Something I do like about the federated moderation model is that it reminds me of how moderation works in most of the real life Black communities I'm in, from Nigeria to the UK to the US. A lot of behavior moderation is via "Come get your people." And "Whose mans is this?"

If I go to your birthday party and bring Obinna, knowing that Obi always gets drunk and fights somebody, that's on me.

If I say nonsense like, "That's just how Obi is!" I get "defederated."
