Discussion
The thing to remember is every accusation is a confession. Or telling you how you should feel as they've lost control.
Including "you should all be ashamed of yourselves."
They felt shame. There's the empathy hit, that makes them want to lash out as you made them feel bad. They need the control back.
Those of us who've had that move done to us recognise it for the abusive outburst it is.
There are other projects to support and works we need to do. There's a lot to be done.
Find the folks who do care. Who are political and upfront about it. Who understand about community safety and don't have distain for their communities.
You'll get more done without catering to abusers needs. Be picky, be mindful.
The projects who need our help and who can help you are out there.
There's FOSS folks out there who aren't fascists and like you don't feel at home in FOSS anymore.
