Meta just announced that they are trying to integrate Threads with ActivityPub (Mastodon, Lemmy, etc.). We need to defederate them if we want to avoid them pushing their crap into fediverse.

If you're a server admin, please defederate Meta's domain "threads.net"

If you don't run your own server, please ask your server admin to defederate "threads.net".

Numerous actual popular accounts and news sources have been suspended. It was major news in the Arabic-speaking world in October. Meta even apologized for auto-translating Palestinian as “terrorist.”

Hate to say it but that's a fail on producing a reliable source.

You don't have to humor the troll. We all have the internet we are all free to independently verify.

You know, you have access to search engines too. You don't need to be lazy and treat the rest of the Internet as your personal stenographer/research assistant.

Fucking HELL, despite how increasingly easy it is to find information, it cannot keep pace with just how utterly fucking lazy people are getting.

Fuck off. You were asked for reliable sources - a very reasonable request these days, and you replied with none. I was right to call you out on that.

Only if you tried searching first and didn't find anything. If it's on the first page of Google if you just try searching the claim, then other people shouldn't need to link it for you.

You know you’re responding to a different user right?

The irony is amazing!

Then the fuck off goes double for them and triple for you.

I see you’re a certified bad ass.

Ill leave you be, sir.

No, just no. If you want strangers to take what you say seriously then you should show the simplest respect by supporting your claims with the reason(s) you have them. Laziness is flapping your mouth off and expecting to not have to back it up.
