Are you honestly shocked? They're trying to get in while Threads is overwhelmed by new signups. Hopefully Meta will do the right thing and kick them off but they probably won't.

The big corps have always had a right wing bias. The corps bend over backwards to cator to these asshats while shitting all over the left.

There's a reason this stuff thrives on places like Facebook and will continue to do so. They also want a platform that has the widest reach.

It's why they want to be in the big sites instead of making their own because they want the rest of us to see their nonsense. There may not end up being a big hate presence on fedi stuff because any right wing instances will be broadly blacklisted either by the instances or by the users.

Broadly and quickly! The message rapidly goes out and in a matter of hours, if not minutes, the instance is defederated.
