Gregory's Server@PCOWandre @stux This isn't about blanket open communication. It is about allowing a corporation that allowed absolute vitriol to proliferate their platform in the name of "communication" and free speech. Do you have an active Facebook account? Does anyone who is participating in this narrative have an active Facebook account? And if you don't, why is it that you don't?

 @PCOWandre @stux I have not seen the hate here. I have witnessed the deep racism, bigotry, antisemitism, and manipulation on Facebook and Twitter. The paid trolls and dark money flows everywhere unchecked on those platforms. Our elected officials feel comfortable participating in all of that. I don't want that here. Scorpion and the Frog. Corporations don't deserve chances. People do. |
@noondlyt @stux Honestly? I see more roaring vitriol in the Fediverse than just about anywhere else. Since the demise of Twitter, this place has been filling up with hate.
Meta has a chance to do something new. They have a chance to either earn a place or be driven out. Blocking/defed is a simple operation that can be done any time in the future if they prove to be bad neighbours.
(disclosure: I have a FB account. Where else am I going to find cheap antique furniture in these parts?)
