   Mastodon is wild, y'all really got white folks on this site calling Black and Indigenous people colonizers, yet wonder why this place can't keep Black folks.

     @seachanger @Dangerous_beans @BlackAzizAnansi

     Both accounts (first and second) have been suspended now. So moderation seems to have done its job.

     EDIT: WRONG ... they're STILL there, just not my instance

     From a platform-wide perspective, it'd be interesting to know if these were explosive outbursts from them or if they'd gone under the radar for a while until @BlackAzizAnansi had to do the work themselves using, let's be frank, the old-school QTs that may still be controversial around here.

     @BlackAzizAnansi reported. That account would get suspended on my server, mastodon.world needs to act quickly. he doesn’t speak for anyone but his own racist fucking ass and that shit is not acceptable here or anywhere. I encourage readers to block and report so his admins get a barrage of notifications (update, guy is now suspended by @mwadmin)

     Oh, joy....a MAGAt got through the Matrix.

     At least this sucka still has the shrapnel wounds showing from when he got his ass run from another instance when attempting to toot his nonsense.

     Props to the admins there for quick action.

     turns out they had a track record of abuse and either it wasn’t reported or it wasn’t dealt with, from @deilann

     @maegul @seachanger @Dangerous_beans

     We need to have norms of solidarity and humanity that reduce cruel dogpiling. There's no technical work around to avoid just doing that hard work.

     We need to dogpile racists, let's go.

     For sure.

     But as for preventing dogpiling, how many are going to do that?

     >Though each time I've followed up a QT I've found excluded context that wasn't meaningless

     Actually a good argument for QT as it’s easier to get context from a visible link than a screenshot

     @Loukas @seachanger @Dangerous_beans

     I saw someone explain how they used to be against editing posts because they thought it'd be used to mask abuse (or something, I don't actually recall), but now seeing it be fine and good on here realise that it isn't the tech, it's the people and the culture.
     
     (if you follow me and I've misquoted pls feel free to correct)

     It'll probably be the same with QTs.

     Though each time I've followed up a QT I've found excluded context that wasn't meaningless.

     @maegul @seachanger @Dangerous_beans yes I think it's been very interesting seeing how laboriously manual quote-tweets have been necessary over the past few days to do a good job of exposing racism.
