the author, Alex Gleason, is a notable bigot - he was "chief of technology" for Donald Trump's "truth.social", Gleason's spinster.xyz is the usual anti-trans / nazi-adjacent crossover special, and Soapbox is notorious on Mastodon for being almost entirely used by actual fascists.

blocking his bullshit from Threads is an incredibly rare Facebook W for its users, IMO - although really I wish Alex all the best working around whatever defederation FB is doing, truly he and Mark Zuckerberg are a great match.
