nostr:npub12wfyg7nljr8h25apv0c2fvqd2l5dcmdymc9d3x7zdy2xtzztaysq7f8kwl I understand and respect your response, and, generally, I concede that you are correct: much of my rhetoric here connecting Mastodon proper or Mastodon collectively to little Fedi ghouls like nostr:npub1wylx8pn9nzgfjj27j88qy6e3zrdwfdp2erpduqyhgl5a6kl78gvsw9v6hc and the mastodon.art clique is tangential.
I would say, however, that it's not completely separate nor unrelated entirely. While individual prawns like Are0h, and terroristic, bad actor instances like .art, represent the extremes of Mastodon toxicity/hostility, this toxicity and hostility still exists and definitely isn't suppressed by Mastodon proper---be it Gagron with GmbH---or Mastodon as a collective entity.
The general attitude maintained by Mastodon-Fedi towards non-Mastodon Fedi is one exuding chauvinism, covetousness, and arrogance. There is definitely a dislike maintained by Mastodon Fedi towards non-Mastodon Fedi. Either happenstance or organized, there has sprung forth multiple and continued attempts by Mastodon Fedi to "otherize", disparage, and subvert the wider network in a sort of collectively conscious agenda to control, dictate, or otherwise silence the greater Fediverse. nostr:npub10ze7guqzj0kf8ayzzp605y2rwsczqny0afjyyt52fcl9nuttju2qahmjrr
