Content warning: Fediblock tech.lgbt
I recommend a #fediblock of tech.lgbt or at least silence with reports rejected, which is what rage.love currently has in place with suspension being considered. There is an active user on the instance who has abused the report system to send harassing messages that, among other things, concern-trolled about the reported user's young child. You are free to look at the screenshots to decide for yourself on the behavior.
To their credit, tech.lgbt mods have been candid about their process--this user has been warned about their behavior, which they are said to have fully acknowledged as wrong, and will be watched more closely in the future.
Nevertheless, the mods have chosen to retain the user who remains active on the instance. Seeing how the same user or any other could reoffend under tech.lgbt's moderation stance, I recommend at least limiting contact.
(The redaction of the user's account information is at the tech.lgbt moderators' request. For more on this and clarification about rage.love's instance-level moderation of tech.lgbt, see downthread.)
![LJ doesn't even apologise to people herself. Her child will grow up hating white people (I sure hope LJ isn't white or that'd be cause for concern with mental health reasons), won't do research on anything and will point the finger at anyone without knowing if they're actually at fault or not. I also imagine LJs child will grow up to be some kind of TERF, or one of those people who "supports trans people" but doesn't actually support them, and still sees them as the gender they were at birth.
- LJ is a moderator on mastodon.art, which is concerning because of her recent actions. LJ suspects you did something you didn't? Well, you just got banned from mastodon.art didn't ya? For what? Yeah, you're being accused of shit you didn't do right? On top of that, you're also "weaponizing your marginalized identity".
Oh, also this is anonymized apparently? I am [redacted]. pls report me IDC. Fuck LJ and welshpixie. They both don't care about *you*, they care about looking good online](https://keybored.me/photo/preview/640/1142011 "LJ doesn't even apologise to people herself.

in reply to Rage.Love Admin • • •Content warning: Fediblock tech.lgbt, user anonymity request
Though the user voluntarily identified themself in their report and tech.lgbt confirmed at my request that the identification is correct (the account is now suspended from r.l), I have redacted the account information from the screenshot because the mods feared my publicly posting about the user will cause this user to be harassed. This led me to consider the account information confirmed for internal purposes only and not for general release, hence the redaction.
Nevertheless, you may judge for yourself who tech.lgbt considers worthy of protection from harassment by retaining anonymity, while leaving anyone who interacts with this user open to potential harassment or unknowingly interacting with a harasser. This approach may have its merits in giving the user a chance and many may well agree with it, but may not be compatible with all instances' moderation policies. It certainly is not with ours.
