@kitsuneofinari@Natanox@silvereagle I don't know why you are so incredibly concerned about it being blocked by people you don't even care about in the first place. The only thing your words tell me is that blocklists ruin the fun you have from harming others.
I'm so very happy that none of you understand what this feels like and that you don't need to hesitate every time you want to talk about your culture and experiences. Are you so desperate for attention that you need us to see the discriminatory trash people in your circles love to share?
I understand that none of you white/whitewashed individuals give a single shit about us because you don't interact with us; and instead spew this verbal diarrhea about how Fedi is being ruined because we don't want people in our mentions defending Nazis, or calling our food gross, or saying that racism doesn't exist here (all of which I've seen this month alone).
@kitsuneofinari@Natanox@silvereagle Numerous white people who follow me see this happening on a regular basis. They don't experience this and they have told me this. They are aware that their time on Mastodon is vastly different from mine and other BIPOC folks. BIPOC I'm mutuals with get trolls on their content ALL. THE. TIME.
@kitsuneofinari@Natanox@silvereagle I find it sad that people who don't have the courage to show any personal information about themselves post the most unhinged garbage on Mastodon. Step back and think about what you're writing. You're equating a blocklist to...war? This isn't a video game.
Are you a white person? Despite the fact that I'm light-skinned mixed, I'm targeted by trolls almost every time I'm on this stupid app.
You mentioned you are concerned about the divide. Do you think the divide is because of TheBadSpace? Do you think the LGBT community is divided because of Ro? Do you think TheBadSpace created the TERF movement? Gays Against Groomers? Do you believe racism towards queer BIPOC is a retaliation of online "divide and conquer" on Mastodon? I'm begging people to go outside and interact with the world.
