@kara_dreamer@witches.town One of the Trump sell-outs, I'd say.

awoo.space - social justice 

This is not Twitter. This is not Tumblr. You have power here, but it isn't through mob power like it has historically had to be.

I promise we *will* listen and take you seriously if you have a problem and bring it to us. If we disagree that it is a problem- at least we will have had a conversation instead of "After reviewing this message, Twitter decided fuck you".

Thank you very much for being here. I appreciate it.

awoo.space - social justice 

Hi friends-

Please remember social justice does not necessarily involve you as the arbitrator and dispenser of said justice, especially in spaces you do not maintain

If you take issue with somebody's content and can't bring yourself to speak to them without yelling or harassment- consider *only* reporting and being very detailed with your feelings and stance

You have a voice here, but it should not be used to chase a member out of the community. Thank you.

@typhlosion No. If anything, it proves that we, in the Social Justice sphere, and in the activism sphere as a whole, must improve if we have any chance of surviving the next 3.5 years..or 7.5 if we're really unlucky.

With that, my part of the discussion is done. Now, back to Amiga stuff.

*deep breath*
The fediverse is a public commons and it is immoral to take from it without consideration of your effects on the sustainability of the network. The use of network salience for political ends should be considered with high degrees of suspicion. The justification of "I must protect my users above all else." is fundamentally a xenophobic argument. The impact on all users must be considered. When those with power have other options we must evaluate their choices in that context.

Unlocking my account. But seriously folks. People talking about kinks arnt hurting you. Its fantasy. Leave them be.

Okay, the origin user who started the whole mess seems to have defederated their instance. I won't name names, so I'm unlocking my account.

Also, I'm seeing the worst of tumblr culture being imported, that stuff is endearing to no one. There's genuinely believing in social justice, and then there's "social justice for brownie points."

I have to say this:

You say it's bad to attack others, but attacking them in the name of Social Justice endears no-one to your cause.

An admonition:

Your tendency to bring drama and start stupid disputes over practically nothing?

Knock that shit off, it's endearing to no one.

Would like to note something:

The same behaviours that made Birdsite shitty?

Y'all are starting to import here

I want to say that even if I don't share your kink I am totally ok with you having it. Kinks are a part of who you are and there is nothing wrong with that.

It would be nice if the fediverse had a formalized conflict resolution process, for users and admins interacting with other users and admins across the instances
