discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi
I would like to know what jasonafex did _here_ to get suspended. I know he's a real wankstain, but if he was suspended just for that and not for actions on his instance, then I'm concerned that the incident in September is being justified too.
re: discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi
yes, in the specifics of Jasonafex, I would personally ban him from an instance I'm a moderator of. His behavior is well documented and by that I would consider his presence a threat. Much like the Goldeneye runner who was suspended from GDQ.
But it's not like we can pretend that this hasn't also been an implicit justification of witch-hunting. And, not to point fingers, but from snouts particularly that's personally concerning to me. And I have lingering distrust that folks there are really acting in the best interest of fedi.

re: discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi
@eevee oh, he was just suspended from snouts.online or some other instance he joined.
re: discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi
@eevee the question of "why" remains, of course.
re: discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi

re: discourse re: controversial individuals joining fedi
It sucks feeling like I'm make a stand that appears to be in defense of a dipshit like Jasonafex. But I still don't trust this witch-hunting shit that came over from Twitter months ago, at all.
