About

moth.zone is an ActivityPub instance. They appear to be friendly to low-key racism of the "reverse discrimination" ilk, in that their apparent admin (root@moth.zone) implied that another instance, ubuntu.buzz, was blocking anyone simply for being too white (rather than, as seems more likely, for being racist) -- see Figure 1.

Additional confidential reporting suggests that this is part of a consistent pattern of behavior -- generally conversing casually with racists and mocking any Black-run instances that don't block them.
