It's funny to me how people who call themselves anti-authoritarian are some of the most eager to shut out dissenting voices
- It makes sense once you realize that “authoritarian” is just a pejorative for “bad person I don’t like” - outside of that it means absolutely nothing

I'm absolutely convinced beehaw is a :fedposting: echo chamber, trying to corral redditors into another bubble before they get any wild ideas of their own
- If that's true, they're making fairly dumb decisions when they defederate from liberal-leaning instances full of new arrivals from reddit.

Lol, why would they defederate from lemmy.world? That's just a wannabe Reddit. This does make Lemmy more tolerable, since I don't have to see posts from those losers anymore.

I get that the Lemmy stuff is sort of relevant to us but I do wish it was in its own channel that I could unsubscribe from.
Defederating this defederating that unless defederating means removal of feds (possibly by defenestrating) then I really do not care.

  :party-sicko:
- I started a megathread in the dunk tank to contain posts there as best I can.

Yeah the beehaw people just seem completely incompetent in every way. They're legit like "these instances are too popular so we don't want to moderate it" like damn have you heard adding another couple of moderators?
Shits so silly
- like damn have you heard adding another couple of moderators?
  but i wanna control everything :powercry-2: those evil red fash tankies are subverting me

Beehaw can be completely defederated if they want, but they were claiming to only block because of "hate speech". Hopefully they cut the crap and just be honest about why
- Liberals will just keep lying

I wonder how long until they defederate with lemmy.ml, because you just know it's coming. They don't like the "tankie" devs and it's not even the largest instance any more (and apparently they don't even care about defederating from large instances given this post), so there's no way they don't at some point
- they have posted discussions about it, but at this point they are not so they can 1) keep access to all the comunities that are their, and 2) easy access to the devs and keep on not their bad side.

It's true that those two instances do not require a signup statement as "proof of human" but they are pretty tame lib instances with some good communities IMO. Beehaw is of course allowed to defederate with whomever they want but it's fucking lol.

Essentially, they don’t like their open registration policy and the increase in users… I have never seen such an argument before but lol.
When the entire purpose of the operation is to control narrative and dictate content, I can see how Beehaw runs into problems when all their shit gets smacked with downvotes as soon as its posted.
Lots of "What's up with all the Tankies?!" posts that are getting eviscerated in the comments.
