social punishment on fedi is so weird and we find it quite worrying

we keep seeing certain fedi bubbles going out of their way to imagine the worst possible version of something and then react to that imagined version as if it were fact ...

it feels like for those folks everything gets reduced to cartoon villainy if there is not enough pre-established trust. any criticism that could have been a discussion gets escalated into a sentencing

that also removes the possibility that something can be flawed without being evil, and that folks can work on flawed things without being malicious

we're really glad that we have gotten more resilient and have been able to get better grips on our trauma responses because the response to the post about the app we worked on from yesteday might have sent us a few months ago

we only wish that some folks would just fucking take a breath

@0 You have got to love when people try to imagine the worst possible thing you might have said and then spreading that sentiment instead of just asking. I am sorry that mouse is in the middle of that neocat_sad

@star we know that black and white thinking from ourselves and we wonder if many people on fedi being neurodivergent like us might be a factor in it
