This post is not only to try finding the best Mastodon instance/server but I also wanted to express about the Mastodon instances. Most of Mastodon servers are apparently harsh about other instances that include things they don’t like and are quite serious about getting those Internet points putting how the place isn’t welcome for “bigotry” and is for everyone and so diverse, and I wouldn’t have any problems with this if this wasn’t frequently used by people who will try to shut you if they disagree enough with you and will try to present themselves as so virtuous. You’d expect that the free side of the Internet would have people that value freedom and should let anything that isn’t a crime or something that prejudice the instance itself or whatever space they’re in but it seems this vision is getting far from the reality with time.

    I can’t really align with anyone these days because everyone is kinda dumb or downright evil. I just know that I’m a right guy and I like freedom, my spectrum would be more of classic liberalism than conservative. Also, they’ll actively try to look at something to try to “incriminate” you if you disagree in anything and they’ll just exclude you anyways if they can’t incriminate you, it’s not uncommon for a normal person to get banned from something like a game community cause you disagree with anything or some will straight up ban you for criticizing the game but the common aspect is always you getting accused of some ism. It’s a tool these days used by bullies who are too spoiled to accept anything other than praises; so you’re always expecting these “inclusive communities” to be a shit place full of bullies and 9 times out of 10 it is the case (the one time it isn’t is because you found some illegal group pretending to be from the inclusivity circle).

      I’d be super interested in seeing the “normal person” things you’ve said in a gaming community that got you banned.

        It occurs to me that people might still be removed from a community in which they “speak inclusively” if they’re saying exclusionary things in other places. People may decide they don’t want you in their social circles because of your actions in other circles. A Klan member or radical tankie who treats me nicely still doesn’t get to be my friend.
