Proves they know exactly what they're doing, and that they profit from it. They won't stop doing something profitable without being forced to by law.

    No. That's how selfish dipshits work.

    Doing things that you know are wrong just because they're aren't laws against them is an incredibly horrible attitude to have. It makes you an unethical piece of shit.

    Don't do that.

    It's fine to not like comments and commenters, but telling people they're not welcome is something else.

    The fediverse is already pretty homogenous, we could do with some dissenting opinion honestly.

    You don't have to welcome them, just don't tell people they're not welcome.

    Besides which, they didn't say they support profits over human welfare. They said that corporations will always maximise profits.

    Yes, they could have delivered this pearl of wisdom in a more digestible tone, but what they said is true nevertheless.

    Its a bit silly to think that a company would leave potential profits on the table.

    Being from Reddit is fine but I will absolutely be telling some people that they are not welcome here.

    How do you decide who is welcome?

    There is actually an established process for this. We have rules. If you think someone has contravened the rules you report them and then a moderator decides whether that person is in fact welcome.

    In fact, telling people they are not welcome is probably a contravention of the rules in many communities.
