In general my stance is: Our communities (meaning actual communities not "everyone on the Internet who uses the same Kernel" or something) should be way more restrictive and explicit about what we accept and what not.

Your Mastodon server or forum or code forge or whatever _does not need to serve the world_. It should serve you and your community. Sure, there will be conflicts but we really need to make those political differences visible and explicit. Not to constantly fight but in order to know where who stands on what topic. We need to re-politicize tech and infrastructure.

The fact that your service comes with a whole bunch of rules is _good_. Don't let some dumbass libertarian guilt-trip you with "the Mastodon HOA again". Fuck that. Stand for something.
