This setting in @bsky.app is being weaponised by the Far Right.
Comments expressing any frustration with ICE, over Gaza, etc, are being censored.
It is worth disabling this and using other moderation lists until @moderation.bsky.app are less incompetent and employ people who understand context.

The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering
The concentration of AI wealth into the hands of a few tech barons + plutocratic capture ==> unchartered territory
