Sean TilleyI wrote our first Opinion piece in response to @gruber 's own perspectives on the negative reactions a good chunk of the #fediverse has towards Meta's impending presence here.

Is the goal of the Fediverse to be anti-corporate/anti-commercial, or to be pro-openness? I think openness is the answer.
Okay this is a classic bait and switch. At this point I can't believe he's well intentioned anymore.
You can't be pro-openness if you open yourself to a nefarious corporation. This isn't mom-and-pop's social network, trying to make a living. This is a corporation famous for buying things and then closing access.
He's basically saying: Why are the hens closing their house to the fox? So much for "openness"!
I'm willing to bet he got paid by Facebook to write this little piece.
wb x64@yuki2501 @deadsuperhero my goal is absolutely to be anti-corporate, because I'm anti-fascist and corporations (capitalist controlled organizations) are near-universally fascist: they'll happily use police and government violence to ensure that they profit maximally and forever. Unlimited corporate bribery is now legal in my country. Of course I'm against that. Anyone simping for corporations is telling on themselves.
