baby its not xenophobic to defederate, calm down
No one said such a thing. Where did you get it from?
Go join a monolithic network if you are not interested in the features of the fediverse.
You have yet to show where your statement came from
They literally quoted that statement. Your lack of reading comprehension sounds like a you problem.
Read the original comment again. They didn't state what this person is claiming at all.
And yet I'm the one who can't read...
I went back and read it three times because I thought I was going crazy, it does say that - in charity you can say that he's not saying it's a xenophobic action but an action taken by xenophobes people, trivial distinction though.
Also though I will go a step further and say it is xenophobic because xeno is like in xenomorph, the alien wasn't from a different country the word means from a different origin so fits perfectly apt to describe the situation as it's the origin of their accounts. Though of course it's common usage does normally imply nationality.
A xenophobe is scared "of the others". Usually this means people from another country. But right here, it means the countless users that can't accept other people, simply because they are from another platform. Or better yet, thinking that those users are somehow inferrior because they come from that platform. And better yet, right now the proposition is to "block them all" for no reason whatsoever other than "we are scared of 'them'"
Do you see the comment from user “Maalus” immediately prior to the comment that you first replied to? That’s where it was said.
If you cannot see that comment it’d be interesting to understand why. Maybe you have blocked that user so can’t see his comment but you are seeing replies to it?
