    Granting fascists access to other fascists to become super fascist groups is the most dangerous part of social media.

    Given that most of the main social media platforms now are owned by capitalist fascist dickheads, its only going to get worse.

    If social networking like Lemmy or Mastodon were more mainstream, we could just name, shame and isolate these monsters. If they can't interact with people outside of their group without getting instanbanned or insta-defederated, then they'll either delve deeper and deeper into their nonsense, until their instances gets raided or they'll venture out of their alt-right safe-haven and get hit with reality and rejoin society.
