I’m wondering if y’all can help me build a community of trans people of colour on the tag #TransPOC as i miss the wonderful people i knew on a different animal themed app.
After seeing reports of racism and bad moderation I guess i’m just trying to find my people. Boosts very welcome.

@intentionaut
I'm trans and kanaka maoli (indigenous Hawaiian) let's make it happen
@smileodon *stealth follows in #BIPOC sneakishness!*
@intentionaut #TransPOC here! *waves!*
(I'm following everyone who replies here) >_> *sneaky*
@intentionaut how to find each other in ways that doesn't help harassers find us
@imani @intentionaut It's likely that harassers will find you unfortunately. Hopefully they'll get squashed pretty quickly.
@intentionaut I am an old, married, straight white woman with a heart and soul, wishing you the best and boosting your toot. I hope we can be friends too.
@intentionaut Check out tabletop.social. We're ttrpg-themed but all subjects welcome. :)
@intentionaut Cishet mom here. My amazing kid is just starting their gender affirming journey. I would also love to connect with BIPOC 2SLGBTQIA folx. I want to be a good parent. ❤️❤️❤️ And I have plenty of mom hugs to share if anyone needs some.
@WrenegadeW we love a parent who knows how to show up. always here for you if you have questions!
@intentionaut This little note made me tear up. Thank you! My growing up years were in a very white conservative place and I'm doing my best to make sure my kids' experiences are different. Then I read the news and I'm terrified. I can only imagine what it feels like for my baby and other BIPOC 2SLGBTQIA kids, especially.
@intentionaut boosting & loving on this toot.
@intentionaut Getting used to this new role of hashtags takes a while. After a week I'm still tweaking the hashtags on my profile, remembering groups of people I knew on other social media who I haven't seen around here yet. You just reminded me to try reconnecting to one of them, completely unrelated to your post. Mastodon is a new neighborhood with all kinds of interests. Thank you for the reminder.

@intentionaut you can check if members from previously mentioned animal-themed community are here through this website: https://fedifinder.glitch.me/

It was really helpful for me, and I hope it can be helpful for you too.

If your account on that other site is still visible, make sure to add your Mastodon address to your bio or screen name so others can find it later.

I'm down! Latina trans woman here! ✊

@intentionaut I’m trying to be the best support I can be for my gay and transgender students. There are a surprising number of them this and last year, all sweet, smart young people who deserve all the good things Iife. Thst they know there is so much hate makes me heartsick. I hope you find your people. There are lots of allies here.

@intentionaut

Thank you for shaping our future with kindness and supporting who they really are. A lot of these kids can't find acceptance at home or just don't have the timing to do it now. You are a beacon in some lives.

@Vinny787 @intentionaut I wish everyone could meet these kids with an open mind and open heart. They are lovable people with beautiful hearts. They have sharp intelligence that comes from being a minority facing discrimination and they are also very innocent and idealistic. They are not the angry social justice warriors the right portrays in their media but just regular teens who need and want friendship and acceptance. I’m humbled by their bravery and good heartedness.
@Vinny787 if people could meet these kids most would love them and would see how cruel it is to target people like them with bigoted laws and with ridicule and violence. It’s chicken sh it bullying as these kids usually have the least power in school and the larger society.
@intentionaut best of luck. Tough starting from scratch.
@intentionaut I’ll help but NGL, I don’t know any Trans POC personally. I can holla at them to link with you on here if you’d like if I come across any.

@intentionaut

I'm a straight ally and am happy to follow. I hope your posse bugs out of the bird shit-show.

We need good people to build this social media site as the community we want it to be as a reflection of the world we want to live in.

Maybe this will help you create a group and promote it.

For people looking for #community on #Mastodon, one option is the page https://a.gup.pe. The attached image is the crux of how it works. Essentially tag or follow @ Whateveryouwanthere @ a.gup.pe (without the spaces, of course), it will create the group and boost anything it receives, so you get the activity of the community.

@intentionaut — mother of a #transpoc — anything I can do to grow the community, will be done with enthusiasm and love.
@intentionaut If you build it they will come. Wish you well with building a community.
@intentionaut why not make a new server for such things?

@intentionaut

As someone who has posted over 150 posts (albeit mostly on a previous account) hashtagged
#SeizeTheMeansOfCommunity
I am heartened by your approach.

@intentionaut I hope you find what you’re looking for. Welcome to the platform! I’m new as well. I came here to escape the toxicity of twitter

@intentionaut this is a good tool to find all your Twitter community on mastodon and add them with a click:

@intentionaut Hi Saielle, I hope that you quickly connect into or build a community where you feel fabulous. May it be just a beautiful as the one you are missing.
@intentionaut I will add #TransPOC to my list of welcome tips, it's been getting a lot of boosts, that should help.

@intentionaut blessings to you! I am hoping trolls can be yeeted from here
@intentionaut I'm neither trans nor a person of color but I have many friends who are and I am thrilled to point them in your direction #TransPOC
@intentionaut
You seem interesting...I don't mind giving y'all a boost.
@intentionaut I shared your post and folllowed, wishing you success.
@intentionaut Have you thought about setting up your own instance (server) for Mastodon? Then you can implement your own guidelines within your own server and moderate accordingly. I have run mine for the last 4,5 years at masto.host for as little as 5 euros per month. Almost never a need to moderate though, in spite of attracting a fair amount of people.
