@pixelfed Any documentation on how malicious reporting is or can be handled?

@aral Sorry, I was not writing as clearly as the thought presented itself to me. Too early for me too ;-) I was commenting on how denying people (human) rights, starts/goes with dehumanizing them. Traits are picked for which you are deemed less than others, for which you are less human. And the discourse's default 'full humanness' (like color, sexuality, gender, etc.) is not defined directly, but only implicitly by defining what deviates or detracts from your humanness. Insidious.

@aral Why the effort is made to dehumanize, starting with classification of more and less based on whatever real or ascribed traits. Or rather, the more is never described, just implied by what is exhaustively made less.
