Whatever „batty“ means.
Your argument is falsely equating our „we dont accept authoritarian systems here“ to „we dont accept people“ which is thinly veiled gaslighting.
No, the issue is “we don’t accept people from facebook”. It doesn’t matter what their opinion is - facebook bad.
facebook bad.
The company that has been complicit with multiple ethnic cleansing campaigns, election manipulation schemes, and attempted to suppress their own research showing that their platform harms children? Yeah. They’re pretty ethically bankrupt and anyone with something resembling scruples should want nothing to do with them. The users are welcome to join an existing instance or create their own. The company needs to be blocked.
Brother, it’s not the people. It’s the corporation. If the people want to join a non Meta instance they would be welcomed with open arms
Okay, but they want to join a meta instance. That’s what they know. Instantly defederating away from them “because corporation” is simply fearmongering in a system that’s resistant to “bad corp” taking over.
You‘re doing it again. Please stop putting words in my mouth.
We dont accept facebook here, period.
Which is the exact same thing I said - you don’t care about the people, you just go “facebook bad” and ban it
Yeah, no. The issue is we don’t want corpos using the EEE standard as they have with mostly everything internet wise.
If people want to use Lemmy, make a fucking account, join an instance, and WOW look at that, we grew!
Who is “we”? This is a slippery slope talking point and nothing more. Fediverse was made with redundancy in mind, so nobodys instance is the “main” one by design. Being scared of someone comming in and being part of the various communities doesn’t mean that the fediverse would somehow get absorbed, destroyed or whatever have you.
What are you gaining by astroturfing here? Are you being paid by the hour, or just being used as a free bootlicker?
