  Jesse Singal joined bluesky and was in contact with a well known fascist site about what to do about trans people there.

  Then Bluesky moderation rolled out the red carpet and gave him the VIP treatment for it, seemingly only for being a journalist despite his terrible views.

  Here is an article about it: www.advocate.com/business/bluesky-jesse-singal

    What was the “VIP treatment”?

    From the article, it seems like they let him join and get blocked just like anyone else.

      Yeah i dont see a problem unless they remove the blocking feature or force me to view content on my feed I cannot curate and opt out of.
