@davey_cakes mainly I just wanted to indicate that by explicitly saying that transpobia and racism is now allowed, #fedipact is now the same level of concern that Isolate Gab was
-
@cwebber forgive me for being an idiot, but it seems like this is a small step in the right direction?
From what I’ve seen, the *current* Meta stance is to allow alt-right views and shadowban left-leaning accounts. The other thing he mentioned was removal of foreign intelligence bots, which from what I’ve seen mainly target antifascist posts (yuumei art’s protest pieces come to mind).
Is there anything I’m missing? -
@slink Did you actually watch the same video where he said that the election of Trump is an indicator that it's time to prioritize allowing more right-leaning speech and that they're going to remove restrictions on transphobic and racist content?
Because that's the video *I* watched. Which one did you watch? https://www.facebook.com/zuck/videos/1525382954801931/

@cwebber this looks like preemptive compliance with Project 2025, section 28 on FCC: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/24088042-project-2025s-mandate-for-leadership-the-conservative-promise/
In particular, the move to TX looks like a reason to cozy up to TX HB 20 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_House_Bill_20), as suggested on p849.

@cwebber How do you block Threads on here?

One way (I don't know if it is the best), is to find a Threads user's profile page and "Block domain."

@cwebber Indeed.
See @jat23's Closing the Door to Remain Open: The Politics of Openness and the Practices of Strategic Closure in the Fediverse and the "Why the Anti-Meta Fedi Pact is good strategy for people who want the fediverse to be an alternative to surveillance capitalism" section of Should the Fediverse welcome its new surveillance-capitalism overlords? Opinions differ! for more about what's been done so far.
