I'm not saying that your instance needs to federate with her. But it would be good to have her as part of the Fediverse and say: look world, in the Fediverse, people can discuss things much better than on Twitter.

That's all I'm saying. I'm not even saying she is a good or bad person. I do think some of her statements are transphobic, but I also think she got radicalized because of the cultur war. I'm pretty sure in the Fediverse, once discussions are not heated up by algorithms, some people might become more moderate again.

Will this be the case for Rowling? Not necessarily. But she should still be in the Fediverse.

(Or at least at some point; counting her in this early may have been too provocative)

No?

Lets send an even better message, “Look world, we’re not the hateful scum who give platform to promote hate against people for how they were born”.

Let’s make a stand and say we’re not like every moral less corpo site. That we value humans over advertising dollars and never ending growth targets.

That's still possible without banning corporations completely from the Fediverse (which will not be possible anyways). It's just melancholic daydreaming.
