Thats one perspective, sure, and I am weird but I'm pretty ok with that. But anyway, I don't think prohibition works for ideas and people that act like this tend to not be very happy people. It is worth checking in sometimes.

Whilst I do believe in deplatforming, I wouldn't call fediverse comment sections a platform.

Checking in on concerning individuals and helping them realise that they're being unkind, is an important but exhausting role in society - and it's good if mods aren't the only ones doing it!

Parts of the fediverse are small enough of a community that you can give a helping hand to these people and break them out of their reactionary/propaganda bubbles.

You're helping to keep the community kind - thank you for doing it
