem like it gives a poo poo about mental health while also trying its best to get people to scroll as much as possible will always kill me. I'm sure it's all silo'ed like you have a few sunny floors in some building dedicated to the people who talk about how much of a difference facebook is making with all of its apps and how they can be used to make the world a better place in a healthy manner and then in the basement is just a room jam-packed with people asking how to make Instagram appeal to 4-year-olds.

There's documentation of fb experimenting with hiding positive posts ftom people's feed, exposing them to nothing but death announcements, political rants, etc. just tinkering around with people's emotions to see if an enless wall of misery would be good for their business metrics

Anyone else remember like 3-4 years ago? I think Vice or someone did a big expose about how the Facebook content moderators were basically all drug-and-sex addicted trainwrecks who were snorting Xanax and banging each other in the stairwells just to cope with the inhumanly hosed up poo poo they were watching all day. Like you have a 6 hour shift and it’s just watching videos of hate crimes and animal mutilation and corpse photos from a fresh car accident and the only person on Earth who gets it is sorting next to you, asking you to join them in the broom closet for some meth and maybe a beej. Just absolutely psycho poo poo.

The Independent UK posted:

The moderators are allotted two 15-minute breaks, one 30-minute lunch break, and nine minutes of “wellness time” during one work day. However, a lot of the time spent on these breaks are for waiting in long bathroom lines where reportedly three bathroom stalls are used for hundreds of workers. Sometimes these stalls are used as a venue for people to have sex to cope with the high stress that comes with watching graphic and offensive content for their job. Some workers also use the facility’s nursing rooms to have sex, which became such an issue last year that the company removed locks from the rooms’ doors.

Content Moderators using sex & drugs to cope with PTSD at work lmao these pricks pay you $15 an hour to sift through pictures of dead bodies and animal abuse

Apparently Facebook’s content moderation is entirely contracted to a single facility in Arizona? Jesus Christ! No wonder it’s impossible to moderate content for non English accounts lol holy poo poo!

You'd think they'd constantly bring up the existence of the Sutherland Springs church shooting because it was the One instance where a Good Guy with a Gun reduced the number if casualties, but because the liberal media basically stopped covering it, so too did the Responsible Gun Owners.
they don’t bring it up because even gun freaks aren’t stupid enough to try to spin ~26 people blown in half with a $600 AR as a “victory” for the second amendment

They keep repeating the hilariously wrong number of self-defensive gun uses per year so it is a bit surprising they never tried it with Sutherland Springers so I do have to chalk it up to everyone forgetting about it an hour after it happened.
