@meso why do you only post about "faggots" and "groomers" for some weeks now? You know exactly that except for some poastie low lives nobody on fedi appreciates this language.
Why do you give so much headspace to hate that is completely optional, you could actually do something useful or have sex instead of showing this amount of obsession which most people find puzzling in the least

@meso well then I hope you will come to terms with it eventually, it really comes off like projection and it just gives bad vibes. Ever since I introduced "actual fedi" into this Mastodong instance I try to balance out the different cohorts in a pragmatic manner, I really dislike Fediblock witchhunts but I don't want to flood "Federated" with slurs exclusively. I think the sheer amount of your use of the word doesn't look like ironic pragmatism but a fair share of bitterness about it

@p @meso the pic gives off very uneasy vibes but the way most people understand "groomer" is manipulating someone into sexual exploitation. This is a profound accusation that should be exclusive to cases that are unambiguous. I don't exactly know if this person is attempting this, it could also be projection ("transgender identity works for me so it'll work for you") or just aesthetic preferences outside sexuality. My main point still was that meso exposes himself to anger voluntarily

This is what I would call "egg-cracking", yes.

> accusation that should be exclusive to cases that are unambiguous.

Did you ask if meso has seen this person before, how old the person being addressed is, etc.?

> My main point still was that meso exposes himself to anger voluntarily

Might be the case if he is angry, but I think it is reasonable to keep track of predatory behavior. You know about the pedo instances, some of which actively recruit teenagers; I'd rather know about them than not know about them.

You give off very ok vibes tbh if you would initiate sexual advances in a non ok way it would probably be because of a lack of understanding social norms, not ill intent as far as I can tell

@p @meso @p @meso
"egg cracking" is usually one of the following three:

• projection of own content with trans identity

can come off as cult-like ("The spaceship will also set you free, you just have to follow me!!")
The problematic part is the cult like behavior like lovebombing and destabilizing another ones identity, but it's not sexual

• aesthetic favor for gender-unorthodox presentation

generally unproblematic

• trying to gain sexual material of boys

problematic, send the firing squad

I mean poast is a symptom of filth, not the filth itself (if they went another "worse" instance will always be there, the internet is a mirror of society and so its problems will always appear here too)

Weeding out predators is always the way of objective harm reduction so I would go with that

> • projection of own content with trans identity

I believe that there are plenty of sincere people and this sort of thing does occur. It does sound to me like you are not willing to acknowledge the psychopaths that have picked out an identity because it makes them immune to criticism. This absolutely occurs, and "A psychopath would never claim to be trans!" is an absurd statement.

> • aesthetic favor for gender-unorthodox presentation

People phrase it very differently when it's something like that.

> • trying to gain sexual material of boys
> problematic, send the firing squad

Sure; no disagreement from me.

> not the filth itself

This is why I said "the mean accounts", not "Poast". There are a lot of cool people on Poast. Informally, just from the time spent running FSE, the people that caused problems seemed to be very few, and the analysis from years back had results consistent with that. The only issue with Poast is that 2-4% ends up multiplied by a larger total number of users, and the nature of the issue: you'll see noisier people far more often.

> another "worse" instance

Oh, you mean nice crew dot dijiddle. But I think you are qualifying it too much and then negating the premise; it's implausible that they'd all disappear and not come back, but a genie granting wishes is even more implausible.

> Weeding out predators is always the way of objective harm reduction so I would go with that

Yeah, it seems obvious. But if you're too worried that it might rile up the wrong people ("It would be way easier to call them out if it wouldn't attract poastie psychopaths in the replies immediately demanding industrial mass extinction of all trans people"), then you're choosing the other side of the trade-off. If someone ought to do the right thing regardless of who disapproves, it follows that they should also do the right thing regardless of who approves. The Rotherham police were so worried about looking racist that they ignored 1,400 cases of abduction and sexual assault.

@p @meso
My point is from knowing that there is a coordinated effort by big evangelical christian money and terminally online keyboard warriors to program everyone to immediately suspect anyone with trans identity in the public sphere of being a predator.
But on second thought, yeah I can see your point in weaponizing protected class status to cause mischief, for me the keffals debacle immediately comes to mind. I got the naive hope that even hostile cohorts should work together to stop this

Yes, I'm aware there are people that want to push that story. On one end of it, they want to paint all of them with that brush, and on the other end of it, they refuse to acknowledge that the problem exists because they are concerned that it hurts their own legitimacy.


> I got the naive hope that even hostile cohorts should work together to stop this

I have hoped for this and have not seen it. I've seen internet-Nazis complaining about Larry Fink or the IMF/World Bank/Rothschilds/Rockefellers/Carnegies/etc., and I say "You know, if you just put down your fixation on Jews for a minute, you could get people behind eliminating that particular stranglehold; even I'd sign up for that." Same as with the commies, the ideology is more important than the practical effects. So the big international banks will stay right where they are, ruining everything like usual.

This is actually why I was a little harsh initially, I'm so used to people jumping in and being in one brigade or the other that it gets hard to notice when someone's got an opinion that doesn't fit into the culture-war box; apologies.
