Opportunism - they just want to profit from the black out to push their own sub. As often, the conservative principles (or in this case rules) are not so important if you can gain any success by ignoring them.
Again? The real nutballs went off to form patriots.win, after they hilariously lost their preferred domain name in an act of negligence (and/or ignorance.) I could see them pulling the same trick again, forming up a Lemmy node that no one else would federate with a 10’ pole.
I don’t understand the mentality behind this. Is it just a case of “They’re doing a thing so we’ll do the opposite”? What exactly is the goal here?

That’s their gameplan most of the time.
That’s pretty much been the entire conservative movement’s MO for 30 years now.
Reactionary contrarianism is basically the conservative’s signature move.

I do, they’re fucking stupid
Couldn’t have said it better myself!

I don’t hate it. I’m sure some truly vile shit will get posted. Might be enough to get them banned off the site lol.

Good god I’ll be cringing all week from this
I think they hope all the other opinions will go away and they’ll get their favorite thing, an echo chamber.
I see you’re not familiar with American conservatives. This is how they operate. They’re just not always so open.
