Disappointed at the lack of logic in the new censorship discussions here on mastodon. The argument goes something like :

If you disagree with me in any way, you're a fascist/white supremacist /etc.

If you support people's ability to voice their opinion that differs from mine, even if I can't prove that you actually disagree with my opinions, then you're supporting fascists.

The only right response to fascists is to implement an authoritarian view of mastodon, with a strong centralized governance to have no tolerance for opposing opinions.

I don't know much about gab, I don't like trolls (on the "I disagree with you" side or in the "disagreeing with me is FASCISM!!! 1!11" side), they are an annoying thing but are easy for individuals to block, but I thought the idea of mastodon was against this type of governance of social media, which is getting pretty close to an application of Mussolini's governing philosophy, whatever that was called.
