LOL, ok so hold up. POC, LGBT, women, literally EVERY community EXCEPT white guys have been continual targets of dog-piling and harassment from since day one, but when a famous white guy gets a small taste of the abuse he and his ilk constantly dish out, the mother fucking creator of Mastodon is going to change it's Code of Conduct for him??

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Gargron ain't shit, yo. Like... for real..

@Are0h

i found the cognitive dissonance of how they handled the situation as well as the disconnect of choosing the person they chose to represent the moderation team to be quite amusing
@kaniini They've made a choice. That's all it really is. And it's the one we expected them to make, despite their proclamations about community and what not.
@Are0h exactly, and that's why a lot of people are doing their own things in this space now instead of just following Gargron. i think that's a good thing for the fediverse as a whole.
@kaniini Agreed. The shift is going to be a bit bumpy because it's a hub, but no instance should be that central to the overall experience anyway.
