Update: the solution was to view the stream outside of my instance. The blocklist was working too well.

Single-purpose forum sites are a vestige of the sprawl of the early web.

This certificate is for one that I have been participating in lightly since 2016.

The Impact of Denying a Wanted Abortion on Women and Children

https://conference.nber.org/conf_papers/f206906.pdf

"...administrative data from Colombia and credibly exogenous variation in abortion access. Women facing barriers to abortion can file a tutela, which is randomly assigned to judges. We find that female judges are 20 p.p. (32%) less likely to deny abortion than male judges...Death records reveal that it more than doubles women’s risk of dying in the subsequent nine months"

@JoscelynTransient what led you to make such a minor correction in such harsh language?
@mynameistillian Why would you frame such a banal point in the form of a personal attack?

Strategies:

1. Rather than work on the protocolverse as a whole, work on an instance. An instance is the unit of community. It is what crystallizes learnings.

2. Invent a values-included version of the fediverse, so that the tech and community are united. Make an offshoot of Activity Pub that is useless to nazis.

3. Study happiness in the fediverse so we can do more of what's working.

Another of my grandfather's drawings...1940s? Kangaroo rat? (We had them in the tall grass outside Nairobi. Parents were right to say no to them as pets.)

After hunting for about 30 minutes I didn't find any plainly racist comments to learn from. What I did find was a lot of goopy white people who had covered the antiracist reading list and knew the right formulas.

You can help. Do you have a more effective way to find examples of what https://dair-community.social/@KimCrayton1/112858757929564642 is talking about?

Ok, what I'm NOT going to do is take on the responsibility, that Mastodon developers continue to fail at, of reading racist and violent comments to my posts just so that I can block them Moving forward, I will be muting my posts which means it's up to you "good white folx" to report this shit because I will NOT sacrifice my mental health and wellbeing in service to helping y'all understand white supremacy/anti-Blackness AND your role in maintaining it
