re: meta, eightpoint, rape
@Leiracal@tech.lgbt Honestly, I don't see any of that reflected in tech.lgbt's reason for defederation, which seems to boil down to basically this: https://social.pixie.town/@joepie91/109863561597630546
Given that there is an unresolved issue of rapist shielding, I'd say that *that* should be the center of the conversation, and not some nebulous notion of defederation "having gone too far" (something that is a recurring claim in such cases involving abuser shielding, I should note).
What destroyed the community is the abuse, not the defederation. And that is where the focus should lie.
