How do we decide if a post could be potentially offensive?

Picture

Just because TFP flags a post as potentially offensive, doesn't mean that it is offensive

Words like "gay" or "stupid" clearly are not offensive in most contexts, but can also be used in ways that are. Ultimately, it's up to you to decide.

Over time, we hope our library and machine learning get smarter at understanding context to reduce the number of posts that get flagged. But we are erring on the side of caution. After all, it only takes one post to change how people view you.

Help us build TFP's living library of words and phrases - #TFP

We are building the most comprehensive library of English words and phrases that could potentially signal that a post is offensive
  • We combined 8 open-source libraries to build the foundation of the TFP library
  • We are engaging with non-profits, educators, health professionals and social justice researchers to get their help in identifying additional words, phrases and contexts
  • Finally, we are turning to you, our community of users, to get your input. You come from a universe of different backgrounds, identities and geographies. 
  • Email us or use #TFPapp in Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to give us feedback or to make your own suggestions.
  • We will take a look and let you know if we add it to the library which is updated frequently

TFP as a tool for social progress

At TFP, we hope that our app can help people think about their language and how it impacts others. 

We all have said and done things we regretted, especially when we were younger or when angry or upset. It's also easier to say things online that you wouldn't ever say to someone in person.

Similarly, our attitudes and beliefs also evolve as we mature - and norms in society change. We all deserve a chance to express who we really are and what we really believe.

TFP aims to catalyze a broader dialogue on acceptable language and behavior. We know there are many gray areas - and areas of legitimate disagreement. But there's nothing more important to society and human relationships than how we communicate. Join the conversation at #TFPapp.
