It's almost 5 years to the day since I've been trying to scream and warn people about the "alt right". It's been even longer for the black women who outed
#yourslipisshowing as an *chan op. Even longer for other marginalized people. It's not new. It's not out of nowhere.Show this thread -
It's like
#yourslipisshowing will be a permanent tagline for social media https://twitter.com/prof_gabriele/status/1310906088561283072 …

It is profoundly disappointing that this article didn't credit the work of
@sassycrass@so_treu &@Blackamazon, who have been on this since 2014 (#YourSlipIsShowing). Instead they interview 3 white guys. As a white guy, let me just say: Erasure of Black women's work is real. https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1316098150516633600 … -
I'm gonna say - again - that there is some bizarre impulse, born of an insecurity SPECIFIC to White American men, that makes them blatantly ignore or straight-up erase the Black labor that created
#YourSlipIsShowing. That...COLUMBUS impulse. That inability to not be deemed FIRST.Show this thread -
Many of y'all have been here with me since before

Hey, so. If you're well-funded, individually or institutionally, and you'd like to pick my brain over
#YourSlipIsShowing, and/or hear my thoughts regarding current and future disinformation, strategies in combating it, my biggest concerns and fears thus far, and so on? Pay. Me.Show this thread -

Before Gamergate, before the 2016 election, the Black women behind
#YourSlipIsShowing saw the alt-right threat coming. https://slate.com/technology/2019/04/black-feminists-alt-right-twitter-gamergate.html … -
I need y'all to get familiar with
#yourslipisshowing. IMMEDIATELY. It is of the utmost importance that we ALL become aware of the work that's been done around this because they are *still* using it to astroturf conversations that inevitably will get broadcast by large platforms.Show this thread -
The social dilemma was the whitest documentary, it was also at least 5 years late. No mention of
#yourslipisshowing or any of the other work Black women did in the tech space to warn us about the dangers of these apps. I don't want the people who created this problem to solve it!Show this thread -
Reeeally trying hard not to remember that folks paid a gaggle of White men with NO PROVEN EXPERIENCE at spotting and/or tagging disruptive, harmful accounts 20 MILLION DAGGONE DOLLARS to create a phony account detecting tool with a laughably low accuracy rate.

Really interesting that there are new transphobic accounts pretending to be Black harassing Katelyn here. Falls in line with the increase of transphobic accounts trying to hide the racism of TERFs and white supremacist logic of a gender binary.

Every appeal to Twitter to “do something” about racism ends up with Twitter implementing something that makes it 10x worse. We have been here from Gamergate to
#yourslipisshowing and beyond... we have explained all the ways far right racist trolls were using liberal mainstream...Show this thread -

Before GamerGate, before the 2016 election and before Charlottesville, black women spotted the violent threat that trolling posed. Me on

So the
woman of color who uses such well-known Black terminology like “Ooook,” is suddenly a woke white woman.
Funny how that works.

Before the 2016 election, Black feminists saw the threat of political trolls. The trolls presented themselves online as "Black Angry women." Then, real Black women organized & began marking troll accounts with the hashtag
