they won’t be exposed to competing ideas
They wouldn’t be exposed to competing ideas if nobody defederates. They would subscribe to their own communities, where normal people would not participate, leaving only toxic ineffectual discussion.
Defederating is not ignoring the problem. It’s an active choice. It’s scooping the floaters out of the pool. It’s a clear message that bigotry is not tolerated. When they get bored of their hateful shit they can come and have manners and enjoy cat pictures with the rest of us.
I will decline being the counterpoint for this bullshit. It’s not a normal person’s responsibility to educate bigots.
