Mesha“Blah blah people are still on Twitter for no good reason,” says the non-black person fitting into this white-ass space with the utmost of ease.
Dan Gero@devinprater @ThisPlaceAgain People keep pointing out that Mastodon isn't very inviting for black people and that there's a lot of racism here, but the only mentioning of black people I've ever seen here is people pointing out that Mastodon isn't very inviting for black people. I've never seen anyone even hint towards the idea that black people aren't welcome here. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but if you want people to see that it's an issue, you have to site your sources.
@dangero @devinprater This place will never change, because it’s ppl like you who can’t read deeper than the surface. Just because you don’t see ppl yelling “n*****” 24/7 doesn’t mean it’s inviting. Are you actually listening to what black ppl are saying? Because I’ve heard there’s been numerous convos on this long before I got here. There’s a reason black ppl aren’t here. It ain’t just a fluke.

Oh, and maybe you've already gotten there, but I block much more freely here.
I used to feel bad about it, like i was insulting the other person, but look at this person here: they're not taking your word for your experience! I've decided that if i wouldn't enjoy hanging with you in real life, why am I spending my on-line energy on you?
