Give it enough time and every instance is going to defederate with everything that has even slightly opposing view points. We will have federated islands because people would rather silence opposing thought than discuss something like a reasonable human being.
If you want to discuss healthcare, taxes, etc, I'm all for it, but if you want to discuss stripping rights away from people or harming them, or you can't have a conversation without using dog whistles or coded language, then we have nothing to discuss.
Thank you. Denying people human rights and racism are not "differing opinions."
I can tolerate a lot but I won't tolerate intolerance. If your side is intolerance, bigotry, hatred, and hurting people, then yeah I'll defederate my instance pretty damn quick.
