I can't believe it has come to this.
If you are using your FOSS projects to limit choice and drive your political agenda, you are no more an agent of freedom than self indulgent corporations who use software to drive their commercial agendas. For instance, you are no different than Microsoft.
The freedom in free software isn't freedom to be told what to do, what to believe, what opinions to hold, and who to talk to.
Let the Fediverse be free and open to everyone.
@lesbianhacker @mollym I don’t think it’s a good idea to mix these problems. Nazis have to be dealt with, but not by limiting the freedom of the tools we all use. The tools should allow the user to be in control. Not the other way around.
I don't need you to protect me. I don't want you limiting my freedom because you believe it is for my own benefit. I can decide that for myself. My body! My choice!

No freedom for nazis or nazi collaborators.
It's not "just as bad", because it's driven by a need to protect people, not out of a desire to make more money. Entirely different.
