They're a multinational corporation, they don't need us to host their shit for you to be able to read a goddamn article and learn something.
If you don't yet understand that they're evil that's on you.
What if some of us don't care if they're evil?
Then you're evil. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Go ahead, be evil. It is certainly your prerogative.
Edit: just look at how many votes "But what if some of us don't care if they're evil?" got. Like, what a wild-ass bullshit thing to say. This thread is definitely being astroturfed.
Thanks, it is my prerogative.
This is the point of the freedom of federated communities: we can read whatever the fuck we want from wherever the fuck we want without having authoritarian censor-heavy limp-wrist adult-baby moderators and corporate fascists determining what we are allowed to read or affiliate with.
The freedom to read both sides and control what I want to interact with on my own will, and make my own decisions is why I'm fucking here. I don't want people like you making decisions for me, go fuck yourself.
Thanks for noticing I'm evil. I'll go make a nice blood sacrifice to my effigy of Satan by eating another baby.
Right, so nobody's stopping you from joining threads, or making your own instance. You can call it evil.villain. Why don't you?
So when they steamroll this place so hard you only get their side of the story, what then?
I promise you nothing is going to get steamrolled, you are simply being very ignorant.
In fact, I will @ you with a reminder in 30 days as a reply to this message of how mundane and routine everything is to prove you are wrong.
Well fucking said.
