Would banning threads users be a mod violation? (lemmy.world)

Can I make a rule for my community that threads users will be banned?
If .world doesn't defederate and threads users find their way into my community, I want to ban any that interact. Using anything meta related is a fundamental violation of the values I hold for using FOSS and the fediverse.
Would doing so violate the guidelines? I don't see anything suggesting it would, but want to check.

they can educate themselves, but they likely wont

recognising that doesnt make for a problematic philosophy, it makes for a realistic and practical one

crossing your arms and refusing to do anything about something you take issue with because 'i shouldnt have to >:(' is fine, and youre allowed to do it, but it still means that nothings going to be done about the thing you take issue with

sort of like how staunchly refusing to clean up after someone because they should just clean it themselves still means youre going to be wading through garbage, and refusing to accomodate the idiot driving in front of you because they should just drive normally still means your carll get totaled

If someone refuses to clean up after themselves I stop inviting them to my house.

and thats fine, and youre allowed to do it, and folks will remain uneducated
