mybarkingdogs, @FediPact @fedipact #FediPact A Wikipedia link with citations as to what Facebook did in #Ethiopia. Their #genocide /war crime complicity isn't "just" #Myanmar, as horrific as being involved in one genocide is. They have more than one, by this point.
Everywhere Facebook goes, it's like the online, global version of RTLM but for local conflicts, wars, and similar. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_T%C3%A9l%C3%A9vision_Libre_des_Mille_Collines )

MediaActivist, Okay, I'll probably stop being angry and just mute the folks giving Meta "the benefit of the doubt" and all that shit, and accept the fact the reason they're being ignorant is because they're not anti-capitalists. That's the only explanation. My fault for assuming folks are into decentralisation because they're anti-capitalists when that's just a fantasy I use to reassure myself. #FediPact #Fediverse #Threads #Meta #FuckMeta #FuckFacebook #FuckZuck
FlockOfCats,
onepict, This thread right here shows just what federation with threads could bring. Not corruption to the Fediverse, but permission for bigots to be out and open about their views. To change the atmosphere so that marginalised folks don't feel safe.
We already have this issue on the Fediverse, why increase the firehouse of unvarnished poorly moderated hate?
We can create our atmosphere #fedipact
Sh4d0w_H34rt,
brawaru, We need an alternative to #Fedipact where admins that are willing to federate with #Threads promise to heavily moderate content coming from there to not let all the homophobic, transphobic, racist, reactionary and other awful content from there to go here.
Like, you already defederate other servers over that, why are you making an exception for Threads? Especially if they have a clear record of completely broken moderation.
samid, #fedipact #meta #fediverse #activate authorized fetch
are we falling in to darkness? Just read the news. All of that disinformation. The snark and hate that peaceful young activists get. Or a woman having an abortion. The way police is turning into a gang of thugs. And a lot of this is being organized on social media. We really need to make sure to block Meta/Threads as effectively as possible. This is one little place to connect with people in and not be hit with it. It saves lives. It saves the lives of minorites.

vantablack,
pootriarch, i evacuated my old instances last year and settled here, after the prior instances issued bezos-like statements of 'we'll wait and see, there's no reason to assume meta will approach fedi in bad faith'. i didn't feel like waiting so i picked through #FediPact, https://fedipact.online/ - which i mention now as it's great bedtime reading for the amazing cacophony of server names. i won't even name my favourites as you'll have your own
vantablack, oh wow
there's been a shitload more signatures on #fedipact since i last added em to the list
i should get around to updating that soon
vantablack, heh. i knew to expect some news on the #fedipact front today or soonish at least. lines up with that roadmap they released
vantablack, i still think it's really funny that mark zuckerberg might be personally aware of my existence because of #FediPact lmao
vantablack, wow i just realized it's rather appropriate that i started #FediPact during pride month huh lmao
vantablack, yeah i have a personal stake in the whole #FediPact thing
i think all of us do, really
i'd like to not see my digital home chewed up and spit out by a megacorporation
vantablack,
