#as far as celebrities who’ve been openly discussing i/p jameela jamil has been on the positive side afaik #what I’ve seen from her has been compassionate & humanizing to ppl in both countries & careful to separate govt from the ppl #some takes I’ve seen that have been iffy & some I disagree with but broadly speaking not the worst #but it feels like she’s losing it over her instagram stories being ‘shadow banned’ posting dozens of stories abt & calling it ‘black mirror #like yeah meta has been heavily criticized for allowing ppl to spread misinfo abt global conflicts so training algorithms to deprioritize #content from accounts that are spamming a whole bunch of sensitive content about an ongoing conflict #it’s not a person at the switch saying ‘you talked about palestine specifically so fuck you’ #it’s a algorithm trying to filter content based on datapoints that correlate with a whole bunch of different factors #it could be posting like 20-30 stories in a 24 hour period getting your stories flagged as spam #it could be the algorithm picking up that people click away or mark ‘not interest’ bc they don’t want to see war content from actors #i know i’ve had to actively tell pretty much every platform I’m on repeatedly that I don’t want to see that kind of content on my feed #& yet it still shows up so i get the furstration at the inscrutability of the algorithm & platform inner workings #but the ‘i tried to mute/unmute content & the platform didn’t recognize it’ cuts both ways #and leaning into conspiracism that basically implies the media is being controlled to ‘punish’ ppl for being pro-palestine is dangerous #like yeah that’s the kind of thing platforms *should be deprioritizing* #not content about palestine but the spam & the content with a conspiratorial bent #i/p
