> they do ban you merely if you're someone infamous enough.
Yeah, it's not decentralized if you can be banned, and banning someone they don't want to be associated with reeks of BigCorp Branding horseshit.
> That's only because the admin didn't think they could convince you into bending over to whatever they want.
We have gotten, in all of these years, very few complaints. I have had people accuse me of threatening to murder them. I don't think they want to convince me of anything, I think they want a bogeyman.
> you will get messages ordering you to run something else
You can get instance-blocked for a *user* on your site running the "wrong" client or even suggesting that you like that client.

> A lot of it actually was because Tumblr users came from a website also notorious for such a userbase, Livejournal, which was populated by that kind of internet garbage.
Yep; if you made a Venn diagram with three circles, the circle for "Had a LiveJournal account" encompasses the entirety of the intersection of the circle representing people that used the internet before Twitter existed and the circle containing people that had scars from cutting themselves.
> the infamous Final Fantasy House post was one such post.
Oh, shit, I remember that. "Jenny Nova".
> the infamous furry webcomic Jack
That one I do not remember but I have probably seen memes. -

Many such cases. -

It's a long read but it's a good read. So you had said,
> humans have this incessant need to drag everyone else into their personal bullshit. For whatever reason.
And then the guy starts to talk about this happening on Tumblr:
> “friends if you are reblogging things that are not about ferguson right now please queue them instead. please pay attention to things that are more important. it’s not the time to talk about fandoms or jokes it’s time to talk about injustices.”
And this is a big reason that Twitter went from "shitty" to "completely intolerable": Twitter decided it was Important and then they started pushing out people that didn't want to engage in whatever the news outlets or advertisers or activist mobs wanted them to engage in. And you've got dipshits like Zeynep Tufekci saying "Once you start sorting an array, you have an ontological problem" while demanding that some ethical board start controlling the process of software engineering because what if injustice. -

> I do think this is not entirely natural, that forces (whom/whatever they may be) are helping to drive this division.
Yeah, anything big happens and someone will try to coopt it. Like, he's got these observations about how people would act and you've got Bernays laying a lot of these things out and talking about how to steer them. Like Bernays is the reason for the stereotype of the chain-smoking feminist: he worked for the tobacco companies and women didn't typically smoke so half the market was closed, and he was tasked with getting them to start. His strategy was to get smoking associated with suffrage and it worked more or less and then became a self-perpetuating thing.
> At least we could generally agree to not attack someone not directly involved. We can’t even do that anymore. I could probably speculate forever on the why. Perhaps another day.
The ingroup is the ingroup, the outgroup is an undifferentiated mass of terrible people, so "Liberals get the bullet, too" turns into a communist slogan because although the liberals are also opposed to right-wing policies, they are not part of the communists' ingroup.
> I mean that’s kind of anywhere anymore right?
Yeah. Anywhere that happens and can be sort of centrally enforced, so as long as you don't build a rudder, no one can put their hands on the wheel and move the boat. This is why the mastodongs keep trying to build a centralized authority over the fediverse: they want a rudder. I'm sure most of them don't understand what happens when you build a rudder, but I'm also certain that some of them do.
> I am getting flashbacks to motherboard/mainboard and master/slave.
Same group, yeah, but a different tack: Tufekci was saying that if you learn to sort an array of integers (I'm not exaggerating) without injecting social justice into the curriculum, then you would be hacking out code for the Nazis to sort Jews in no time. (She went on to write some poorly conceived but widely disseminated article in Wired about how freedom of speech should be eliminated because sometimes people use it to advocate for positions she doesn't like, to no one's surprise.)
> The most descriptive and accurate words aren’t okay because racism. Not to mention the whole discussion was fucking retarded and gay. Probably fake too.
Yeah, that tactic actually goes back to the Ada Initiative, and if you read anything about them, even the stuff they wrote about themselves, you'll see where the problem came from.

> I mean, look at BlueSky.
I don't want to and you can't make me.¹
> Compare this to the fediverse, where all they can do is make some centralized blocklist
Yeah, that was the point I was making, right, there's no rudder: you can't steer fedi. So they make these private Discord servers (and if I'm lucky, what I have done will get FSE's domain blacklisted) and some opaque moderation council and declare servers good or evil or, like Are0h, they have a guy that makes up the declarations himself and is so effective at bait production and shouting down opposition that he can get a lot of people to fall in line with his personal declarations.
> FediSeer.com
Apparently FSE has been "censured". I don't remember receiving any communication of a reprimand or anything like that.
> that's when the fun really begins.
Indeed. People that wanna build walls around themselves tend to get punchy when they've finished the wall and then run out of people to wall off except others inside the wall.
¹ I agree with the point you are making but I cannot avoid expressing disdain for BlueSky as soon as I heard that you needed an invite to join their "decentralized" network. -
