re: meta
@shoofle Monads and Myass were part of the problem that have driven a lot of people including PlayVicious folks away from the Fedi with anti-blackness.
re: defedding
@bound@weirder.earth @CaribenxMarciaX Not to mention, being accused of being white all while that is going on.

demanding receipts of behavior from the victims of harassment is tricky business. most of us have long removed ourselves from the harmful party, so that leaves two options when presented with the demand:
1) show old receipts, could go to establishing a pattern, but more often than not is dismissed as old news and "people are allowed to change"
2) post new receipts and brace for the blowback of block evading or stalking, regardless of how the receipts came into our possession, and get dismissed as an aggressor
y'all get it? receipts are useful but not the magic bullet you'd like to think it is. it can and often is turned right back around against us.

if you ask abt setting up a rotation to harass an instance for making a block choice...thats yea, harassment. does what it says on the tin
you're actively saying you believe in harassment.

If you do not believe in a behavior when you're on the receiving end of it, you shouldn't be doing it to others, either.
i dont feel sympathy for ppl who have a toolset of mocking, harassing behavior that they use over n over, and then suddenly its a faux pas when its done to them
i asked questions on PV abt why I was in the wrong for providing ss of my harasser & told i was ss dunking, when 'providing' receipts was the thing to do? multiple ex's of shifting goal posts exists. multiple
@CaribenxMarciaX For real. It's clear that the intent wasn't to verify claims, but to fish for excuses to dismiss them, and/or targets to harass into recanting, leaving.

Yeah no, when you accuse people doing the right thing for community self-defense and painting them as virtue-farming, that is just a huge red flag, one that I am not willing to chance with you.
I have seen too many Gamergaters, Furry Raiders and Altfurs doing this exact same shit in the past.
@extinct@redroo.ml Sweeping statements? You mean like the statement you made about how one side is all white while the other side are all PoC?
This ain't it chief.
re: Fedi Meta | Snouts | PV
@stackingstones@todon.nl Exactly, negative peace is not peace, it is just oppression that went unchallenged.
Fedi Meta | Snouts | PV
@stackingstones@todon.nl indeed. Community self defense feels like consequences, as in toxic people won't get to interact with and abuse vulnerable people any more.
Spite is all about retributive action and causing suffering.
Defederation is usually the former, harassment, gaslighting is always the latter.

@stackingstones@todon.nl WE did a good, and for that they have my thanks.

Here's my favorite, and possibly the most well-known Marilyn Buck poem called "Incommunicado"
it details the repression she and other political prisoners faced in the immediate aftermath of 9/11

@stackingstones@todon.nl indeed, some people can be cruel and spiteful.
Fedi Meta | Snouts | PV
@stackingstones@todon.nl because of the people who were defederated from. I stand behind the decision to defederate, I am just still hurt by the casualties it took to get to that point.
Fedi Meta | Snouts | PV
@stackingstones@todon.nl I was talking about the folks on Snouts and PV who I valued a lot, who are gone.

You're not the only one hurting, everytime your actions get brought up, I get reminded of the friends I had on the Fedi, on Snouts, on PV who had been harassed off by you and your goons. You probably don't care how much it hurts us, and you probably never will.
Fedi Meta | Snouts | PV
Fuck you, you selfish petty bastards. Give us back our spaces and our friends.

That's also why it affects me so much, it reminds me so much of the toxic bs I once was a part of. I see my past self in all of the guilty parties involved, and it distresses me that they would double down so much when they should have known better.

In a way, the reason I am so cavalier about calling him out is because he reminds me so much of myself back when I used to be a Gamergate shithead, doing the same beating my hispanic identity into people's faces thing as a pretext to being aggressively toxic.
This is why the Gamergate comparison is apt, and I stand by it. The question now is, what will it take for him to grow out of it?
