<p>One of the /facepalm moments you see in online communities is when a person or group attacks or insult a different culture or people, and when they fight back, they get offended and reports them (and calls the gang to mass report and exchange more words).</p><p>This is common in online games but also in the <a href="/tags/socialweb/" rel="tag">#SocialWeb</a>. All you can do is 🤦🏽 or 🤷🏽 or both.</p><p>Moral lesson: If you think you&#x27;re entitled to attack, bully, harass, or defame another person, people/Nation, culture, language, or country, then you shouldn&#x27;t complain if they return the favor.</p><p>As the <a href="/tags/goldenrule/" rel="tag">#GoldenRule</a> goes:</p><p>&gt; Treat others as one would like others to treat them</p><p>&gt; Do not treat others in ways that one would not like to be treated</p><p>&gt; What one wishes upon others, they wish upon themselves</p><p>Or, religious or philosophical:</p><p>&gt; Ma&#x27;at: Do to the doer to make him do.</p><p>&gt; Ma&#x27;at: That which you hate to be done to you, do not do to another.</p><p>&gt; Thales: Avoid doing what you would blame others for doing.</p><p>&gt; Isocrates: Do not do to others that which angers you when they do it to you.</p><p>&gt; Leviticus (book): You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against your kinsfolk.

<p>The other thing that the <a href="/tags/guppe/" rel="tag">#Guppe</a> incident showed us is that the <a href="/tags/fediverse/" rel="tag">#Fediverse</a> seriously needs the <a href="/tags/nomadic/" rel="tag">#Nomadic</a> protocol.</p><p>Let&#x27;s say the Fediverse understands the protocol: just move to a new domain, inform all instances &quot;this is the new domain, automatically re-subscribe please&quot;, done.

<p>I&#x27;m on fedi &amp; promote it cause it has the potential to fix the control over cultural attention by the wealthy and govts via mass media as documented by Chomsky. Based on what <a href="/tags/bluesky/" rel="tag">#bluesky</a> did last week and still refuses to acknowledge, it&#x27;s obvious they don&#x27;t share my goals. They can&#x27;t be allowed to be the future of social media, no matter how many times they claim to care about decentralization.
