It became the only reliable source of information I had. People posted links with a minimal amount of commentary, picking and choosing the best content from other social media networks. They’re not doing it to “build a brand” because that’s not a thing in the Fediverse. It’s too disjointed to be a place to build a newsletter subscription base.

I know you probably didn't mean this, but I don't think accessibility barriers are good. Diversity of thought is strength and bad comments naturally sink to the bottom.

After seeing how many terrorist ideologies have been allowed to thrive by claiming First Amendment protection since 2016.

No.

"Diversity of thought" my ass. I'm sure your wonderfully-diverse thoughts are just what all of us need to hear, but if they can't pass muster under human moderation, they're not worth platforming.

Pretending these comments only come from "stupid" people is abelist and provably false.

I am defending those with barriers, not fascists.
