Here's my ranty blog post.
"I'm bitter about the whole Hachyderm thing and I've been sitting on it letting my brain figure out why, so here are some words."
@welshpixie thank you greatly for the write-up. I’ve been trying to watch from the outside and grok what all was happening and being a little lost.
But thank you even *more* for linking the receipts. This is what goes missing all too easily and quickly.
@raineer Aye - I didn't have any links in that post initially because it's been stuff that's been going on for a while, and admins were kinda already aware of things that had happened, and lots of instances had already silenced or defederated, and it had come up multiple times in the fediblock hashtag so I was like 'everyone knows what this is about'
But then Kris was like 'people are calling me these things and I don't know why'
Uhhh
@welshpixie thanks for the writeup, I agree. And the "just walking away" reminds me a lot of this tweet from Leslie Miley a couple of days ago ...
I don't think you're tagging in the correct "Nova."
If you scroll to the bottom of @welshpixie 's article, there is an earlier article with receipts linked to at the top.
Though honestly I think the fact that she's ready to give Dorsey a public foot massage displays plenty of bad judgment all by itself.
@welshpixie What 'bad things' did Nova say?
There's something I find very unsettling about the language used here too and the way Kris is talking to Esther. It's the kind of thing I'd expect to see in some kind of workplace training seminar about 'how to handle confrontation'; all the 'Great point!' and the stuff about 'going to bed with smiles on our faces'. Like if you had told me ChatGPT had written that I would not be surprised. It's weird and icky.
Also, entirely disingenuous.
Things to know: when Kris said things that were racist/classist on her Masto account, she was called on them. Conversations were had in the comments to these posts and she participated in them. She had a conversation with @maloki , and then mentioned Maloki in her apology post thanking her for helping her understand how what she said was wrong. As she participated in these convos and even made apology posts she was obviously aware that she had been called these things.
Here's the 'one last thing' I wanted to share, I've been holding on to them waiting for the OK from Esther as she's mentioned in the conversation. These are from the hachyderm channel in the Nivenly Discord, which is public. Kris asks in one of them that if they're shared, they're shared in full over the next two toots, and should be in order.
This was Esther going into the Discord to talk after StrangeObject.space had silenced Hachyderm and linked to .art's blog post about silencing.

@daria @welshpixie Lots of us are autistic. Very few autistic people I've ever known speak like that.
@welshpixie well she's on the autism spectrum afaik (might delete that later :P)
Like, please, can an -ologist of some kind look at the way she's talking here and tell me why I find it so unsettling. :p
