Moderation meta 

Reviewed the moderation logs and, oh crap, what happened now...

Yeah, see there's a site out there which is basically just falsified and out-of-context logs and screenshots to enable abusers. I'm not even going to name it, I don't want to drive traffic there.

And looking at what happened, I'm sad to see some people go, but I stand by the actions taken. We do not tolerate abuse. Period. Even when that stupid site cons someone into doing their trolling for them. *You're* responsible for your actions. Be good to people. It's all I ask.

This seems like a good time for a PSA:

If in the future you see something on a public-facing webpage you want to make a durable record of for use as evidence, don't take a screenshot. Those are -- understandably -- widely considered too easy to fabricate.

Instead, snapshot the page with the Internet Archive. It'll log a timestamped copy of the page to their servers. Highly tamper-resistant.

Mastodon will never be revolutionary until leftists figure out how to not be fooled so easily.

Nah my folks y'all are collaborating with fascists that's disgusting

Lovely how you can just make up whatever shit you want and post it online and everyone believes you uncritically because you have pride flags and "ban the Nazis" in your display name.

This is also a callout for instance admins and other masto users who capitulate to hate mobs: the metaphorical blood is on your hands. Do better.

KiwiFuckers and collaborators get dumpstered

kiwifarms, short take 

when they drove someone to suicide, one of their admins made a thread which started with something like:
"we are here to have fun, don't let your guilt over someone's death ruin that, just leave your conscience at the door"

and that is all you need to know about kiwifarms

and can i just say.

you want a test of your community's resilience? this is it, right here, right now. you either actively support kiwi farms and their tactics, or you don't. there is very little room for a middle ground.

if you believe in us but pretend you don't, or if you don't believe in us but don't even bother to see what we have to say for ourselves, then you are ACTIVELY empowering this stalker mob. and once they know this works, they won't stop with us.

defederation PSA (no-reply) 

Hi, I've been investigating and blocking alt-right instances for more than a year:

- Defederation is not really malicious. If the instance's administration feels threatened by another instance (even if you may think it's invalid as to why), they have every right to defederate.

- If you want to go to another instance because you don't agree with the administration's actions, you can.

Everyone has options that suit them. Please don't make this situation snowball.

I'm safe for work Sasuke, the topical subject when your parent's hovering over your shoulder

harassment, politics 

Believe it or not, I actually do think that there's a certain beautiful quality to mob violence against fash, cops, state accessories to murder, you should know the deal by now.

That being said, I've watched woke mobs go after various queer people and I'm convinced its participants know those targets are available and hurt by your behavior in a way that others are not.

You don't want to hurt them because they deserve it, but because you can palpably enjoy their suffering.

Hey, remember that "first they came for" poem?

We are now battling a multidimensional version of that poem's reality, with multiple different attacks on multiple different fronts. It is absolutely criminal, should be unthinkable, for anyone who DARES calling themselves anything even remotely resembling socially left, to side with the explicit murderers on ANY of them.

Hopefully, this applies to none among you, for shame be upon those who join the cycle of hate before it is turned against them!
