Free Link Black Panther button like Free Huey. 1 0 1

As you can see in this screenshot, not only are AJ Link's post and profile still available elsewhere, he is still posting (though seemingly less happily) freedom of speech unimpeded
This app Red Dwarf by @whey.party skips the bookstore and goes straight to the author. blacksky.community doesn't 5/11

“finish adding a feature” we literally all thought was there from the get go. “finish adding a feature” when jay yelled at all of us to shut the fuck up and federate if we wanted change.

unbelievable

I wish I could explain to the "we're doomed" folk that it usually takes a long time for a species to go extinct. Understand? We're talking generations upon generations before the last human.

So if we're going to be around for a while either way, we might as well make things better instead.

As a dev, I’ve been trying to work with projects like Mastodon for awhile to improve conditions for Black folks in the fediverse.

Those efforts have been met with scorn, ridicule and some of the most racist moments I’ve experienced on the web.

It’s just not a place where Black folks can be safe

Link has always been a positive plus for Bluesky.

Let's be crystal clear the reason for his ban is goalpost moving because the CEO didn't like being called out for racism and bigotry.

That's it. That's literally it.

Greta Thunberg “I'm not scared of Israel. I’m scared of a world that has seemingly lost all sense of humanity.”

Stand with Greta, stand with humanity.

This is Reform in a nutshell: they tell everyone, including themselves, that things are Bad and if only they had power, they would Fix It.

But they can’t and they don’t, because all they’ve got is complaining.

For those that don’t know, I’ve been building safety tools that track instances that allow hateful behavior in the fediverse.

It’s called The Bad Space.

You can just pop in a url and see what other instances have said about them.

B/c the fedi is not safe for Black folks

Probably last point. Fuck the leadership at Bluesky. Fuck the folks who keep putting technology over people (this is *literally* the reason why this shit keeps happening).

I mean, apart from anything else, if Jay and Co did not want to hear from or about Link any longer, this is the one course of action that will guarantee they will have his name ringing in their ears for weeks on end.

This is false.

Mastodon instance admins behave similarly to Bluesky admins as they will ban someone for a perceived slight.

A recent example

DON'T! We need this in the history book

Can't believe Link is suspended. Generally was one few reason why I stay on Blue sky.

I am BEGGING the minors in Morgan's discord to please stop saying their ages. Y'all need to learn internet safety pls 😭

Why tf do so many tech people end up catching King George style madness?

Remember Caillou? Well this is him now. Feel old yet?

What we won’t do here is slander Rudy.

Rudy is Rudy. He does his own thing. He has been consistent and transparent and been nothing but kind to folks.

Focus energy elsewhere. I ain’t tolerating talking bout a Black man working hard.

Lil Nas X in MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name):

Saw some post somewhere earlier about people “not getting” transness or whatever

You don’t have to get it.

If you believe in bodily autonomy for all, then no one needs you to understand their personal situation to earn being seen as a person by you.

You just treat every human being as a person.

We’re too quick to tell a traumatized person that it’s their responsibility to heal without considering what has been taken from them.

can someone set up everyonebutjaysky
