so I was reading through a long thread just now re: mstdn.ca. realized there were a ton of responses missing.

opened it in my browser to get the context, and OH LOOK! a boatload of accounts I had muted a loooooong time ago absolutely treating Chad like a convicted criminal, advising everybody to jump ship IMMEDIATELY, calling him ugly names.

"innocent until proven guilty" apparently stops being a thing when you've got your conclusion already formed. wow.

everybody is free to come and go on the fediverse as they please, which is part of the beauty of it.

but to treat allegations as fact and also as a criminal conviction, AND using your "fedi clout" to rile people up against the admin is..... I don't know. ugly.

@robyn thats so unnecessary and downright stupid. you can jump ship at allegations and still call them allegations.
