@ceoln good point. But the level of trust is not what it could otherwise be. It is not so much that isolated post for POC-only it is that they are in a silo and con themselves into amped up belief in their own victimhood and righteousness. And become vitriolic at any dissent.
Her post is a symptom of a larger problem.
They claim victimhood in some cases for shit that happened 150 years ago. But black-on-white crime is a reality they won't acknowledge.
A kid puts anti-black graffitti on a wall in Florida and it makes the news in Seattle. A white person gets robbed at gunpoint in Philly and it doesn't even make the evening news in Pennsylvania.
That is a problem and that is why Trump and DeSantis are getting away with what they do.
As long as these people silo themselves and run the left left so out of touch with white working class, the fascism will continue to flourish and there won't be too much that can be done for people who shut off dialogue.
@empiricism that is why i am anon account on qoto. Because the admin here is aware of all that bullshit.
But I think qoto.org is block listed by a lot of admins. Not sure the extent of it.
On the flip side, there is some crazy shit out there in the fedi that qoto does not block which may or may not become problematic.
@ceoln they-those who post "blacks/poc only" threads which are full of falsities and diss on white people and overgeneralize and the woke white people who parrot what they are being told and say you are a racist if you don't toe the line.
Wish I could engage but they are like body-snatchers luring otherwise-interesting people into their cult of whatever the party line happens to be. It is necessary to be able to engage these folks to get any kind of coalition going unless you prefer to engage with QAnon crazies on the other side of the political fence.
The #blacksonly silo on mastodon is a spiral of self-pity and stolen valor of 19th century slaves who revolted.
Mention all the times you as a white person were subject to violent crime/POC perps, you'd be lucky if it was just crickets.
But no then that makes YOU are racist. And the din of accusations are enough to make you deaf to whatever legitimate points these people are making,
@ceoln By itself. But that mentality is spiralling. And they egg each other on into victimhood etc etc. Then they want reparations.

I never, ever use the term "reverse racism". But I will be accused of it.
This picture shows that these people are creating a silo where they only allow the politically correct party line. #icallbullshit
Thank you for this update, I am planning to stay here on qoto,
If need be I can block people / servers who support or who are posting inappropriate content easy enough
What I have seen has NOT originated from Qoto, which makes it far easier to block the server it does originate on.
@ypc_bunsen just to add: in the end I am staying on QOTO for the tech features I value. Works for me. And thanks to @freemo for the supporting admin and devel work.
