Transgender candidate Joanna Whaley victorious in Michigan Democratic primary

You've given no reasonable arguments in defense of the charge you are being transphobic here. I'll give you one more chance to explain where you are coming from and to disambiguate your comments.

Being a gender abolitionist is fine (if that's what you're trying to express here) but not at the expense of celebrating trans pride. As it stands, your comments look like transphobia to me. If not transphobia then why transphobia shaped?

AOC Must Run For President

Just keep pandering to racist misogynists instead. Great advice, standing for nothing except the status quo has done so well for your candidates previously.

We’re included in what the lead developer describes as “bottom of the barrel” “people rejected by civil society.”

That's fucked up. And he's the self-appointed "nice" [secret]police? Yikes.

Be wary of spammy reposting bots

Unruffled [they/them] @lemmy.dbzer0.com 2mo ago

Yeah, I think repost bots are fine for certain use cases, but they should 100% be identified as bots, and not pretend to be a human account.

What online sites allow free speech?

Unruffled [they/them] @lemmy.dbzer0.com 2mo ago

Most probably x.com is the closest fit, though why anyone would choose that platform is beyond me. For clarity, are you a free speech libertarian or an anarchist?

PieFed Flagship Instance Shadowbanning Instances from Discoverability & Other Questionable Updates

But "some control over modlog visibility" is inevitably going to be abused to protect problematic mods and admins. A right of reply, or a context field added to the modlog record would be a better approach, where subsequent actions can be listed and clarified. It's also kind of amazing he just went ahead with these changes without broad consultation with piefed users or admins, or with the wider fediverse, since it effectively break normal federation.

PieFed Flagship Instance Shadowbanning Instances from Discoverability & Other Questionable Updates

If we go down to the core of the issue, there’s a fundamental disagreement between some instances on a niche use case: can the modlog be used for permanent slander, without giving people the option to reply?

To be fair, that is more a function of the modlog technical design in Lemmy, where ban reasons cannot be changed after the fact and federated out. It is not technically possible to provide a "right of reply" or to remove the comment from the modlog in either piefed or lemmy.

What we did do is talk to the folks who banned Rimu and MrKaplan, asked them not to do it again, and reversed the bans. And the admin who was involved also stepped down from his admin role. That's about as much as could be reasonably expected to happen, given the technical limitations. And afaik Rimu never asked to be unbanned, that was simply an act of good faith on our part.

And despite all the effort we put in to smooth things over, Rimu has consistently refused to engage in good faith with any of our admins over this, instead spreading intentional falsehoods and drama-farming over multiple posts.

These recent changes to PieFed were simply a blatant extension of his kneejerk response to the whole situation. Instead of building useful functionality like a right of reply such as we have in fediseer, his approach is just to shadow ban our instance and break proper federation of mod logs for all PieFed instances.

These actions are not designed to protect users, they are designed to protect the fragile-egos of power tripping admins who will seemingly go to any lengths to censor criticism of their actions, whether those criticisms are legitimate or not. It's childish behavior, and demonstrates Rimu has little commitment to the wider fediverse and the principles of transparency under which it operates.
