    Of course. Look at the “network state” concept that the alt right tech bros love.

    Tiny nation states ruled by the elites, where laws and rights are set not by a wide ranging view of human rights, but by those in power. One of your only rights is the ability to leave. To where? Who knows, and surely nit with all your valuables going with you. No voting, not basic dignity, nothing else if the techo kings dont want to provide it. Corpo kings, contract as the only law.

    The end state of the above and fascism is the same. A ruling class that sets the rules, and a citizenry that has to abide by them, or else.

    Is it literal fascism? Who knows. Are you under the boot of a privileged class, at the full mercy of their whims just like monarchy or fascism? Yes indeed.







  • I think you misread my post. Im not defending fosstodon or carrotcypher, I was asking for more clarity about the issues.

    Reading up on him in the linked posts, he looks like a big piece of shit that shouldn’t be moderating a large mastodon instance. It’s clear he abuses his power there and on the 50 communities here on lemmy he mods to silence discussion that doesn’t align with his views.

    You opting to “not look into them” is the same stance as the Fosstodon admins, and honestly, not a good choice.
