#Mastodon has had its own problems with burying pro-#Palestine voices and platforming Zionists. Some gave suggested that it is because the flagship instance (mastodondotsocial) is based in #Germany and relies on a Germany-based nonprofit for funding. We’ve seen how Germany polices pro-Palestine movements in its streets.

This is not a defense of other platforms, but it is to say that I don’t have any sense of security here either.

Seeing reports on other social media of #Minneapolis getting posts deranked and buried. We should remind people that #Mastodon has many popular servers hosted outside the US.

The situation with #ICE has been getting worse there, but coverage has declined a lot. There have been drones and helicopters overhead, even overnight. People have started hiding neighbors in their homes. As well as organizing food distribution networks to limit time in public, and help people who aren’t able to work.
