Well, I guess I've hit the big time folks. This person came in here looking for a fight. My reply wasn't exactly my finest moment, and now it's splashed all over the bird as an example of how toxic CoSo is. SMH.

@elmaxx I mean, why should calling the site you just joined a piece of shit get you suspended?! Snowflakes! 😏 @voltronic
@voltronic It happens to the best of us and will continue to happen until further notice. Don't rough yourself up over it. Not worth your time. Some people are just jerks and that's that.
@voltronic "I was a massive asshole and got suspended!" 😭
@kel @voltronic please keep in mind many of those are the ones whose first post here is "I got suspended from Twitter for being an asshole"
@Susandoyle This. I’ve been on twitter for 14 years and have never been suspended @kel @voltronic
@voltronic yeah I saw that and srs nothing of value was lost. Don't feel bad.
this is how she describes herself:
🇺🇸⚓ Navy Vet, Research Meteorologist. I’m a mixed pansexual afro wearing pro choice pot smoking angry liberal atheist bitch. ⛔DMs. she/they/queen/goddess
she's looking for a fight everyplace she goes!
@voltronic
Your response was fine.
@voltronic You didn't do anything wrong there. Fro was looking for a fight.
@PaganMother @voltronic Yeah ,it's impolite to go to someone's house and insult them before you even sit down.
@voltronic And the replies are all congratulating this person. Which is not toxic at all.
@voltronic I used to follow her there for brief spell. She came in hot here (fairly on brand) and when I called her out on her part in that, there she doubled down. Well I did #verucasalt her. Anyhow haters looking for something to chew on.
@voltronic
All she did was make herself out to what she was
A person coming here to troll and fight
@voltronic Nothing wrong with your reply. Mine over on Twit is a bit more dodgy.
@voltronic I followed Fro on Twitter and again here and on Mastodon, until she started saying stupid crap . I’ve lost my tolerance for it.
@voltronic Fro didn't like it when one of her twitter followers called out her bad behaviour either.
@voltronic
That account was looking for a fight from the get-go. And, guaranteed not to last long because of its behavior here. Your response was not out of line imo
@voltronic , eh. The attention span there is increasingly brief. Figure out what you want to learn from it and be glad you don't have to deal with them anymore. I think you're a pretty fair and thoughtful soul here, for whatever that's worth. 🤗
when you see that kind of anger and hate, that is so disproportionate to anything that could have prompted it, you can be pretty sure that they are dealing with issues that actually have nothing to do with you.
people are suffering, all around us, and sometimes they let that spill in to other contexts.
@grapho And, again, the responses to her "own" are uniformly positive. Which goes to show that Twaddle appeals to a certain type of person. Toxic and not to be tolerated. @voltronic
@grapho And old LL would rip
her a new one. But why? It won't do any good. She revels in conflict. And that's just not my scene, Gene. @voltronic
@grapho She's just another angry person on Twitter. Dime a dozen, and not special. @voltronic
@voltronic I don't think we are the toxic ones in this scenario
I'm confused.
If you come into the house and pee on the rug, you get to play outside. I thought everywhere had those rules?
@voltronic Absolutely nothing wrong with your reply! You were defending something good with a person who obviously doesn’t know what it’s like to have a calm environment. Pretty shallow assessment on their part.
@voltronic nothing you said was "toxic" or even agreesive. They came in with the intent for discord.
@voltronic She forgot to mention that she also go a "welcome" reply to that nonsense, too.
cc: @phase
@voltronic I’d be proud of that reply, spot on.
@voltronic also there's nothing really horrible about your reply though. you made a logical suggestion to counter that attitude. but still sucks.
You left out the best part "This got me suspended. Seriously."
@bluesbaby @voltronic she didn't like it when I told her it wasn't the own she thought it was
@voltronic I mean, she came in here smashing shit. How did she think it was gonna go?
@voltronic Absolutely no reflection on you,they came in busting for a fight and got off lightly in my opinion.No big loss to CoSo.
@voltronic their acct on Twitter was made very recently. That often means some fool looking to stir shit.
F twitter. F them.
Your response was fine imho.
We know the truth. Cosonauts on bird know the truth. Anyone who believes the lie without getting the facts aren't worthy of our time or worry.
@voltronic
My eyes just rolled all the way to Virginia.
@voltronic That interaction is so emblematic of #twitter as a whole.
High clout person comes in here, drops the kind of drip that (on the birdsite) gets them more clout, gets , goes back to the birdsite, drops drip about the interaction, audience applaud, high clout person gets more clout.
@voltronic There's a lot of people that think that kind of abusive attitude is legitimate humor and anyone who is not accepting of it is somehow in the wrong. I'm glad you challenged that.
@voltronic Half her post are about being high. I'm sure she would have brought *so much* to the community. 🙄
@voltronic I saw her tweet about the incident. I told her I disagreed that this site is ‘full of fascists’. To me it reveals something about her.
@voltronic It is very hard when the troublemakers come to not just go directly in. We who have observed you and CoSo know they are full of shite
