Literally this, and I keep seeing "we need shared defederation lists" like it's a catchall solution, but it doesn't even begin to address the culture problem like at all.

I had one of the more popular accounts on Mastodon Social, a white, male, New York liberal, compare me, a woman of ethnic and indigenous heritage, to an animal and then call me stupid for speaking up about my lived experiences with police brutality and systemic incarceration culture within marginalized communities growing up.

And this is a guy whose posts regularly make it to the top of Mastodon Social's Explore page!

Mastodon aggressively skews white, male, and privileged. At least, that's how it feels from the lack of social pushback those folks receive for what are sometimes truly rancid opinions and deeply personal attacks.
