My primary argument is that they post hateful content and covid conspiracies and it is irresponsible to platform this by including it in our federation. Secondly we already got rid of lemmygrad. Thirdly, there's little to be lost in the defederation given the type of stuff being posted over there. Do as thou wilt
Aye and nays pls
Edit: putting the screencaps I posted below here for clarity
I should probably put a content warning so
CW: homophobia, transphobia, and just being a shithead.
Edit 2: let's try not to downvote people just saying nay. Unless they are making bad faith arguments we should respect their opinions even if we disagree.
Edit 3: Imma be real with y'all, this has been a real shitshow. We gotta work out some kinda single voting infrastructure because the ayes and Nays isn't efficient at all.
You're viewing a single thread.
Nay
I think Contextual Idiot said it best - 'Defederation should be the last option. After we have exhausted all other options. Because it’s the exchange of ideas, and exposure to other viewpoints, that helps reduce bigotry and hatred.'
That only works if the other party is open to the exchange of ideas and doesn't just double down instead.
Do we really need to wait until it becomes a major issue or can we just learn from all other platforms that lost control and take measures before that happens?
Ironic hearing that from you.
I know from experience that you personally are not at all open to exchanging ideas.
🤔
Case in point.
The same group that spam downvotes anybody they disagree with accusing others of not being open to the exchange of ideas... 👍
pret much
