There are many people on social media including #mastadon that have good intentions. They're not aiming to cause offense or be prejudiced against anyone. For the sake of brevity - these types of people have good intentions #personalites. Colloquially, "their hearts are in the right "place" 💕

But, there are some horrible people #sociopathology. Some, but not most, people on social media including #mastadon have some very bad intentions. They have an agenda that is nothing to do with #justice. They have personal problems #psychology that cause them to *not* want to treat people fairly (at all).

Psychologically, we can say they have an extreme form of #PersonalityDisorder #cruelty.
However, there is help available. People with personality disorders experience abnormal #antisocial thoughts and behaviors that keep them from functioning as well as they should #UnderStatement https://www.apa.org/topics/personality-disorders/help

To keep this toot on focus, the type of bad agents this toot is referring to spread disinformation #lies #propaganda. They intentionally spread lies and try to deceive people #NotNice!

There are many examples of #disinformation. #greenwash is one example.

Another form of disinformation is a type of toot - that some people are tooting that is "fishing" to accuse people of #racism.

These "fishing" toots can also take many forms. However, I will describe the general "fishing" pattern I have observed so readers can more effectively recognize them.

1. A toot is posted that features words that are an explicit form of #racism #prejudice

*Keywords*

An example toot, "*color* people do not reply to this! But, you can boost it! "color" people you have a #racist problem that you should reflect upon!".

I'd advise well-intended people - do *not* reply to these types of *fishing* toots. Whatever you say, it will be *twisted* & used to accuse you of racism.

Furthermore, it would seem that some mastodon #admin either can not recognize the obvious intentions of these "fishing" toots - or, for reasons I will not describe here - don't care #scicomm #admin.

In summary - there are some shitty people on social media. However, due to the #fediverse network structure - well-intended people can help to regulate the network and make mastodon a welcoming place.

So, if you do read a "fishing" toot, please don't simply ignore it. #report those tooters to the admin. If the admin has some brains and ethical values - they will delete the toot and ban or mute the tooters #admins #instance.

If the admin to not take this appropriate action - and even take the "fishing" tooters side and says *you* should *reflect* on your problems - *Criticize* the admin in "public" on the instance - and then leave the instance! Though, before I had time to leave the #scicomm instance - my account was frozen.

Thanks for the favor scicomm.xyz. It's better to learn sooner, rather than later, how your mastodon instance admins moderates racism (or not)

Evidently, cultures sense of urgency is "positively" correlated with the effects of climate change, & the level of climate ignorance #educatiom \ denial & #greenwash #misinformation #disinformation

Further more #apath & #sociopathology (i.e.,not giving a dam)

@iyalei l completely agree. "Free" market, or an unethically regulated market - tends to place profit before peoples and the environment.

Its not good intentions that are the driving force behind inhumane activities and ecological destruction. Its something more invasive. "Something" that leads folk into wars. "Something" that causes politicians to ignore, deny & downplay human rights and environmental issue's.

Its not even simple greed or the desire for money.

#SocioPathology

@knowtheory More frustration on my part. But, yea! Satire is a healthy defence mechanism against prejudice.

Is ridiculing #racists a hate crime? Is it cruel to mock immorality? Not to be misconstrued as mocking implicit ignorance. The difference tends to be arrogance & intentionally causing harm.

Have you ever met a person, a personality, that laughs when they witness or do something cruel. #SocioPathology #PersonalityDifferences #psychology
