<midfavila>

<midfavila>
alta is seething
<midfavila>
feels fuckin good man
<midfavila>
i voted ndp but man i am libbin it up so hard rn
<kris_>
oh boy fediverse drama
<midfavila>
is there fediverse drama
<midfavila>
?
<midfavila>
this is just canada drama
<kris_>
there is, unrelated to what you were talking about
<kris_>
fosstodon is probably gone
<midfavila>
isnt fosstodon one of the shittier instances
<kris_>
i don't really know, it was where i made my first mastodon account given foss brain
<kris_>
basically everyone's pissed and defederating from them because they decided to make someone who has potentially problematic political views a moderator
<kris_>
said person being your average right winger and has a history of removing posts and stuff like that on reddit
<kris_>
so the original fosstodon founders are basically like fuck it we're just going to shut down
<kris_>
still playing out but for the moment i don't think i'm going to defederate the instance i administrate
<kris_>
there are a lot of good people who are on fosstodon, at least for the moment until it probably shuts down, so
<midfavila>
idk your average right winger wants to electrocute gay people and forcibly detransition trans people at this point in NA
<midfavila>
so like
<midfavila>
probably not someone you want in any position of power in any remote capacity ever
<midfavila>
ideally they would just kick that person off
<kris_>
that's not what i saw out of this
<kris_>
one of the main things people were upset with is that he opposes children being able to keep their gender identity at school or otherwise a secret from their parents
<kris_>
but this person just self moderated, deleted their mastodon and reddit accounts
<midfavila>
yeah forcing people out of the closet is a great way to fuck them over
<midfavila>
i've met people here who had that happen to them and they ended up getting kicked out of their house
<midfavila>
so
<midfavila>
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
<kris_>
yeah i get it
<kris_>
but regardless of whether or not that's okay to do, why would you come out of the closet at school out of all places if you don't want your parents to know
<kris_>
at least where i went to school it would have taken someones parents like 2 days to hear about it via just people talking about it
<midfavila>
sometimes the school has a very different environment than home. i dunno, i don't think it's the best idea, but i don't think schools should be outing kids
<kris_>
well, they shouldn't be
<kris_>
anyway yeah that about concludes the fedi drama
<midfavila>
sounds pretty normal for the fediverse
<kris_>
it is, you should see our blocklist lol
<midfavila>
meh
<kris_>
or rather, defed list
<kris_>
