   Recap of yesterday:
   -The mastodon.art admin starts throwing a temper tantrum about firefish.social because Calc boosted an article from me, the admin saying I'm racist with no receipts and a "just trust me" attitude
   https://mastodon.art/@welshpixie/110787396575784398
   
   -i defend firefish.social and Calc and myself because this has been a tactic by that art admin, vague claims and mass blocks of trans run instances where asking for receipts or elaboration gets you labeled as "sealioning" which in the context of moderation is a misuse of the term. I also mention WelshPixie failing to address that she is a Welsh white woman who moved to South Africa and contributes to systemic apartheid, something she has never actually addressed
   https://akko.disqordia.space/notice/AY82ywCmtlSmNk9Jrc
   
   -I address the "racism" accusation which was just me criticizing one person for transmisogny with no mention of race
   https://akko.disqordia.space/notice/AY8Dow3pgCJsXAOTJo
   https://akko.disqordia.space/notice/AY8EGB3u0uwwsUPsQ4
   
   
   -The art admin then messages Calc on Discord calling them an "eris cocksucker"
   
   -Calc posts screenshots of this from multiple platforms
   https://archive.ph/h3ati
   
   -The art admin calls the screenshots doctored, deletes the message to Calc and then posts a screenshot of the chat without the deleted message
   https://mastodon.art/@welshpixie/110788232121017336
   
   -Firefish.social does not call this out but instead puts up an announcement that they are suspending Disqordia to "investigate" us being racist
   https://firefish.social/notes/9hpa84jcdzyxyr1u
   
   -Chris / Atomicpoet messages me demanding j answer for the accusations based on zero receipts for me to address. I point out that boosting the accusation from someone lying about Calc and harassing Calc is harmful to me and does damage by adding weight to and spreading those accusations
   
   -Calc puts out a vague "We're so inclusive" corporate speak post instead of addressing this
   https://firefish.social/notes/9hpeipuuroxooqs5
   
   -I suspend firefish.social and atomicpoet.org and let Calc and Chris know that this is the case until they issue a public apology, especially after I've extensively defended them from lies when they can't do the same for me
   
   And that's where we're at.
   
   From what I can tell, the Firefish admins are putting their corporate speak and stance as some public brand over actually treating their friends well and gave into harmful accusations from someone harassing and spreading lies about them in the first place. I am the first to defend my friends and yet they can't defend me once? It was extremely hurtful
   
   Even if their only intention was to investigate, this does harm and has a real impact on me and my instance and users. Calc/Kainoa and Chris do owe a public apology in my opinion, but also the mastodon.art admin needs to just get fucked because half of fedi now knows you're a liar
   
   Fedi really disappointed me yesterday

     @eris@akko.disqordia.space first mistake was caring about mastodon.art moderation policies. Second mistake was bothering about calckey at all, yes they do seem very corporate and are on the same moderation discourse that mastodon.art is, and generally mastodon, they want to break fedi with the whole strength of simply being more people and forcing people to comply.
     
     Funnily enough when they fall they shadowban your instance because they want to be seen as neutral and inclusive (they aren't) and as most people most of the time they are completely full of shit.

     If I was calc I would've told WelshPixie to gargle some fat balls as soon as she said anything at all

     @eris@akko.disqordia.space so after reading this (and since following you and never seeing a racist post), I'm sure you're not racist and for me it sounds like the mastodon.art admin is just one of those people who block all pleroma(-fork) instances and call them racist, "alt fedi" etc.
     I also don't understand why your instance got suspended for literally no reason other than "trust me guys".

     @eris this is extremely unfortunate. Kainoa doesn't deserve the two PR disasters that were the Firefish rebrand and now Chris's sub-par performance here.

     Dotart is a joke, the only way it can be useful is ban speedruns.
