There is a special circle of hell for lackeys who legitimise surveillance capitalists like Facebook and aid their efforts to take over (or at least sabotage) emergent non-corporate spaces like the fediverse when they should be protected from them at all costs. Those who give them every benefit of the doubt and temper all historic evidence of wrongdoing with anecdotes of the very good people they know who work there in good faith. You know who you are and exactly what you’re doing. Shame on you.
@aral Watching Facebook vs Fediverse is like watching a teen slasher film, where the protagonists _know_ who the killer is and they still invite him in the house because he hasn't killed any of them yet.
And you're just standing there, yelling at the screen, because you saw them watching him murder everyone else in the neighborhood.
