@hipsterelectron @vantiss @Gina to be clear, I meant I was in no mood for the writing at the other end of that link, but not as a message to vantiss. I only used that phrase because I'm just sick of low-effort "why can't we just go back to how things were before I had to hear anything about marginalized communities" screeds. This person just has no business being a mod in a space like this (or really any other space imo), especially in the wake of this.
I had a really good idea of how this fosstodon thing would go as soon as it happened, because I've seen this from the vantage point of having been on here for a few years now. I definitely support deeply vetting the people they're replacing the old team with, and I support open analysis and criticism of the decisions that have been made thus far.
I was trying to say that the writing suggested this mod would end up being as problematic as the ones they were replacing. I really hope I didn't come across as "why are you still talking about this" or anything. I am happy to edit or remove my posts if I've brought the conversation down rather than contributed anything.
