I've sent a constructive email to a company explaining why their #synth GiveAway is problematic due it being Instagram exclusive.

How it 'forces' people to start or keep using a platform & company know for it's many problems. How it doesn't help them, but #Meta instead & goes against their values. Finally I suggested possible alternative options.

More people could politely & constructive explain the problems with #bigtech & suggest other solutions. Please speak up!

For an org focused on Trust & Safety, the @iftas publication "Responding to Self-Harm and Suicidal Content" makes some extremely harmful recommendations.

about.iftas.org/library/respon…

As moderators, we carry authority into our conversations that cannot be set aside. A moderator reaching out to someone facing suicidal ideation is often oppressive, pushing the afflicted away from networks of support.

NEVER call the cops on a minority in crisis!

This harmful document should be removed.

Responding to Self-Harm and Suicidal Content


Table of Contents



Safe and supportive online spaces provide an opportunity for people to talk about suicidal feelings openly and without stigma, and to get help and support. The right response, at the right time, can be lifesaving.

Before You Act


Community administrators and moderators should exercise great caution before contacting police or emergency services in response to self-harm or suicidal content. Contacting law enforcement can result in serious unintended harm, particularly for users who are Black, Indigenous, disabled, LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, or from other marginalised communities. In many cases, police involvement escalates risk rather than mitigates it. Always consider alternative support-based interventions whenever possible.

Never attempt to collect, solicit, or pressure users to disclose identifying information such as their real name, address, phone number, or location for the purpose of alerting emergency services. This can create a significant breach of trust, escalate distress, and potentially violate platform rules or local laws. You should only work with information already available to you through the platform or past voluntary disclosures. Prioritise safeguarding the user’s privacy and autonomy while offering support and signposting to crisis services.

Best Practice Guides


The guide below sets out a recommended best-practice approach to responding to suicidal posts online. It is designed for community managers, moderators or individuals running or facilitating a community online for adults, and will help you provide a safe and supportive response to someone in crisis online.

This document has been developed through consultation with leading experts in online communities, mental health and suicide, as well as community members with experience of seeking support for suicidal feelings online.

Download Responding to suicidal content online: Best-practice guidelines

See also: The Support for Suicidal Individuals on Social and Digital Media free toolkit – developed by the staff of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline to help digital community managers and social media platforms establish safety policies for helping individuals in suicidal crisis.

Reddit Moderator Guidance


Reddit’s guidance for moderators has excellent community resources for dealing with self-harm and suicidal content.


Community Management Resources


Conversations Matter is a practical online resource to support safe and effective community discussions about suicide.


Developer Resources


Koko’s Suicide Prevention Kit provides free resources for everyone in your online community — right when they need it the most. Integration is quick and easy. Their Online Suicide Prevention Kit has two components: A native library (Python, Ruby, Go, PHP) that detects high risk terms and phrases, and an embed that links to free resources and online interventions.

They also maintain an evidence-based keyword list you can use to review terms you’re seeing.


in reply to ✨Soff✨ Mawr

would you be willing to share which of the resources you have an issue with?
in reply to IFTAS

The first linked doc "Responding to suicidal content online: Best-practice guidelines" from the National Sports Performance Association as a start!

The "The Support for Suicidal Individuals on Social and Digital Media free toolkit" which follows it also strongly recommends calling the police on suicidal individuals.

These publications ignore the realities of policing in the modern age.

The Reddit guide is great for users, but should not be followed by staff for reasons aforementioned.

in reply to ✨Soff✨ Mawr

thanks.

That first document is from the National Suicide Prevention Alliance - a UK health organisation (nspa.org.uk/)

The guidance is clear: "If someone doesn’t want to get help themselves, you may have to consider calling 999 for them. This is a serious decision, so make sure you think it through carefully." (it goes on to add more context and decision support)

The second document refers to local emergency services in cases of imminent danger only.

