Could somebody just create a Matrix group/channel/room/space already?
The strength of the fediverse is that there can be a right wing fediverse, a left wing fediverse, a centralist fediverse, yada yada yada. Entire networks of different, unconnected instances can exist. There will probably be instances in between that act as bridges or for gathering stats.
It will be interesting to watch, but at least people will be able to join the instances with communities they like. The problem of course is that echo chambers are more likely to evolve, but it's not like that isn't the case right now.
And once we get instance bridged with the dark web, it could allow content from countries like China, North Korea, Iran, and other places that don't want information getting out.
Somebody's getting a taste of what it could be like to become the leader of Russia or the Russian army.. If this guy overthrows Putin and ends the war in Ukraine, it would be very interesting. He probably just wants to go on killing people in peace in some other country without getting interference from incompetent generals meddling in his operation. Putin messed that up.
They desperately need to support horizontal scaling. I'm sure there are enough nerds that could help them out there.
One human does not make a trend, but it is interesting. They'd have to test many more white supremacists to see if the effect will be same for the majority of test subjects.

Edit:
MDMA has, for instance, been used by the Taliban to channel connection to the divine during prayer chants, according to Nuwer.
Nuwer pointed out that Brendan's "seemingly spontaneous change" appears to be an exception to the norm.
Read the article guys. Won't work for everyone and could maybe even be used by White Supremacists to be more like the taliban.
If it hurts the IPO, I'm all for it. My data on reddit is worthless anyway...
Things aren't as bleak in Europe :)
