They’re choosing to attack the public square anyway, because they don’t want their shelters, they want the whole fucking world. And they can’t have it.

This is the best way of putting it, the whole thing about people complaining about defederation. Honestly fuck the people who are like this, who do you think you are asking for the whole world when you weren't entitled to it in the first place. You weren't entitled access to Facebook content from Reddit or vice versa. It's the same here.

I know that part of the reason people like that came her in the first place was because Mastodon and the OG fediverse services made that empty promise to them in the beginning (also saying a lot of shit about freedom and free speech) so those are the people that have been attracted. It really needs to be said loud and clear that this isn't the case or intention, and catering to people who want the world when they don't deserve it, is not the goal of the Fediverse or decentralization.
