literally nothing happened to incite the drama. the people on this instance used the fediverse in the way the software was designed for. the instance, which used to be not federated became federated like all the other ones… the drama was initiated prior to this even happening; just in anticipation of how bad it would be.

it was a bunch of spiteful, ignorant, small minded name calling provoked by fantasies of the people who stirred it up. they are really afraid of leftists because they know they are wrong and don’t enjoy the feeling of being shown up. so they wanted to preempt this by doing red baiting to stir up a moral panic because that usually works pretty well.
