I don't regret any of the last 3 years as a Masto admin because I learned a ton of shit and met a lot of really cool people I wouldn't have otherwise.

Running Social has also given me much confidence in my ability to build and manage my own community, which I will always be grateful for.

But I can no longer use a platform in good conscience that has proven to have no interest in the safety or concerns of marginalized and targeted communities.

So it's just time to move on.

We should be celebrating the achievements of all of these folks because what they've accomplished has never been done before, Black or white. We are living in a privileged time to be in an era where we are witness to this kind of talent, drive, intelligence and success against overwhelming odds.

Instead we get salty white men calling LeBron 'disrespectful' for doing something very nice for a fan.

Even when we excel, white people still hate us. That's how racist the US is and always has been.
