Do you think the fediverse has become a save space for radicals? (lemmy.ml)

The alt social media are a good place to run away from algorithms and explicit mass manipulation from other big tech, be more free, independent, and spread ideas, but I also think that the fediverse is being filling with people with radical political ideologies, some kicked out of traditional social platforms for this same reason. I'm not saying that we can't have discussions, but I think that many people are making their own echo Chambers in the fediverse.

the gpl was created by richard stallman, a well known nazi, because of that it tends to attract like-minded people

Okay I know people think it's below the belt very frequently, and I understand the desire to give people reasonable doubt. No one wants these allegations levied on them. So we expect a lot of evidence before such an accusation. I have listened to recordings of Richard talking about pedophilia I will not be able to produce for you here. However if you go to stallman.org go to the search bar and type in pedophilia go and read his writings. Go and read the redacted reports from the MIT public mailing list.

Mind you I'm not saying he abused children but he certainly has tried in the past to normalize sexual advances to minors.

This was a bit out of pocket though I was trying to be edgy. Another thing I would like to say is that pedophiles are not morally bankrupt by virtue of being pedophiles. They are morally at fault when they normalize touching children, they are morally at fault when they assault children.

Sorry this got a lot darker than it had to.
