Yes. They say:

> I'd like to also thank fediblock for never fact-checking anything ever

and link to a list of all instances who have blocked them for any reason whatsoever. My instance is on that list, as though I blocked them because of fediblock. In reality, it’s impossible for them to know why someone blocked them without doing a survey or something.

>I'd like to also thank fediblock for never fact-checking anything ever

The rest of the sentence is important to the meaning of the sentence, though...?

"giving the false impression that things that FSE has never permitted were allowed." with a link to a claim that they allow loli.

(For what it is worth, I've blocked them as well, but I still didn't read this paragraph as them "whining about a cabal")

[kstrauser]

Maybe, but they’re still linking to my server (and a bunch of others) as evidence that they’re widely blocked due to fediblock, and not because of individual servers blocking them for bad behavior. I personally couldn’t care less what fediblock said about them. It was nothing whatsoever to do with why I blocked them.

>as evidence that they’re widely blocked due to fediblock

It seems like you're laser-focused on the fact that they link to fediblock instead of the actual words of the sentence.

Their complaint is not about being blocked, they make that clear in the part of the sentence you decided not to quote. They apparently just don't want the reason in the "Reason" column to be a lie.

It's probably a good bet to just read the whole sentence they wrote.

"I understand people on "gated community" instances not wanting to deal with it [...] but I would prefer if they did not lie about their reasons or about me personally."

They (seemingly) just don't want pedos thinking it's okay to post on there. Which is a good thing. So, if you're filling out a reason, just put "massive assholes" or whatever instead something untruthful.
