Welcome to allykotetsu.com! The website of radical queer activist Ally Kotetsu. Here you'll find my blog, along with other stuff that I do. Check out the About page to learn more!
What is the fediverse? Most people would say that it's just social media, a place where people can run microblogging instances that all federate with each other, and where people can post cat videos, selfies, and "the weekend." But to radqueers, paraphiles, and MAPs, it's community.
Obviously I've posted about this a lot on the fediverse recently. I'm not trying to rub salt in the wound, but I wanted to make a post about it on my main blog in order to compile all of my arguments and to hopefully make a statement that the radqueer community at large can understand and agree with. What am I talking about? The Streisand Effect and how it relates to the way antis target our communities.
It's not usual for me to post more than once a month, but someone on my org's Tumblr sent an anonymous ask wanting to know what it was like being doxxed and how it's affected my life, and it didn't seem appropriate to post there so I figured I'd post it here, since it seemed interesting to write about and it could provide a utility to those in the same situation.
