Sp I wrote a pretty lengthy blog post entitled:

Eugen Rochko, CEO of Mastodon, Found to Support Nazi’s Agenda

Sadly I wish it was clickbait.

You can all read it here:

It is the pinnacle of the recent drama. I will also be sharing it on twitter, linking the joinmastodon account there. I tried to include most of the evidence in the article. Hopefully this will have some positive result

@Gargron @trinsec @khird

I would call this clickbait after reading the whole (confusing and one-sided) post.

@freemo @Gargron @trinsec @khird

@oligneisti

Feel free to offer any specific objections that are inaccurate or confusing and ill be happy to help clean up the article.

One sided, absolutely.. no way to really not make it one sided if I'm the author and Eugen refuses to comment despite tons of requests of him from many people for comments.

That said, thats also why I provided links and photo evidence where possible.

@Gargron @trinsec @khird

@oligneisti

three, assuming we count screenshots of dead links (wince most of the ancient history is now dead). 2 for snow, one for his attempt to get us on fediblock... I am happy to add a few more if you feel that would be helpful. Im sure I could dig up some more links if i search through history enough.

@Gargron @trinsec @khird

The screenshots in question don't actually have anything to do with the claim you make in the subject of your post.

@freemo @Gargron @trinsec @khird

@oligneisti

Sure it does, it is part of a long chain of events.. Snow created a campaign of misinformation, Eugen knew about it and despite this caved to said campaign because it worked and was popular.. they are directly related.

@Gargron @trinsec @khird

Yes, these are links in a chain but they don't connect to the the claim in subject.

@freemo @Gargron @trinsec @khird

@oligneisti

Im not sure i follow... The links seem clear to me, please let me know how i might carify

snow engaged in disinformation to get us delisted/defederated -> instances bought the ruse -> Eugen knew of Snows agenda -> since the agenda was working eugen caved to the intended agenda to remain popular.

what am I missing?

@Gargron @trinsec @khird

The chain metaphor is apt because you are showing me one link but only telling me about the others.

@freemo @oligneisti@social.linux.pizza @Gargron @trinsec @khird

@oligneisti

Not sure what you mean by that.. which link am I showing you vs ones I'm telling you?

@oligneisti @Gargron @trinsec @khird

The "link" you are showing me is composed of the screenshots. You are not showing me anything else. The missing links are actual hyperlinks to the rest of your claims.

@oligneisti

Can you give a specific example of something I said that could be linked to but wasnt? I'll be happy to try to dig up relevant links to any points where such a link exists.

@oligneisti Perhaps it would help if i quote the text of Eugen's email to me, which is the only response he ever made on the matter and refused to discuss further... but it would still require you to "trust" i am quoting faithfully.

I am also not sure if that is legal.
