Does anyone have a screen grab where fashy gab fuckheads talk about setting up alts?
Lots of my recent follows are a day old, often contain content indicative of their agenda, and have 10s or 100s of follows or followers on servers my instance blocks. There's some attempted trolling going on now that gab is being de-federated.
Why are you blocking entire instances lol. Also I'm on gab and havnt see any talk of that.

A better question is:
Why are you on gab?
I left FB after what they did with france, working with the government to doxx people for thought crimes... tried a few "FB/Twitter alternatives" and gab was the only one where my posts actually got engagement... I like their libertarian take on things, i'm treated like an adult.
Yeah there's a few weirdos on here but its easy to unfollow/mute ppl so
@DavidBond @I_Will_Wobble
Yeah, every time I'd visit gab the main feed would have something anti-Semitic/racist every couple of posts. To visit that site and think, "yeah, this is for me. Sign me up," makes that person complicit with those ideas.
And to champion corporations to do whatever they want (like with the East India Company) has been demonstrably devastating.
Corporatism leads to fascism. The self identified libertarians, Koch bros, are literally ok with nazis.
I'm on there almost daily, and I don't really see much of that, likely because I don't follow people who post that kinda thing. I've also blocked a few dozen people over the past year.
I'm not championing corporations, I'm just being pro-choice when it comes to what we can read/see on the net. I don't like the idea of a giant corporation deciding for me what I can see or read, and I think the relationship between you and your followers should be between you and your followers, not regulated by some weird middle man who will decide for both of you.
This idea that if bad people use a technology/platform everyone else who uses it is somehow guilty or complicit in those bad things is a little silly.
You know Chrome & Firefox are used to visit nazi/isis websites, am I also somehow "ok" with those groups now because I use those to browse the web?
Btw i'm not even commenting on your post using gab, but qoto.org... lots of gabaphobes blocked the entire instance out of some weird fear that everyone who used it was a boogie man haha
