@vkc Yeah it's amazing how, when you talk about arsehole behaviour on social media, arseholes arrive to demonstrate exactly what you were talking about.

@vkc holy shit, why do assholes feel the need to come out of the swamp! so sorry you (and everyone else) have had to undure that kind of crap

@vkc using the negative comments that you have gotten to add some suspends on our instance. You are better to have here than all of them combined, easily.

@cobweb @vkc @eq Oh, they know. They support the shit, that's the problem.

@cyberwitch @vkc that’s exactly what instance moderators do, all the time.

But if you self-host an instance (like Veronica does) that’s on you, you’re choosing to be your only moderator so you have to moderate. Moderating sucks, and that’s not exclusive to the fediverse at all. If you don’t want to deal with that, you can always go to an instance hosted by someone else who deals with this. There is literally nothing other people can do to defederate people from someone else’s instance (there are blocklists I think tho?).

@vkc@linuxmom.net this is the reason I haven't spoken out about the NUMEROUS times it's affected me

@vkc @eq Aye

@alex02 @vkc You are here at her sufferance, not because you have the right to say whatever the fuck you want- on a post about sexual harassment, no less. What an entitled prick.

@alex02 There was nothing obnoxious or hostile about Veronica’s response to you. You did hijack the thread and make it about yourself. Don’t do that. @vkc

@vkc I'll fight sexual harassment anyday.
