Another Black person played Mastodon "instance roulette" and lost.

We need a Mastodon instance Green Book pronto or this ain't gonna work.

This is starting to feel like the WW2 Dunkirk evacuation where the Black and Indian Commonwealth soldiers were abandoned on the beach...

Shout-out to Colonel John Ashdown, who was a Captain on that day at Dunkirk. He commanded a regiment of Indian soldiers and mules. He was ordered to abandon the Indians and the mules and save himself.

He refused. He abandoned the mules but marched his Indian soldiers to safety♥️

Of course they tried to court martial him for refusing the order to discard and abandon the soldiers he was responsible for.🤡

It's not OK to flee from the Titanic that is Twitter hitting the Musk Iceberg, and not care if the life boats let Black folk on.

Be like John Ashdown.

@mekkaokereke New users are having trouble navigating the signup process as it is. Now they need to worry about which servers have racist moderators. It’s really terrible.

@richburroughs @mekkaokereke I wonder if some of the more open-minded Mastodon admins out in the #Fediverse can step up and support #POC by elevating POC volunteers into moderator positions or instance moderation "oversight committees" (if something like that exists)?
