jenbanim<p><a href="https://mastodo.neoliber.al/tags/Fediblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediblock</span></a>, I recommend suspending these servers for having unmoderated Nicole spam</p><p>mastodon.economiasocial.org<br>unipar.online<br>mstdn.ro<br>chinanews.social</p><p>I can provide links to the still-active accounts if anyone wants receipts</p><p>Please let me know if you're aware of any other servers that have failed to contain her</p>
:thufie: Goo Truther :contains_thc:<p>TL;DR: single user instance spread already rampant libel inadvertently, doubles down on the racist side and stands by said libel. Then engages in new, original libel, now including me! Yay!</p><p>The user @tastytea@very.tastytea.de responded very badly after I asked them to not spread libelous charges against <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.art/@welshpixie" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>welshpixie</span></a></span> (an actually anti-racist moderator of mastodon.art) in a post they boosted (about an emoji of all things!). Taking part in spreading libel does not make you a neutral party, which seems lost on this user, when they could have easily un-boosted libel from the racist harasment oriented queer self-styled progressive side of fedi.</p><p>The user "tastytea" is now responding to an attempt at feedback in the event of spreading libel, by broadcasting that I've attempted to communicate to them as a mutual? Well of course, the immediate insistence on receipts is not directed at me, but to the unspoken audience of racist queers who won't listen to accounts from black and brown people. I take this to be direct libel (now you're deciding to get dirty with it) and also a broadcast to attract other racists and antisemites who already pester me without this happening. Here is their post (again, directed at me rhetorically, but not mentioning me by @ or in a thread)<br><a href="https://very.tastytea.de/notes/a6ccskl46k" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">very.tastytea.de/notes/a6ccskl</span><span class="invisible">46k</span></a><br>Please note that I am Jewish and have studied antisemitism and holocaust studies, and although it has nothing (explicitly) to do with anything below tastytea feels it is fit to mention antisemitism.</p><p>Well guess what now YOU are part of the receipt pile! Not that you'd read it since it came from welshpixie arch-evil of fedi for not tolerating bigots.</p><p>Here is the thread I started, where I eventually reply to tastytea when I realize they were boosting the weird emoji post bundled with the anti-racist moderator DNI message inexplicably in the same post:<br><a href="https://social.pixie.town/@thufie/114303090507962687" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">social.pixie.town/@thufie/1143</span><span class="invisible">03090507962687</span></a></p><p>And here is the weird fox emoji post referencing the well-known anti-racist moderator of mastodon.art, pissing off bigots everywhere:<br><a href="https://pleroma.envs.net/objects/fcd961cc-8823-420b-a948-288f8c04d4d3" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">pleroma.envs.net/objects/fcd96</span><span class="invisible">1cc-8823-420b-a948-288f8c04d4d3</span></a></p><p>I'll put some of the usual hashtags here. I'd love to invite bigots and their sympathetic friends to block our instance pixie.town as I know you read these obsessively as you cyber-stalk me. To everyone else, suspend envs.net and tastytea.de if you want since those are definitely in the no good camp. To welshpixie: sorry to spam your notifs I know you already are a caught in their racist conspiracies constantly as if you are their queer George Soros.</p><p>Anyways, for me it is back to drinking christian blood and mingling the races! Have a good day everybody! Sorry I let you know this happened it is so fucking stupid, but this is just how whiteness goes.<br><a href="https://social.pixie.town/tags/Fediblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediblock</span></a></p><p>Sorry for typos, drafted on my new phone and the keyboard isn't right. I got a life and shit to do unlike these people.</p>
Neodog with Glasses Plushie :neodog_glasses: :waow: <p>I joined the Fediverse in 2018, but only became highly active in 2023.<br>The state of the transgender community was some terminally diseased bullshit: you could disrupt federation by throwing the name of any trans girl you dislike to <a class="hashtag" href="https://fedi.aria.dog/tag/fediblock" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fediblock</a> with nothing more than accusations of social adjacency to the wrong people. Destroy hundreds of connections over trumped-up charges. Many of my dear friends are no longer on the network because of this.</p><p>I found the network split into two hermetic clusters i like to call Tech Mastodon and Queer Fedi. The first is barely aware of the second, eager to gentrify it, and to speak over us.</p><p>I have written about these topics at length, and taken action about them. </p><p>I wrote an article that focuses on a nonprofit named <a class="hashtag" href="https://fedi.aria.dog/tag/iftas" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IFTAS</a>, due to their penchant for enabling abuse against us - this is a very long article, and the next links are more summarized:<br><a href="https://aria.dog/barks/ethics-in-transgenderism/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://aria.dog/barks/ethics-in-transgenderism/</a></p><p>Once I learned the <a class="hashtag" href="https://fedi.aria.dog/tag/fediforum" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FediForum</a> virtual conference was co-organized by a transphobe, me and friends dug up all the receipts in time, before they were concealed. I delivered an uninvited counter-talk, which is a good summary of our dysfunctional social dynamics: </p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy5O2LjeuDY" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fy5O2LjeuDY</a></p><p>You might prefer to read this transcript: <a href="https://aria.dog/barks/mastodon-trust-and-safety-at-the-terf-conference/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://aria.dog/barks/mastodon-trust-and-safety-at-the-terf-conference/</a></p><p>The transcript also contains a section about death threats I received about this video, which US nonprofit companies i criticized multiple times, <a class="hashtag" href="https://fedi.aria.dog/tag/nivenly" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nivenly</a> and <a class="hashtag" href="https://fedi.aria.dog/tag/iftas" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IFTAS</a>, decided not to take action about, despite platforming the person who made those threats. IFTAS, in particular, had a previous history of transphobic death threats from its staff, and tried to conceal the evidence. Meanwhile, Nivenly used the name of a dead trans woman to deflect accountability, then said the death threats didn’t happen.</p><p>So long as death threats are in play, i have no inclination to be civil: my community’s penchant for civility is the reason we are easy to speak over. </p><p>Do not follow me to keep up with those topics, try <span class="h-card"><a class="u-url mention" href="https://mastodon.social/@fedilore" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>fedilore</span></a></span> instead. Me, i just pop out of random wells to chastise you, without warning, and will try to keep my activity mostly away from this account.</p><p>BTW: Queers always keep receipts, and we’ll be gay much longer than gentrifiers will be solvent.</p>

Eve 😘📚<p>I'd heard that the Fedichick infrastructure was being used to send out scam material. There are significant overlaps between this account and similar spam accounts but I don't know if that's what happened here. However, please be aware.</p><p>This also had a video attached to it. I will be reporting it shortly.</p><p>I'm not aware of any technical risk involved in playing the video but I won't play the video and I recommend you don't either.</p><p><a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Fediblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fediblock</span></a></p>

The Fedilore Otter 🦦<p>For your safety, the current list of instances that Ro uses to attack queer people on fedi is:</p><p>- rage.love<br>- queer.group<br>- indiepocalypse.social<br>- blackqueer.life<br>- queer.garden<br>- mastodon.art<br>- solarpunk.moe<br>- colorid.es<br>- cathode.church</p><p>Blocking as many of these instances as you can will minimize the risk of your instance facing transphobic harassment from Ro.</p><p>It's best to block all of them - often harassment escalates when a new source is added to the list (not yet blocked). <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fediblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fediblock</span></a></p>
The Fedilore Otter 🦦<p>Ro is taking the stance that these screenshots I took of Kaliya's Twitter account are fake.</p><p>This sort of disgusting transphobia is why it's important for instances who care about queer safety to consider a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/fediblock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fediblock</span></a> for all <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/thebadspace" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thebadspace</span></a> contributor instances.</p>
