i love what a litmus shinigamieyes is, you know right away how someones bread is buttered when they immediately treat it as a freeze peach versus censorship issue when in reality it’s mostly no-duh stuff like this.
I don’t like it because they named it after magic deadname vision, and I worry about it being used on people like Isabel Fall
I’d bet my butthole that that entry was written by chatgpt
You would probably be wrong, but you could look at the edit history on Wikipedia if you’re really curious what it looked like going back before the chat GPT years.
I’m trying to check, but idk how to do this effectively
I found the page, and from what I can tell it looks like it was created in 2023 anyway https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Witchcraft_in_the_Middle_East&action=history
I stand by my wager
You might be right. Either way we can both agree that that first sentence is truly awful.
What? What? Context?
Shinigami Eyes is a browser extension that marks names of transphobic entities on whatever site you’re on red, including the radical islamist organization Islamic State in this Wikipedia screenshot. OP found the fact that it works on well known religious extremists on Wikipedia humerous.
Somewhere, in a universe next door, OP posted a screenshot making fun of the extension for not working on Islamic State.
For those who aren’t aware of it: “Shinigami Eyes” has become far less reliable and in some cases outright harmful due to the creators of the extension flagging people (yes, even trans people) they personally disagree with. One example is the creators denying the existence of intersex people, thus many advocates for the rights of intersex people are now flagged by Shinigami Eyes.
Hey, all 5 people who know about the extension but nothing about the middle east need to have that information, ok?
What extension?
It keeps track of people or entities who are transphobic by marking them red, like in the picture
Maybe my eyes are fucked, but it just looks like a purple hyperlink to me…
It already conflicts with red wikilinks, which are for links that point to an article that doesn’t exist
