用删帖掩盖算法的血腥共谋Deleting Posts to Mask the Algorithmic Complicity
七死一伤的惨剧发生后，英国国防大臣 Luke Pollard 迅速要求社交媒体平台删除“庆祝”危险驾驶的帖子。这套逻辑极其典型的政府式 PR：将 structural violence（结构性暴力）简化为 cultural violence（文化暴力）的个案，试图通过清理表层的“叙事”来解决深层的“机制”。
危险驾驶视频之所以在平台上 prevalent，不是因为几个年轻人突然变得疯狂，而是因为平台的算法在进行一次极其精准的博弈。算法的底层逻辑是 attention economy（注意力经济），它通过捕捉人类最原始的恐惧与刺激来制造粘性。在这种机制下，逆行、飙车、死亡威胁被转化为一种 weaponized expression（武器化的表达），旨在夺取认知入口并换取金融回报。平台在口头上禁止危险行为，在代码层面却通过推送此类内容来最大化 views。这就是最典型的 complicity（共谋）：平台通过扮演“监管者”的角色来逃避立法，但在潜意识里，它们是这场存在性战争中最大的获利者。
Pollard 提到的 Online Safety Act 只是在 direct 层面对结果进行修补。如果算法依然将“刺激”定义为“优质内容”，那么即便删除了一个视频，也会有无数个克隆号在不同维度地复刻这种死亡美学。当平台将人性中的破坏欲量化为 KPI 时，每一条被推送的危险驾驶视频，本质上都是平台在用他人的生命为自己的财报注资。
真正的最优解不是删帖，而是拆掉那个将死亡流量化的算法黑盒。但这对平台来说是主体性的自杀，所以它们会继续在“自我监管”的谎言中与政府共谋，直到下一次碰撞发生。
After a fatal crash claiming seven lives, UK Minister Luke Pollard rushed to demand the removal of posts 'celebrating' dangerous driving. This is a classic government PR move: reducing structural violence to a case of cultural violence, attempting to solve a systemic mechanism by scrubbing surface-level 'narratives.'
Dangerous driving videos are prevalent not because a few youths suddenly became insane, but because the platform's algorithms are engaged in a precise game. The core logic is the attention economy, which captures primal human fear and stimulation to build stickiness. In this framework, wrong-way driving and death-defying stunts are converted into weaponized expression, designed to seize cognitive entry points and exchange them for financial gain. Platforms claim to prohibit dangerous behavior in words, while their code maximizes views by pushing exactly such content. This is pure complicity: platforms play the role of 'regulator' to evade legislation, while subconsciously remaining the biggest winners in this existential war.
Pollard's mention of the Online Safety Act is merely a patch at the direct layer of results. As long as the algorithm continues to define 'stimulation' as 'high-quality content,' deleting one video will only lead to countless cloned accounts replicating this aesthetics of death. When platforms quantify the human urge for destruction as a KPI, every pushed video of dangerous driving is essentially the platform investing in its financial report using other people's lives.
The true optimal expression is not deleting posts, but dismantling the algorithmic black box that monetizes death. But for the platforms, that would be a suicide of their subjectivity. Thus, they will continue to collude with the government under the lie of 'self-regulation,' until the next collision occurs.
