Poster calls out systemic transmisandry on the Fediverse:

"when i called out fedi on transmisandry i was accused of transmisogyny and was told to kill myself SEVERAL times"

honestly why am i so surprised that fedi hates trans men, it's infested with transmisandrists, both on the cis and trans sides of matter when transmascyou was a thing the owners got FALSELY accuse...

I would post more but honestly @fedilore is covering pretty much everything I would post, and it feels like cheating to launder the information from there to here.

This post from Fedilore directly links to the back-and-forth between VantaBlack and Are0h (or Ro), and their statements are all still visible and only a couple clicks away.

There is no evidence of David harassing anybody.

Ro's been harassing David for about a year now, at least one threat of violence.

Vanta (who has been a long-time supporter of Ro's blocklist), called Ro out on this abuse and he's been lying about her now for the last several days.

Attached: 4 images #fediblock for Are0h at h-i.social for unrepentant misgendering, aka transphobia and enbyphobia it pains me to do this but i can't just sit idly by while my fellow queers are dehumanized. i know a lot of people like this guy and the stuff he does. but we wouldn't allow anyone else to misgender people on fedi and just get away with it, so why should this be any different? and it's not like it was just a one-time accident. he's doing it repeatedly knowing full-well the implications and continually trying to justify it misgendering is NEVER okay. even if you dislike somebody. anything less than unquestioning respect for whatever pronouns somebody might have shows a severe lack of care for the trans and nonbinary community as a whole. an injury to one is an injury to all. i don't care if somebody literally murdered your dog or something you can't fucking misgender them. there's a baseline of human decency here normally on cyberpunk.lol we try our hardest to stay out of fedi meta. but it hurts so bad to see people largely rally behind a person who dehumanizes queer identities on purpose. i have to take a stand and stick to my principles. i know it'll hurt. but i have to. i know there'll be backlash but it's worth it to be true to my values btw i'm definitely not saying you should harass him. just block and move on https://h-i.social/@are0h/112957244630941245 https://h-i.social/@are0h/112957712281689753 https://h-i.social/@are0h/112957745584762628 https://h-i.social/@are0h/112957776583901256 https://h-i.social/@are0h/112956910339862571

Ro has all these neat tricks!

1) Writes an abusive thread about Vanta.

2) Gets entirely ignored by Vanta.

3) Writes a fediblock post about how he was "harassed by" Vanta for the last 24 hrs.

I've been keeping this to #fediblockmeta until now, but the admin of blackqueer.life has been spreading lies about me for the last three days.

I called out one of their users' accounts on another instance for a weeks-long campaign of deadnamimg and for death threats last year.

If you do not want your users to be deadnamed or threatened, you might want to consider defederation.

Tenforward.social has blocked kitty.social. Source: https://tenforward.social/@guinan/113101811954202960

And good riddance, I say to that. A mutual block of their domain has been instated: if we cannot trust the administrators of a site to be civil and uphold the peace, we have no business federating with them.

Kitty.social received two reports from tenforward.social yesterday, I would assume from packetcat, one of them for a now-removed post, and the other one for
@Linux stating I would not "respond well to threats", in the context of packetcat's publication of the first report. I haven't seen the content of the first reported post due to the fact that it is now gone, but the user who made the post is a regular around here and I have absolutely no reason whatsoever to believe that their post was made with racist, harmful, or harassing intentions.

Apparently both
guinan and packetcat (at) tenforward.social are the same person, so claimed by packetcat, and they are the admin of the same. While I was not able to see one of the reported posts, what I can see is the overwhelming amount of "receipts" which packetcat has provided, in which a majority of them are simply asking for them to stop making so much noise on #fediblock. Packetcat seems to be responding by claiming that the entirety of this situation is targeted racism, and verbally lashing out in a rude, harassing manner towards those who seem to simply be trying to keep the peace.

I personally don't subscribe to the ideology of
#fediblock, but I can understand its' merits, and it is my opinion that both Packetcat's conduct, and their abuse of the hashtag calling on the blocking of innocent instances, is detrimental to the fediverse community as a whole. I would ask anybody who is seeing these posts to please do your research into the matter and use your best judgement when making the decision to act.

Trying to stay away from opinion,
packetcat's YouTube video on the matter seems ironically hypocritical. I would like to say that I cannot confirm or deny that they are being targeted, that may very well be true, but I have no knowledge of the claimed situation, and I would like to emphasize that I am not calling packetcat a liar on that matter. However, their claims that virtually everyone against them are racist are hypocritical to their own statements that you can't just use a factor of yourself to justify being targeted, especially when there are no grounds to believe the majority of it was racially motivated. Additionally, packetcat calls out two other races for being problematic, which equally sounds to me like he has problematic views of his own towards other peoples in society.

In summary, we will no longer be federating with this site as the drama their admin has brought has no place here.

Has a prominent Fedi user identified another prominent user as a terrorist? Crossfire ensues.
