You guys hear about that 18 month old baby at a zoo that wandered away from their parents (who were on their phones…), entered a restricted zone, stuck their hand into the wolf enclosure and got bit? The parents are being charged with child endangerment but what I want to know is why the fuck does this keep happening? You do not have to take your toddler to the zoo, especially a one and a half year old who is too young to fully appreciate the zoo. You could have stayed at home and scrolled on your phone while ignoring your baby in an environment containing 0 carnivorous apex predators. You would think the zoo would be one place parents feel the need to constantly supervise their kids but no, they’re like “Oh yeah, honey, go ahead and go swimming in the stingray tank, I’m going to play Candy Crush for 45 minutes.”

reminder that fantasising about child sexual abuse violates tumblr's user guidelines, is reportable, and often results in account terminations, so you should report it

let's look at the Harm to Minors section of Tumblr's User Guidelines together:

according to the above, content that violates the user guidelines, is reportable, and is ground for content removal and account termination includes the following:

content featuring abuse of a minor, including pictures of real people, illustrations, animations, or text

suggestive or sexual content involving a minor or anyone who appears to be a minor, including pictures of real people, illustrations, animations, or text

content facilitating child sexual abuse, including pictures of real people, illustrations, animations, or text

content promoting child sexual abuse or extortion, including pictures of real people, illustrations, animations, or text

according to tumblr's own user guidelines, the text fantasies that are constantly being shared around on here of the sexual abuse of children are reportable offenses that merit removal from this website & potential termination of the account of the posters. it is not content that this website wants to host and, as far as I am aware, never has been. the earliest version I can find of Tumblr's User/Community Guidelines on their own Github is from 2012 and features this wording:

I recommend that you take a few minutes familiarise yourself with the user guidelines if you haven't already. you can know exactly what this website wants (quite a lot) and does not want (not that much) on it so you can understand the platform you're on and what content is considered acceptable, and consider if you want to use it based on that.

if you see content violating any of the user guidelines, but especially the Harm to Minors one highlighted within this post, please report it. children are an especially vulnerable group and there are children on this website. the fantasies that are shared about child abuse by some users of this platform do not exist in a vacuum.

in a previous post I talked about the mass grooming problem this website had pre-pornography ban. as a child on this website in that era I was groomed by adults who are very similar to those trying to normalise sharing pedophilic fantasies on this website today. those who claim to care about children while sharing these fantasies openly on a platform that prohibits said content and that children use do not care about children. entire websites exist that proudly allow for this sort of content to be shared, and yet these users continue to use Tumblr because they want to violate the boundaries of its users, including children, and believe that platform rules do not apply to them. imagine saying Facebook or Instagram are pedojacketing you because they ban you for talking about how much you want to groom children lol.

helping to ensure minors can enjoy this platform without those who wish to harm them being in their midst helps to provide young people the space to survive & thrive online that they may not otherwise have in real life. it helps. if you come across it, please report it.

The moderation is really inconsistent but it seems like content that sexualizes actual children very straightforwardly (references to what's clearly ageplay are moderated much less) is like by far the most enforced text content. Next, very explicit/specific bestiality text content, then posts encouraging cannibalism and other corpse defiling (both of these are reported under the gore category). Encouraging self harm or disordered eating also gets posts removed, they don't seem to delete users for it though almost ever. Most other rules (no encouraging violence, no hate speech, no encouraging illegal behavior, etc) are rarely moderated in text content regardless of how egregious it is or who/what the subject is

also, pedophiles roleplaying as hypersexual children who at times say "i'm 8 years old" etc always get deleted when reported. Report their sexual posts and link a post where they say they're a child, or explain the age is listed in their about, etc. You can also report their friends who use tumblr to ERP with their childsonas as interacting with someone who states they're a child, include a link to both the explicit post and a post where a user says they're a child

The mature content policy also has great info- for example "links or ads for adult affiliate networks or escort/erotic services" are also prohibited. They are super spotty about moderating this unfortunately but you can report anything that links to onlyfans, fansly, etc. Also, ALL content not appropriate for all ages must be labelled mature!! So you can request content labels on anything that isn't appropriate for children and they will typically get added. Most importantly re images:

"Visual depictions of sexually explicit acts or content with an overt focus on genitalia are not allowed on Tumblr. This includes sexual intercourse, masturbation, sexual interactions with toys, and content involving bodily fluids.

We also don’t allow content where aroused genitalia is visible or the primary focus, even if partially covered or beneath clothing."

Visible erections, including under clothing, will pretty much always get deleted eventually (sometimes takes a few rounds of reporting them) and will often get users deleted. Sexual fluids gets them banned much more consistently. They typically only touch manually reported items, so if you see something incredibly egregious that in your experience is reliably moderated, it can be worth your time to individually report everyone who reblogged it 🤓
