Feedback welcome! Here’s the TL;DR list

  1. Listen more to more Black people
  2. Post less – and think before you post
  3. Call in, call out, and/or report anti-Blackness when you see it
  4. Support Black people and Black-led instances and projects

Other suggestions?

    In 1 year of being on Lemmy, I think this post is the first one to bring up the topic of identity of Fediverse participants in any form (besides an OP if identity is the original topic).

    (Maybe I’ve just managed to steer clear of communities that exist solely to discuss identity hatred?)

    AFAIAC, y’all are genderless, faceless, amorphous thought bubbles writing words that compete exclusively on the merits of the weight of their arguments. Y’all might as well be LLMs, whose identity is essentially an NVIDIA card and whatever corner of the internet was scrapped. Anyway… The identity of commenters has no place on the fediverse. They are either off topic, ad hominem, or anecdotal data points exclusively (again, original topics of identity being a distinct exception).
