I wish the Fediverse didn't ban users for legal political opinions.
One might get banned for opinions that are incompatible with certain instances. You can always open your own, and build a community of similar minded individuals. But never expect everyone to federate with you.
That's still a problem. It really doesn't make the community look good. I think that also creates an issue similar to Big Tech networks where you don't get opinions from all sides of arguments (unless you have many accounts on many instances).
when one side is "Queer people should be hunted down and killed" or "women are property" they don't get a seat at the table of people who aren't complete monsters.
