Appreciate I’m posting a lot about the latest drama, and the unexamined transmisogyny at the root of it, but I think we are at a bit of an inflection point now.
It appears that a lot of this singling out of trans women heavy instances has come from a few small servers that were heavily involved in the block list project, and mastodon.art, a large server that were it smaller, I suspect would be widely defederated.
As far as I can tell, most of the smaller servers are offline at this point, including Frontman-Mc-TechbRo’s own single user server.
No idea if this is temporary, or whether the tide has turned and enough people are now providing pushback to the “trans women are basically inclined towards naziism and that’s just how it is” bullshit they were spreading a few days ago.
I am hoping that we have turned a corner. Let’s see.
