After one solid day, the Help Ro Replace His Old Ass Electronics Fund is at $1005.78/$3000, which is a fantastic start.

A big shout out to everyone that has not only given, but also left some very kind words of encouragement and affirmation. Those small acts of kindness mean a lot to me.

Let’s keep it going. There’s a good chance we can knock this out this week, so I can get some new stuff and keep pushing #fipamo and #thebadspace forward, as well as some other tidbits I can't talk about publicly just yet.

LET'S GET THIS DONE!

Local blocklist owner does not "tell anyone who and who not to block."

#TheBadSpace

Harassing and demonizing me about #thebadspace is not going to get an instance removed. That’s not how the system works. Ha, I’m not interested in being benevolent dictator and the projects I build follow that thought.

I don’t tell anyone who and who not to block. I make suggestions with the fediblock tag just like everyone else. I don’t hold secret meetings in Discord chat rooms trying to slander people. If I have a problem, I talk about it publicly.

An appeal can be filed if an instance thinks they are being treated unfairly.

If one doesn’t like the sources of tbs, it can be self-hosted to have whatever sources one chooses.

Targeting me with bullshit is, more often than not, just going to result in your instance getting mass blocked and isolated.
And here is another example of fedilore straight up ignoring their role in harassment.

They are the vector for harassment of #thebadspace and fedilblock. That's just a fact.

Instead, they try to equate tbs to the US GOVERNMENT to dramatically shift away the reality of their complicity with harassment, which a particularly sinister thing to do because 1. they are not from the US and 2. tbs does not focus on trans communties.

So fedilore is showing they are incapable of having a good faith exchange because they prefer to make completely unfounded and quite salacious accusations to avoid talking about how the are central hub of harassment on the fedi.

We see conservative news outlets do this all time to avoid certain topics.

It seems fedilore is incredibly well versed in how bigot use media. Execution is a bit wobbly, but they are aware of what tactics they are using.
The funny part about this comment is that I actually don’t make this differentiation between risk between Black folks and trans folks. That’s something fedilore added because they have a binary way of thinking about culture.

My thinking is informed by both identities because that’s who I work with, but the about section of #thebadspace literally says “marginalized communities.” Ha, it's, in the most literal sense, not 'my' blocklist. It's a community blocklist. But they are showing, again, they don't give fuck about facts.

So I know what the risks are.

The part fediore always leaves out is that they are the vector that attacks marginalized communities!

The specific reason fedilore is on .social is because they know most people don't block that instance and they won't remove them for their behavior.

They are talking like harasssment randonmly happens while they literally multiple screen shots of me pinned to their profile

LOL, fedilore is one of the primary reasons #thebadspace is still up!

Their account is, quite literally, increasing that attack surface for marginilzed commuties because it's a hub for bigots.

If they actually gave fuck about safety, they would, I don't know STOP HARASSING PEOPLE lol!

But fedilore is showing in realtime self-reflection does not exist to bigots.
Fedilore is just in full delusion mode now.

As white people do, they try to ascribe what they believe by projecting what *they* feel onto people they don’t like.

I actually have a body of work that shows that I work with Black folks, trans folks and all the intersections in between. #thebadspace is a literal testament to that collaboration.

fedilore doesn't want to believe I am like this because, well, they dont' like Black folks and two I don't perform in the limited way they want to acknowledge.

And again, I did answer that question. I just don't *perform* for bigots, so that made them upset, so they do what bigots do.

Ha, they just lie.

fedilore's issue with me is that I'm Black, smarter than them and have the resume to prove it, while the sit behind a computer and talk shit with other bigots.
And again, it’s THEY. fedilore is just deliberately being hateful at this point, especially after their tirade about my pronouns.

And this is a bald faced lie, because they immediately blocked me after they bitched out of the convo from last night. If I am unblocked they just did it today.

And I didn't say I didn't want to talk. fedilore *ran* because he was getting embarrassed, and they started pleading with me today to engage them again, but there is no incentive for me to do so after exposing them last night. Ha, they're literally trying to re-write what happened so they don't look so pathetic.

In the context of getting the facts right, LOL, they don’t give a flying fuck about facts. This is just some liberal performance shit to appear reasonable.

But plenty of people have told fedilore directly they are wrong about #thebadspace and and their hateful rants about my alleged queerphobia and they still have their bullshit pinned to their profile about me and Welsh.

Everything slim does is just lie after lie after lie.
To finish this out, let’s be clear about who fedilore has always been: a racist that has been one of the primary vectors of Black and trans folks harassment on the fedi since the account was created.

They literally admit they created the account to stalk me.

In addition to that, they’ve gone out of their way to insult me, my age (which is a really weird fixation )deny my experiences, and actually admit they’d be fine with #thebadspace if it were for just for Black folks and not visible. LOL, yeah, they actually said that out loud.

Did they apologize for any of it? Did they express any remorse about the people they've harmed?

No, because the next day they went right back to lying about how they don't know harassment happens, while screens of my old notes are still pinned to their profile, LOL, and a very shallow song and dance about the intersectional relationship between transphobia and anti-Blackness, which they never talked about before, while still accusing of me transphobia with no evidence of other than their nonsensical ramblings about unrelated posts.

fedilore has shown repeatedly they are a hateful person that enjoys causing harassment and harm
And based on this lie about what I said, look at the leap of logic they make based on that.

There is no acknowledgement of their role in harassment, which they admitted to in our convo. I literally have the receipts of them saying it.

This is straight up abuser logic. The person that is the instigator of harm says they don’t know how it happens, so it must be the *targets* fault.

That’s the same shit Tech LGBT’s mod said when they started the demonizing campaign of #thebadspace

This more evidence that fedilore will just say anything to justify their role in the targeting of Black folks and the communities that support us.
@fedilore Like I said, I’m not on your schedule. If you want to run because you don’t want to answer my questions to expose yourself cool.

You’ve had all this energy for years to talk shit and now you’re “tired”.

Ha, I want you to remember how I gave you a shot to justify your actions and did noting but lie equivocate, try to tell me, the creator of #thebadspace how it works with no credible examples other than whatever you make up, trying to lecture some Black on how racism works and saying I"m not really queer because my pronouns are not in an order you like I don't say they enough lol!

Thanks for confirming you're not about shit.

I appreciate volunteering to show all of your frothy mouth rants, tirades and endless streams of harassment are just about you obvious hatred of Black folks and have nothing to do with advocating for queer people.

Beautiful work.
