  • When will people learn that nothing Trump says means anything, that no agreement, no contract, no law will even stand the next hour if he doesn’t feel like it. His signature is literally not worth the ink on the paper, and I mean literally.

    It’s ridiculous anyone even still tries to reach binding agreements with him or reports his utterances as meaningful. The moment the experts even begin discussions about the consequences of his latest “decision” he’s already typing a “truth” stating the polar opposite.

    This is a complete clownshow in which the only currencies are hard power, economic might and strong alliances.

    With this in mind this action and the discussion raise many questions. Defederation is a broad and extreme measure, affecting many users and the structure of the fediverse as a whole. When larger instances are involved this is of interest to everyone.

    The thin explanation isn’t satisfying anyone’s curiosity and let’s the decision look questionable at best.

    I’m no fan of db0, but I am for open discourse. Just going against the “values” doesn’t feel like a good reason for an instance ban. This should be explained in more detail with examples.
