    Yes, I know… But there’s no need for Meta to extinguish Mastodon if we do it ourselves?

        This doesn’t seem applicable - how is meta being intolerant (or the people federating with meta)? Banning instances because they didn’t ban a third party instance isn’t following the paradox of tolerance.

        Sorry if I’m missing something, are you saying meta should be banned because they have bad moderation, tons of bigots, or something like that?

          i am saying they should be banned because their ultimate goal is to Embrace, extend and exterminate and if you are going to tolerate it, you’ll lose

              That’s just arguing that companies shouldn’t be allowed on decentralized networks like the internet,

              no, that’s not, you should read better

              which IMO isn’t realistic

              oh wait, you didn’t read wrong, you tried to misinterpret what i said on purpose, right?

                1. The Internet itself is federated and a mix of nonprofits, governments, and tons of corporations

                2. Rude

                3. Seethe, cope, etc. lol

        You seem to be stretching the definition of the “paradox of tolerance” in new and amazing ways. How exactly does the “paradox of tolerance” relate to defederating from instances that haven’t explicitly blocked Threads?

          it applies to federation of single units in same way as it applies to single unit. if we decide this is a direction we want to take, then everyone has to think about which side of the imaginary barricade they want to stand on.
