@bob If an instance is going to silence/block someone for their political posts, it should make that information public so people can use it when deciding whether to join that server. For people in #Ireland, for example, it is very relevant information to know if someone is silenced by mastodon.ie for their posts opposing #Israel’s #genocide of the #Palestinian people in #Gaza, should it turn out to be the case. Assuming that wouldn’t sit well with a lot of Irish folks.
