@SamuelBepis @freemo @Darkayne FWIW, I've been on QOTO a month now and haven't seen any race science or bigotry. The few moderation decisions I've seen have been thoughtful and nuanced.
@freemo isn't always the best at clearly communicating his intentions, but from everything I've seen so far, his heart appears to be in the right place.
As a member of the LGBTQ community, I never felt anything less than welcomed on QOTO. And, if I had to describe the tone of my Local feed here, it's mostly STEM-related material, but of the few political-or-politics-adjacent posts I see, the vast majority seem to be left-leaning.

I don't know where this dramatic characterization of QOTO being a hive of right-wing disinfo and bigotry comes from, but it really doesn't seem to have any basis in reality.

@SamuelBepis

Where? Here is a direct quote from our ToS:

> We do not allow people to disseminate ideologies that are abusive or violent towards others. Demonstrating support for or defending ideologies known to be violent or hateful is a bannable offense. This includes, but is not limited to: racial supremacy, anti-LGBTQ or anti-cis-gender/anti-straight, pro-genocide, child abuse or child pornography, etc. **While we recognize questions and conversation regarding these topics are essential for a STEM community, in general, doing so in bad faith will result in immediate expulsion.**

The examples you gave explicitly fall under "asking questions in bad faith".

are you suggesting we should ban people simply for having unpopular opinions?

I am offically stepping down as a Council member from the in an attempt to choose a more impartial head until an election can be done. If anyone has issue with QOTO being in the UFoI please report it with any evidence and the new head will remove us from the UFoI, thanks.

@favus ::eyes you suspiciously:: That sounds exactly like sometthing I'd expect an AI to say!

@EubieDrew lets hope we get the reporting system up quick and we can start addressing these issues.

@EubieDrew prevails as in, fixes the problems... no its not a war, but there is a problem to be addressed.

@EubieDrew

Funny how these acusations never actually back up their claim.. just fling shit with no evidence, and never even explaining what they mean

@fuzzychef

Last thing about qoto's "you can't defederate from me" club I promise 

@selea

And what is that, what exactly "is it" that you didnt realize?
