When people use "free speech" as a pejorative, I think about people like those reporters in the post boosted below. I wish we would stop enabling bad actors trying to co-opt free speech by making it a simple synonym for hate speech.Don't know if you've noticed, but the hate speech crew aren't for free speech; they also enjoy book burnings and government censorship when it's others whose speech is controlled. If people are doing hate speech, *call it that*. Don't let them muddy the waters.

This is your daily reminder that free speech is not a synonym for hate speech.Hate speech is the anti-free speech, weaponised speech intended to intimidate and silence others. People who call hate speech "free speech" do not support or protect the speech of others.When you use free speech as a euphemism for hate speech, you help them spread the idea that free speech is bad into popular culture, which is the first step in dismantling it. Call hate speech what it is. :ablobcatcoffee:

@apps if someday you had nothing higher priority, it would be nice if I could set preferred posting languages so when I change language on my post my preferred languages are at the top so I don't have to scroll through the list so much :ablobcatheart: #BilingualProblems

This is a big difference in how Mastodon works vs how Twitter worksOn Twitter what you followed only showed up in your personal timelineOn Mastodon what you follow shows up for everyone in the public timeline on your instance

We're not connected to Facebook MetaTextSocial (or whatever stupid name they're going to call their fediservice) nowWe're all panicking that they're going to come pretend to be nice (even though we all know they're phonies) and gradually make their stuff incompatible with what we have nowAnd then!We... won't be able to talk to Facebook anymore?Okay I'll get right on riding that panic train. Any minute now

In today's #fediblock #fedidrama (jk this has been simmering for at least a week) #UFOI and #Fedifence servers have started blocking each other en masse+ admins who signed to UFOI are :surprised_pikachu: to discover after TLDRing the 30 page github manifesto they don't actually get a vote in blocking decisionsif you're a #fediverse user on a UFOI or Fedifence server & don't want your communication disrupted by this jr high dramatic production, maybe time to get an alt on an uninvolved server

With all the new users + profit-driven, corporate services like #Threads and #Facebook (but also #Tumblr etc.) joining the #Fediverse, now's a GREAT TIME to give back to your local instance & help make sure the fedi we love doesn't get bulldozed and turned into shopping mallSupport your local! :ablobcatheart: -----@milan runs #tchncs for us out of his own pocket, on his own time, and besides #Mastodon, he supports #Pixelfed, #Bookwyrm, #Lemmy, #Matrix & morehttps://tchncs.de/donate

The #Fedilab #cats got poisonedLéa and Milka made it but Nezuko passed awayhttps://toot.fedilab.app/@apps/110726206809768941If you want to help @apps with the vet costs to save Léa and Milka and the cost of Nezuko's autopsy to support the police report there's a GoFundMe page herehttps://www.gofundme.com/f/autopsie-pour-un-de-mes-chatsTom's given so much of his own time and work to the community over the years, and he's never really asked for anything back, so if you've got a little extra, he could use some support right now#CatsOfMastodon

my fave socials interact is when Person A says something that could be read several waysare they asking for help? looking for sympathy? starting a convo? they just bitching?time to put on your psychic beanie and play guess the intent!so Person B guesses wrong and does something gauche and stupid like offer a link to the actual information A complained they can't find, allowing A to smugly, self-righteously lay into B for being a "reply guy" and "in their mentions"#HowDare #ItsATrap
