Dear @Gargron,

A fediverse server called Threads is violating mastodon.social’s second server rule:

“2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia…
Transphobic behavior such as intentional misgendering and deadnaming is strictly prohibited.”

https://glaad.org/smsi/report-meta-fails-to-moderate-extreme-anti-trans-hate-across-facebook-instagram-and-threads/

Can you please defederate from this server to protect the trans people on mastodon.social?

Thank you.

PS. It’s run by these guys: https://techcrunch.com/2024/03/26/facebook-secret-project-snooped-snapchat-user-traffic/

@monorailtimes Blocking Thread user is like playing Wack-a-mole and giving Facebook does nothing to stop it, it won't do as much effect unlike blocking the instance.

@matty @aral @Gargron yeah just block the domain, that's totally possible or join a mastodon instance that respects that, but forcing everyone to adhere to your specific moderation isn't what the fediverse was founded on

@monorailtimes If this wasn't Facebook and instance doesn't do anything about the bigotry, they would be on FediBlock. For god sake, Mastodon.social rule is no transphobia so damn right we're allow to be annoyed. Acting like it isn't a major deal and we're "forcing" it is not only telling little you care about trans and how damn condensing you are

@matty @aral @Gargron you have options to moderate your own content, not everyone else’s, I haven't said anything offensive to you at all but you're attacking me for providing another perspective and you know nothing about me
