Since a lot of new people have come on I've noticed a rise in people trying to start arguments. It's as if they carried the toxicity from wherever they came from along with them.

So this is your reminder that you DO NOT HAVE TO ENGAGE with people who are here just to start fights.

Mute them. Block them. Do whatever you have to do to take care of your mental health.

They aren't worthy of your time.

Let's keep Mastodon and the rest of the Fedi a "social" network and not a "toxic" network.

I totally get this, but the fights I get in are largely around people saying antisemitic things, and I think that it's important to say something about it. That "something" doesn't have to be name calling or toxic, but if no one says anything, it can be seen as normalizing or approving hate speech.

We need people to call out bad behavior. Ideally it shouldn't have to be the victims who call it out, but *someone* should.
