After seeing how the admin of gladtech[DOT]social handled a recent situation with a racist user, I'm going to recommend blocking that instance.
After admitting a user had multiple reports of racist behavior and using an ai generated of a Black woman to do it behind, it was deemed that they would be allowed to stay on that instance.
This is unacceptable for a couple of reasons. To give a racist the benefit of the doubt after multiple infractions only invites that behavior to continue. And secondly, hiding your identity behind the face of a generated face of the people you are targeting implies a nefarious attempt to avoid consequences and is inherently a bad faith practice of a person who is anti-black and only seeks to cause harm.
Taking the word of a bigot after multiple infractions and deciding there should be no consequences and not limiting their ability to harass others simply invites more hateful behavior to continue and makes the fedi less safe.