(continued)

in reply to IFTAS

what I think would be appropriate is to add something on the IFTAS page that describes these concerns before visiting/downloading these evidence-based resources.

I will work on some cautionary language to add to that page.

Thank you for the feedback.

in reply to ✨Soff✨ Mawr

Essentially- responding to suicidal users is something that should not be left to admins and moderators for the same reason you don't call people who believe their job is to shoot criminals to respond to a mental health crisis. The perception of authority often severely stifles any potential progress one might make and makes the individual feel unsafe to continue pleading for help.

in reply to ✨Soff✨ Mawr

it absolutely should not be left to admins and moderators, but it does happen, and moderators have asked for expert guidance.

Of note, some countries have "duty to rescue" laws that require action at risk of penalty.

It's a complex problem for moderators worldwide.

Side note, if you have additional resources to consider adding to that page, I'd be very grateful.

in reply to IFTAS

Thank you for this discussion. I appreciate the idea of an IFTAS preamble advising caution and jurisdictional awareness before acting on any advice in a resource documented.

I wanted to agree on the "duty to rescue" and mention that in some areas such as mine, that can be a position that an individual moderator could be in related to other aspects of their life, not specifically a volunteer role moderating a fedi instance ... 1/?

As part of the PBS American Masters series, Man Ray: Prophet of the Avant-Garde covers the life and artwork of this innovative modern artist with both clips of interviews and archival footage of the times he lived in. Born in Brooklyn as Emanuel Radnitsky, he grew discouraged by the New York art world of the early 1900s, changed his name to Man Ray, and moved to Paris. He was embraced by the Dadaists, many of whom later became Surrealists.

Si tuviera que darte un consejo, te diría que nunca dejes de ser tú, que te valores y que te quieras, que te quieras mucho, porque cuando uno se quiere, se es más feliz.

Si tuviera que darte un consejo, te diría que trates con dulzura a los niños y con respeto a los ancianos, que no te calles, que el amor te cautive y que la maldad nunca te deje indiferente.

Si tuviera que darte un consejo, te diría que seas valiente y que persigas tus sueños, sin importarte lo que digan los demás, que te alejes de la gente envidiosa, de los que no te valoran y te acerques a la gente que es feliz,
a los que de verdad te quieren, porque la felicidad es contagiosa.

Si tuviera que darte un consejo, te diría que nunca pierdas el tiempo, porque la vida es un rato y un rato es muy poco.

in reply to Rob

I experienced some of this myself. My dad knew from the time I was a young person that he was going to inherit a significant sum of money. And he told me from a young age that he was going to spend every dollar he had before he died. At the same time, he said that I had to go out and "earn my way" like he did.

Now he's dead. He squandered 90% of what he got on early retirement and alcohol. Rather than investing in the future (kids), he indeed spent it on himself. He didn't EARN 90% of it.

in reply to Rob

I'm 55 and I am angry at my parents for what they did. And the sense of entitlement before they died was breathtaking. This is the attitude that Scott is talking about. And I have seen other people in my life who do not realize why we are suffering so much. The greed of the boomers has gutted the American dream.

I'm not saying that my dad shouldn't have spent some of the money on himself. But like his ancestors who owned a farm, he should have given some thought to the future.

in reply to Rob

The problem pervades politics and our society. As long as it continues, we are going to see more division and problems.
in reply to Rob

And, by the way, I am turned out fine (although I would like to retire early). But unlike my dad, I worry about my kids future and what I can give them. Because they are going to need it.

And something I learned about my relationship with my father. There comes a time in life when I will need my kids more than they need me. My parents didn't plan for that day. And it was rough for them when it came.

I'm not going to make that mistake.

Also: Yours is a version where most of the other hallucination errors were "conveniently" cut out. Here is the original version where you can see the for example the street light in the far background at the parking lot suddenly move around and appear in front of the kangaroo. Ah and try to read the text on the doormat. It's gibberish.
