If I'm looking for someone who is supposed to have an account on the #fediverse but I never see them, and I suspect it may be because of one instance blocking another instance, what is a good way to find out? Is there something like a public list saying "this instance blocks the following instances because of xyz"?

That's about how Swedish police is about to get increased mandate to stop and search people who look "foreign".
If you look like a "foreigner" then the idea is that police will get the right to stop you and search you and search through your mobile phone and whatever other personal belongings you have, looking for an excuse to deport you.

"Radical antiracists argue that the only way to fight this oppression is to build autonomous organisations with the power to dismantle existing social systems and build new ones. [...] race provides a means by which capitalism can more intensively exploit certain categories of worker – the enslaved, the indentured, colonised peasantries, migrant workers – as well as justify discarding peoples deemed superfluous [...]"
The bus stop outside of the Russian Embassy in Stockholm just changed name to "The Place of Free Ukraine".
