Federated doesn't mean open.

No, but that was the whole marketing pitch for it. Now everyone is fine with censoring and rules as long as it aligns with their own beliefs.

That's the point of federation! Choosing who you want in your community.

That's fair, but then stop using the "federation is like email" propaganda.

People say that? How odd, that seems like a totally different world. I don't agree with that sentiment! One is a general purpose communications protocol, the other is a community. As with any community, one can pick and choose who they fraternize with.
