These pieces are deeply authoritarian. Trying to take personal responsibility for command control of everyone's words and thoughts and actions must be taxing, especially when there isn't actually any mechanism for implementing such control.

Adolf Hitler himself could rise from the dead and start up a new instance running a trans furry port of mastodon or lemmy and there isn't much to do but block and move on. That's because it's libre software. If you want somewhere you can lobby and totally control, you don't want a decentralized libre platform like the fediverse, you want big tech.

It's always nice when authoritarians can paint whoever they disagree with as the great Satan to justify their authoritarianism. It only happens every single time.
