So it got public (or something) that a larger personality did go after a trans person and the bsky moderation team looked over it and decided to change the tos for them instead of a ban what would be appropriate as they threatened another user.
And like the entire black/trans/ally community got pissed and some part of them are now seeking new “lands”
About the Waffles: Charlie Kirk liked them so a lot of people wanting to align with him are posting a bunch of waffle pictures in solidarity
Connection to Bsky: i dont know. Its a new dogwhistle
Why does kiwifarms seem to come up lately in places I would not expect. It seems like people who become victims of their harassment have actively engaged with them at some point, and continue to feed them rather than ignore them. Which leads to things getting worse, and eventually things like death threats.
What’s the drama?

Online harassers, if you ignore them, try harder until you cannot. They’re no ordinary trolls.
