    You’re describing the reasoning behind the decision. The fact that this is a consequence of that decision remains the same.

      I don’t agree. I think it’s disingenuous to isolate the decision from the context as if it were made unprompted. it comes across as if you are blaming the admins for something you don’t like - if that’s not your intent, then what is ?

        There’s nothing in my comment to suggest that, and I think you’re projecting here.

        I think many unintended consequences occurred from the defederation, and this situation is an excellent tangible example of that.

          I don’t think it was unintended in the sense that the admins didn’t expect these consequences. At least to me, on their posts they seem very aware that what they’re doing is very damaging, but they were stuck with choosing between the lesser of two evils, and they choose what was going to keep them more sane for now.
