@Pat Someone with an axe to grind? Someone who can't stand to be held accountable to the rules, so they'd prefer to burn it all to the ground? Someone who prefers ideology over facts and truth? Someone who prefers tribalism to facts and truth?
I was thinking more along the lines of someone who just spent $44B to buy a sieve.
@Pat @Romaq Snow (the asshole stirring up this drama) was doing this before Musk bought Twitter, and some of the admins I've seen have a beef with Freemo have been having it since the days when Gab joined --- and subsequently left --- the Fediverse.
In short, this is stuff that predates the current influx of users by some time. As I have said, my hope is that this sort of drama will have less impact over time as more people come in. Whether that actually happens remains to be seen.
@mathlover @Pat @Romaq
Yep. Old Fediverse drama that's coming up again now that Mastodon is gaining popularity.
Had the influx not occurred - it probably wouldn't happen again so soon.
My interpretation of the data is that this was kicked off earlier than the current #TwitterMigration, and the influx has only inflamed the petty hate and jealously of the Antifa crowd dancing to the tunes called by the actual Nazi who started this after being kicked from qoto.org. So it's a fire that's been burning, and throwing some good ol' LOX onto it didn't help.
