Twitch updated its Hateful Conduct policy.

"Starting today, using the term “Zionist” to attack or demean another individual or group of people on the basis of their background or religious belief is against our rules."

#StreamerNews #TOSgg
Our Hateful Conduct policy is designed to protect our community from attacks based on a person’s protected characteristics, such as race, nationality, religion, or sexuality. The policy prohibits harmful behaviors, like suggesting that a victim of harm deserved it, or sharing a hateful image or symbol. The language used to cause harm and spread hate changes over time. To ensure our policies adapt to those changes, we review them and how they're applied to prevent those harms. As part of our Hateful Conduct policy, we prohibit the use of terms that may not be harmful or abusive in isolation, but can be used as a slur or to denigrate others in certain contexts. In line with that approach, starting today, using the term “Zionist” to attack or demean another individual or group of people on the basis of their background or religious belief is against our rules. We recognize that “Zionist” and “Zionism” also refer to a political movement. Using the term to refer to the political movement, whether in a supportive or critical way, does not violate our Hateful Conduct policy. Our goal isn’t to stifle conversation about or criticism of an institution or ideology, but to prevent coded hate directed at individuals and groups of people. We include examples of the language we prohibit in our enforcement notes here. We want to make sure that our Hateful Conduct policy continues to be flexible and cover terms that may be used to cause harm to others. We’ll continue to evaluate our policies to ensure that they’re protecting our community effectively. We prohibit the use of terms that may not be harmful or abusive in isolation, but can be used as a slur or to denigrate others in certain contexts. Similar to other terms that may be used as a proxy for a protected group, we treat “Zionists” as a proxy for Jews or Israelis if the word is used in a context to promote harm or violence, or when used to make dehumanizing comparisons or perpetuate antisemitic stereotypes. Comments regarding Zionism that are about the political movement, including criticisms, do not violate our Hateful Conduct Policy. Comments that call for violence against Zionism as a political movement, or comments that would otherwise violate our policies, are not allowed. Prohibited example: Zionist [name of animal]. Allowed example: Zionist settlers keep encroaching Palestinian borders

It’s so funny because you would think she was starting every rally reading Marx the way they’re talking about her very moderate to right wing campaign

Not one person in the red there will ever vote for a Democrat. Never, ever. Catering to their bigotry just demoralizes the majority in blue and makes them less likely to vote.

Trans rights is both the good, moral, righteous path and the savvy political one too.

Hi Bluesky! Glad to be here.

In the wake of the election, it's disheartening to see some Democrats throw the transgender community under the bus.

The data shows that's the wrong approach — voters actually want the government to be less involved in regulating transgender people's lives.
Bar chart of polling data from Data For Progress. Title: Voters Reject Candidates Who Support Anti-Trans Legislation. Description: Which one of the following candidates are you most likely to vote for? Response Options: A) A candidate who says that the government should stay out of people's private lives and that there is too much legislation targeting a small minority of the population B) Don't know C) A candidate who says that we need new laws that restrict access to transgender health care and keep "biological boys" out of girls' sports All likely voters — 57% chose A, 9% chose B, 34% chose C Democrat — 79% chose A, 7% chose B, 14% chose C Independent / Third party — 54% chose A, 12% chose B, 33% chose C Republican — 33% chose A, 9% chose B, 58% chose C October 18–21, 2024 survey of 1,216 likely voters.

Throwing trans people under the bus is morally wrong and it would not do a goddamn thing to help Democrats, it would just demoralize the base even more.

Precisely zero anti-trans bigots are ever going to vote Dem. None. Not a single one.

I am seeing more and more opinions bubbling up about how throwing trans people to the wolves would be a winning strategy for Democrats, and I just want to quickly say: Fuck off with that absolute dog shit.

Okay, let me explain it first.

Ever since we started migrating here from Twitter, I was after a feed about Palestine and couldn't find it. Instead, I had just worked on the #ARMY4Palestine one (click here to pin the new version!) so the people who are connect in the fandom toward the cause
