Meat Grindr: Misogyny isn't the only systemic failure online. Pressure and coercion violate the Principle of Agency. We move from Corrupted Code (Force) to Clean Code (Power).

Scenario: A newly single man on Grindr is pressured to meet up immediately without safety checks. The messager replies:

❌ Corrupted Code (Force):
"Stop making excuses. If you're serious, you'd come over now. Don't waste my time." (Coercive; ignores safety and agency.)

✅ Clean Code (Power):
"I understand you need to take your time. Your safety is most important. Let's do a quick video chat first, or we can chat more until you feel ready." (Affirms boundary; prioritizes well-being.)

The difference? The second message respects pace and safety. What boundary can you clearly state today?

Misogyny isn't just poor communication; it's a Systemic Failure that violates the Principle of Trust. We fix it by moving from Corrupted Code (Force) to Clean Code (Power).

Scenario: A woman declines a nude request. The man sends one anyway (unsolicited). She declines to send her own. The man replies:

❌ Corrupted Code (Force):
"Okay, but you need to send me one back now. It's only fair." (This assumes entitlement and ignores consent.)

✅ Clean Code (Power):
"My apologies, sending that was out of line. I should have respected your initial 'no.' I respect your boundaries entirely." (This affirms integrity.)

The difference? The second message rebuilds trust. What boundary can you clearly state today?

Scaling Respect + Consent on the Fediverse!

Designed this infographic to map out practical steps—from easy wins to high-impact shifts—for building a kinder, more respectful online community.

It’s about intentional architecture for digital spaces. Let’s move beyond just wishing for better interactions and start actively building them.

Check out the solutions ranked by realism:
💡 Easy Wins
⚙️ Mid-Level Success
⛰️ Harder but High Impact
*typo: Mid level success, 2nd line is supposed to be "peer accountability"
Also: last point heading: “amplify role models, hold peers accountable”

🧵 3of3 — Summary/ TL;DR
Solutions ranked by realism (easy → hard):
- Easy wins: share experiences, thank respectful men, teach “dirty talk vs. misogyny,” push consent memes, include bi/queer voices

- Mid‑level: amplify role models, peer accountability, pin/circulate threads, bridge online + IRL

- Harder lifts: avatar/gender swaps, federated moderation codes, keep repeating discourse

👉Share our stories, amplify good role models, hold peers accountable. Culture shifts when we keep showing up.

This ranking (easy → hard) helps us focus energy where success is most realistic, while still aiming for systemic change.

The Fediverse thrives on community norms, not corporate algorithms — so scaling respect and consent is about culture itself.

Every post adds weight. Let’s scale respect + consent together.
