As promised, mastodon.social code of conduct has been updated to add "casteism and advocation of casteism" to the list of explicitly prohibited offenses
@Gargron this is amazing
Thank you!
@Gargron 10 points to ravenclaw!!! Good work, keep it going
@Gargron
What does this mean? :gargamel:

@oz @Gargron

When humans discriminate humans, under the false pretense of supremacy, its castiesm. It still exists in various forms and has resulted in social injustice or institutionalised discrimination.

Generations suffered because of this humiliation and were denied their basic human rights. It is a slap on the face of humanity.

Then, there are deniars and naysayers who say
“Caste discrimination doesn’t exist anymore.”

@BhavanaVarun @oz @Gargron I've seen many indians comment the last last in the tweets amd posts of foreigners.

@Kasheer @oz @Gargron

Just ask them why!
And then listen to their stories carefully. All have an 'imaginary' friends who might have confirmed their claims. Something like..
"I am not racist, I have many many many black friends."

We have enough of flat earthers & genocide deniars. Those claiming normalcy in Kashmir. Those who believe lynchings & rapes never happened. For them, Sab changa si (all is perfectly fine, there ain't no sufferings)

@Gargron Great job!! We needed it more than anything else
@Gargron Can you add discrimination against religious minorities or discrimination based on religion in general to the prohibited offenses list?
@Gargron great news.... much better than twitter which had become so partial.....
@Gargron Your empathy to geographic issues will make this platform an excellent place to be.
@Gargron YAY... Thank you for actually listening :)
@Gargron Thank You for making this a safe inclusive space! It is exemplary.
@Gargron So this is how it feels huh? To have a social platform actually listen to suggestions?
@pepsiwithastraw @Gargron its really not as hard as one would think!
@mcknze @pepsiwithastraw @Gargron
It's not as hard as FB and Twitter has led us to think.
@Gargron you guys are AWESOME!!!!
@Gargron Thank you for your concern..
Will @jack soon join mastodon 🙏💐
@Gargron reading the replies to this warms my heart 
@Gargron Thank you. While reporting a rogue account yesterday, I has entered the word #casteism in the free text field. #Mastodon must never have thought of this category to be part of moderation, until #India happened. That's just a sneak peek into how filthy the modern Indian SM space is.
@Gargron Thanks, i cant believe at year 2020 we still have to deal with this shit
@Gargron Brilliant!!! Thank you so much 😃👍🏼
@Gargron nice platform man.
I am really loving it
@Gargron Ur creating a new wave of change and advocating equalitarian values.Thankyou for providing respite for many .
@Gargron yay that trolls can be ejected but still sad they'd try to spread their poison here too.
@Gargron OK lets get to progress finally #india #mumbai #delhi
@Gargron Appreciated 🤗👌💜
@Gargron போடுறா வெடிய 🔥🔥🔥✨
@Gargron That's neat! Very important update.
@Gargron
That's really fantastic, caste is the most successful graded slavery system invented, still successful...
@Gargron is there a list of code of conduct one can see ?
@Gargron Thank you for doing that. It is refreshing to be on a platform that has a moral core.
@Gargron How to i see my followers nd following

@Gargron hope that
A. More instances with substantial user count from #India adopt this policy and extend to cover other discriminatory bases as well
B. You get users, who can understand and identify these differences and violations including preferably understanding the non English toots, to volunteer their time for moderating such content.

Thanks for taking the initiative and good luck

@dpreacher While the adoption has been quick and very visible, in absolute numbers, the percentage would be small when compared with "users of Twitter from India". It isn't like *everyone* has switched over.
@sankarshan so....? You're telling about point A?
