Also, just because ActivityPub and Mastodon are Not Birdsite doesn't mean it's impossible for fascists to invade the spaces. It just means we have more collective control over their reach.
You should still practice good online safety. Get to know your instance mods. Use the report function. Don't engage with fascists for dunking points. We possess the tools to isolate them, unlike on Birdsite.

@shaderphantom how do you get to know your instance mods? I know v little about how disputes are resolved here

@Elahrairah your instance's About page likely has a list of mods, rules, other instances that are blocked or silenced, that sort of thing, you should be able to see it from your "Getting Started" tab in the main web UI.
