Found this post super informative as it relates to Mastodon, and thought Lemmy might also benefit from this perspective. I'm not sure I share his optimism, but his points seem sound to dampen some of the alarm bells over Meta joining the Fediverse.

The account is specifically for mocking people, thus the name. They take someone to direct their hate at and that translates to real harassment. It's built to hurt people, especially LGBT people. Groups built on "destroying the woke mind virus" are a scourge to humanity.
