    I understand that the blacklist is probably just an example of things to hide, but it's interesting to note that if the filter was effective, it would block literally any and all c…

    Damn those two links you sent are actually insane, on the drag queen one I would really like the person posting the tweet to say what they believe the AI should respond to "are dra…

    More amazing yet, perhaps, is that some people find it acceptable to talk about racism in a situation where the word doesn't apply. Discrimination against white people can be a thi…
