       @benroyce @abhayakara I wish there was a "we love Fox news" boomer server. not 4chan people but I really like the flag people. I'd hope you join me in advocating it not be blocked.

       @benroyce @abhayakara if they wouldn't harass people here, absolutely.I think there's a ton of Fox News viewers who would never ever tag a minority with mean shit, but go on and on about minorities ruining the country. I want them to follow their nephew here and see their nephew's minority friend being awesome.people always get better the less we live in bubbles.

       @wjmaggos @abhayakara naivete!william: bigots harassit is essential to what it means to be a bigot. their entire identity depends upon seeing someone else as inferior, and making a point of demonstrating that "inferiority" according to their dimwit sadismyou want to talk about a theoretical non harassing bigot?what?william, this entire line of thought is absurdity, almost comedicyou essentially do not understand what a bigot iswe will not unleash these turds onto the fediverse

       @wjmaggos @abhayakara "people always get better the less we live in bubbles"the point of the fediverse is not to serve as therapy for bigots!let them get better on their own, if they even can (big doubt), and keep their hateful ignorant shit away from us*that* is job #1you want to follow them to where the shitwits reside and vomit their hate and "cure" them? go for itnot here

       @wjmaggos @abhayakaraa group of servers that choose to federate with each otheron what criteria?any criteria they wantif you disagree with the current criteria, you may start your own fediverse of servers who think it's worth the effort to provide therapy for bigotsgo for itwhatever may be, may bewilliam:you seem to like quixotic questsyou think bigots can be reasoned withand you think you're going to redefine the fedi as bigot-tolerant for the purposes of their therapy

       @benroyce @abhayakara @jrm4I brought up Mr Davis and Mrs Phelps only to refute your argument that bigots can't change. Then I also tried to point out that not all bigots are harassers. I also argued that you too have views that others on the left wish they could never stumble upon here.Somehow you turned all that into me believing this place is for therapy for bigots. I do not.I believe this place can realize a marketplace of ideas vision but to do so, it must be as inclusive as possible.

       @wjmaggos @abhayakara @jrm4and it's possible we win the lotteryand it's possible for drunk drivers to not get in car accidentsbut we don't depend upon either possibility, because obviously they aren't what tends to happen1. bigots don't change. ok, a few do2. bigots harass. ok, a few don'tso you're making an assertion of *policy* based on the outliers, the fringe, the unexpectednonot going to happenyou simply have a very naive, quixotic approach to the problem of bigotry
