What for instance, in your opinion, should happen if someone from your instance now does a regular form of harassment on social media, that is quote tooting a disabled person to dehumanise, belittle, harass, etc?

That should be a breach of server rules and the mod team can do what they promise to do and restrict the offender.

Mastodon is not short of options for dealing with bad behaviour.

@mackaj @LutherBlissett13 @ben_zen @SigmaOne @mdstevens0612 @solarbear this is a bit disingenuous. A staple of comms courses is that innocent posts turn malicious as the hours pass. #MilkShakeDuck

@rood @mackaj @LutherBlissett13 @SigmaOne @mdstevens0612 @solarbear I'm not sure I follow on your hashtag usage there—or how what you're saying applies. (also, if anyone wants off the thread, definitely do say so.)

Disingenuous?

The point I'm making is that quoting won't take away any of the existing tools and processes we have today to protect ourselves.

@mackaj it's obvious that's the point you were making.

I would think that should result in a report to the remote server admins that this user is engaging in harassing behavior. If they prove to be not amenable to that, then the next step is to ask your local admins to drop that instance as they're not operating in good faith.

This is the approach taken by several instances I'm aware of, including furry.engineer—because this is already extant behavior. People are just using links and screenshots instead of quotes.
