Mark Wyner Won’t Comply 
#Mastodon has a LONG way to go to on Black #inclusivity. This is surprising because it’s appropriately focused on #accessibility and #LGBTQ+ inclusivity. We all need to uplift #BlackMastodon in every way we can. This will make Mastodon better and create a sanctuary for the Black community. Call out, fight, and report all micro-aggressions/racism witnessed here. Boost posts/accounts of Black Mastodonians. Use your #privilege to be a voice. This is our #responsibility. We’re #StrongerTogether.
Case in point. Since I posted this ~3 hr ago I’ve had to block 13 people. I’ve been called multiple homophonic and racial slurs. And I’m white. Imagine what these folks say to people who aren’t white, cis, straight males. People who are marginalized don’t have to imagine. They live through this repugnant hatred. Which is precisely why we need to focus on curating a safe and inclusive space. We can’t pretend it isn’t happening or this will never be as inclusive or welcoming as it could be.
LeaBug@markwyner I haven't seen any of these issues on my server. We have a lot of trans and POC.
the drymifolia collective@LeaBug I don't it's server specific, I assume the people doing the trolling of those hashtags aren't on the OP's server. Though some instances might have more robust block lists to avoid that kind of trolling, I guess, but even then it's hard to stop trolls from using burner accounts on open instances
@drymifolia I see. I wish I could help you with that. Sorry my friend
