Facebook and Twitter get a lot of flak for troll content, but what about blind? - COVID misinformation, antivax BS - election deniers - CCP propaganda - obvious Russian trolls It's all here, and not only seems to be worse than on other platforms, but people who call that stuff out eventually get banned. So it seems like management here is engaged in the trolling. Is blind ultimately controlled by trolls? Linked to the CCP? Run with Russian oligarch money?
What are you on bro this app is majority Indian
You mean anti-non-immigrant? Every damn post here assumes others are immigrants in the US.
Still better than twitter.
Twitter doesn’t exactly set a high standard for itself
Literally never seen any of that wtf are you talking about
I haven’t even been on this app that long and seen it all. Some get deleted after a few hours though
All day every day, are we on the same app?
Blind is great. People are actually honest about their perspective.
Are they? I think a lot of the Russian and CCP trolls know they are posting lies. Some of the COVID deniers may believe what they post. At this point the election deniers also know they are full of it.
How do you know the Russian and CCP "trolls" don't believe what they're saying? Same for covid and election. I think it's great that people share their "unacceptable" perspectives here even if I think they're wrong and stupid, it's better than believing it silently and never talking about it.
Blind is a tough love kind of app— you should have a thick skin on here, but you’ll get information and insight that is tremendously valuable. Y’all go on dunking on Best Buy, it’s worse than you could even imagine, just keep spilling the inside industry tea.
It's not the app bro, we humans' are innately toxic. Blind is cool by far.
People who disagree with approved thought are not toxic
Contrarianism doesn’t make you smarter. All too often it makes people look like Redditors who discovered atheism circa 2010 or so. I can’t wait for the “in this moment I am euphoric” post that’ll rock Blind to its core.
Not asking questions makes you a sheep
This is nothing compared to Twitter
Dumb. Facebook and Twitter is full of raging morons. Blind has its fair share of morons, but far fewer raging morons and by extension is less aggravating of an app to use. Less toxic.
The pseudoanonymity makes this app basically like a SWE 4chan. “The posts here are a work of fiction and falsehood. Only a fool would take things posted here as fact.”
Sure, but the moderators here ban the people who confront the trolls, whereas on other platforms they either do nothing or eventually ban the trolls.
It’s pretty bad. The guy from a couple weeks ago who said that 400K base pay is “middle class” absolutely blew my mind, and that’s to say nothing of some people here being flagrantly racist against people from India, or being hilariously butthurt about employer vaccine req’s in an at-will employment state… Lurking is fun, but in a watch-the-circus kind of way.
