Asking For a Friend. . . .

Images submitted to the politics stream are run through an algorithm to determine whether they appear to be SFW or not. If they appear to be SFW, the algorithm approves the image and if it appears to be NSFW or contains certain trigger words, the image has to be manually approved. That’s why you’ll see images that get approved quickly while others take longer.

Thanks for the response, OP. My concern has never been for you or other conservatives. It is interesting to know though as the meme I am attaching was made 14 hrs ago and it has been up for 6 hrs marked as NSFW. Why NSFW? Probably 'cause it is of Trump. I love him, liberals hate him. Other memes delayed...'Harry the Hedgehog' and 'Wholesome Cat Content'...23 hrs. submitted, featured for 6 hrs. Can't imagine any of this triggering an algorithm. As for "random" NSFW, that just plain doesn't make ANY sense. Thank you for your time.

Huh, that’s weird. The moderation logs show that when you put in your tags and title was when the NSFW was triggered, but I don’t really see anything that would trigger that. I’ll investigate further, see what comes up.

So I tried making the same image with the same title and tags, I didn’t receive a NSFW tag. Are you sure you didn’t accidentally click on the mark image as NSFW when putting in your title and tags? The mod logs do show that the vBackman account was the one who marked the image as NSFW.

I don't deliberately mark things as NSFW but I don't know if I accidentally hit it or not as it would have been 'an accident', lol. Even still, it was held for an excessive amount of time but I do appreciate your follow up as you are a stand up guy, OP.

If I didn't have all my submissions held that day, I wouldn't have mentioned it. I do believe that everyone should get a fair shake (even conservatives) and freedom to say what one wants to say is paramount. The liberal mods have the right to disagree with pretty much everything I post as I am strongly conservative but if I can put up with listening to stuff like "climate change is the biggest problem we face today", then they can put up with my facts....:) Thanks again for your feedback!

Yes.

No, but mods tend to feature memes that don't suck.

I think the conservative stream is run by liberals! You get far more traction in Real Politics with a crappy meme as you do in the conservative stream with a banger!
