Most people here strongly seem like they wanted a more leftist Reddit.
Bluesky as well, but for X.
The concept of an entirely new ecosystem, free of authoritarian control, escapes people.
Of course we do not all have to federate with one another and share content, but to infiltrate and deny their existence entirely... is just another form of control. The accusation becomes revealed as a confession, now where have I heard that before...?
At some point the division becomes not Left vs. Right but extremist vs. non. Though I admit to lacking a fully matured understanding there as to whether that is justified or not, it's just that I am saying that this distinction exists.
