It's horrifying that my country is full of so many of these bigots who firmly deny the truth that Canada genocided the indigenous populations. And RECENTLY.

As a fellow artist, I'd love to say otherwise, but sometimes we have to admit that not all platforms are built for growing your art business. Sure, you can probably get away with plugging links to your patreon/etsy every time you share your work, but you're not going to get very much revenue from it. You'll be squeezing a square block into a triangular hole.

It's not that artists aren't welcome, it's just that the threadiverse (and reddit by extension) wasn't designed for the purposes you're describing, so you're not going to find the success you're looking for. There's nothing wrong with finding another platform that suits your needs better.

I'm sorry that you have such dark thoughts and negative feelings because of this :( there's a very loud, very vocal minority of women who believe men are inherently evil (and there's a large overlap with terfism too). But that's just the thing, they're a minority. Obviously much of what they say is based on truth- that's how they persuade others to think like them- but it's not worth listening to them because their intentions aren't in the right place. You're absolutely right that communities like that are bad for one's mental health, too!

Wishing you well, stranger.

Isn't the whole point of the fediverse to have different instances with different rules and cultures, and them all having the freedom to associate with (or to not associate with) whichever other instances they choose? Boohoo, an instance is using their freedoms in a way you aren't! Don't get so upset over what Beehaw chooses to do. People who agree with Beehaw will hang out there more and people who don't will move elsewhere. This is the natural way of things, isn't it?
