Wait... We're now de-federating because people have different political views? The way I see it, you shouldn't pick and choose who you want to talk to, to get answers. You need everyone's point of view for a balanced argument \ conversation.
To me this is just as bad as the Reddit corporates banning people for not fitting the narrative they want.

Lemmy to me, and for most people, is a way to communicate with free speech and little censorship. Otherwise, in the future, it will just be a bunch of people questioning and answering all agreeing with each-other. You need opposing sides for a balanced server.
