Let's be honest, that's not "anarchism", that's having a mind molded by social media. Blocking someone, kicking them out of a space, even imagining violence against people, doesn't resolve these problems, it just makes it someone else's problem.

The longer it goes on the more ppl reveal that they believe everyone around them is effectively unchangeable, that bigotry and chauvinism are things to expel from a space rather than something that is always present and needs to be worked through if we want to change anything

"We should replace some kind of restorative process with acts of violence on those who have been harmed" -well what about the number of times transwomen and black people have been falsely accused? What about the groomer panic going on right now? "Well that would never happen"

websites that promise to change websites forever are *exactly* when you should get suspicious. i have more trust in cohost because it is promising less, which shows a realistic understanding of the possibilities of tech under capitalism.

as i said on locked yesterday: "the radical idea of cohost is that a good website is possible. its not that cohost will make websites good, because you cant do that without changing the society that produces websites." this is the key mistake free-software-heads make constantly

recently i've come to the conclusion that social media is a psychic weight under which we willingly crush ourselves. the extent to which i feel comfortable endorsing any social media site is highly limited, but as far as your options go, cohost is far better than the competition
