I'm not boosting my old posts, I'm reissuing my back catalogue

If some rich dude can buy the public square, then it wasn't the public square.

As thousands leave corporate-owned socials for masto, we praise it for being different, which to a point it is. We believe that once users are out of the corporate controlled environment, everything will be fixed, happily ever after. Desiring fast, singular solutions to problems is a characteristic of white supremacist thought processes. Wherever you came from, you still have the unwritten rules of engagement ingrained into how you think about writing. Even if you have been on here awhile and you feel much more "untainted" than the new arrival, guess what, you still live in a society. And that society is capitalist, it's been all you've known since birth. You have cops of various strains in your head too. The voices from your past that aren't so kind still echo shame in your head and stifle your behavior. So proceed with empathy and know that there will be multiple solutions that spiral out over time as people reorient themselves, which happens with practice, not overnight. We have many neurons to rewire. Liberation moves like a murmuration of birds, not like a flat plane moving forwards uniformly and linearly.
