Would you support defederating from every instance that doesn’t explicitly support Taco Tuesday? (sh.itjust.works)

It can be OG soft bois or Midwestern taco night Old El Paso kits. Or even fish tacos. But if you’re against tacos you’re against freedom and deserve to be ignored.

People calling out for defederation don't understand the value of being exposed to uncomfortable opinions.

Being against taco Tuesday is no mere "uncomfortable opinion" it's an unconscionable travesty that denies the basic dignity of humankind! Allowing such reprehensible viewpoints to spread will only cause some portion of the younger, more impressionable user base to embrace the views out of a desire to contrast to their IRL peers and an inability to distinguish the fallacious world view behind the rhetoric.

Ah yes the value of being exposed to nuggets of wisdom like "members of the LGBTQIA+ community should be murdered". Couldn't fathom not having that in my life.

Even on the instance you're talking about nobody said that, but okay. Interesting trend to put violent extremist words into people's mouths and then call them violent extremists.

How else do you get your hourly dose of self-righteous outrage?
