The internet can be homophobic.

The internet can be racist.

Most fediverse developers have privilege.

We have a responsibility to use that privilege to build a better, more inclusive online space.

Let's start listening to marginalized voices, amplify their experiences, and work together to create a Fediverse where everyone feels safe and welcome.

@dansup People using the internet via the fediverse are also very anti-women and girls...half the population.

A)Bigotry isn't more or less acceptable depending on the size of the target population. Misogyny would be wrong even if we were only .01% of the population.

B)Women and girls are not actually half the population.

@dansup Great article about the incoming wave of misogyny the right wing, their Chinese and Russian cheerleaders are about to unleash… theguardian.com/commentisfree/?

@dansup Not sure what this was about? Maybe the larger influx of trolls?

@dansup sadly, that's not what the devs intent to do - espechally not @Gargron et. al.

@kkarhan @dansup @Gargron I absolutely do not trust the broader fediverse crowd with that kind of power.

@spaxuf @dansup me neither, but that's the advantage of a fully decentralized network.

Don't like mastodon.social ? You can:

- Self-host,
- Pay someone to host it for you,
- Move to an instance that does align with you more.

There are options.
It's your choice to take them...

@eibriel @dansup

i checked the account alongside others mentioned here, didnt read all but the few i read sounds like an intelligent person.
(funny thing is i almost closed the page because of the name i saw including 'cult' etc never judge a book by its cover)

i noticed some accounts that have great ideas for how to make this place a safe place are either muted or posts hidden, or is it the servers that are defederated?

this post by this thougtful & kind user- dansup is also #tootoftheday👏

@dansup that's why is needed to keep corporate interests out of federated spaces

John Mastodone indeed!

@dansup Sounds about right. Those from the USA need to stop using America as the name of the country. It's quite annoying and racist. It has about the same glow as using the N-word, it is that bad!. Because America has around 50 sovereign countries, not just one

@johnmastodone @dansup I was mocked lots of times for saying that America is a continent, or for asking what country of America they talk about, or for using Usonian as a demonym. So I 100% agree with you.

@dansup LGBT friendly cities can be transphobic.

Safe spaces can be gatekeepy.

Safe spaces can be judgemental against wearing masks indoors.

Protect the vunerables in our society.

@dansup The internet can be anything like people can… everything starts with education, knowledge and an ethical framework…

@dansup The only phobia I have is covid phobia. Gender preferences shouldn't scare anyone. On the pickleball court yesterday a man asked if another gentleman could join the gay trio and people got all pissy about it. People are evil. It's childish.
