Something weird is happening on Tumblr, where random Jewish posts are being forcibly slapped with the "Mature warning" label. This is bad for several reasons:
Firstly, these posts aren't "mature"
Secondly, a post being labelled as "Mature" hides it from users under the age of 18
Thirdly, blogs that post a lot of content that gets labelled as "mature" may have their whole BLOG marked as "mature". Against their will. Just for being Jewish

Is Tumblr really going through the MAGA phase?? huh???

There’s a lot of leftist antisemites on tumblr, unfortunately. I’m guessing they’re the ones “reporting” the posts as needing to be flagged as mature. The other guess is that because all the posts were talking about antisemitism, that the words used to describe the incidents are triggering the auto-flag system. But I doubt it’s that because posts about Minneapolis and ICE aren’t being flagged.

I think they're doing censorship the same way TikTok does. You can't even say Epstein Files on TikTok anymore.

This may be relevant?

Thus, perhaps, the consequences of such moderation: https://lgbtqia.space/@alice/115499829288185416

Thanks for linking to Alice's post, it illustrates the problem really well.
