The only fragrance I can imagine associated with that picture would be the smell of Donald's diapers...
The real issue is lack of community-run ISPs. We can self-host all we want, but we're still using the network paths of major providers when data is in transit.
More community run mesh networks. More community run fiber networks. Generally, just more community, less business.

You can tell the truth that everyone is just here for Miss Kitty.
They're all pretty nice, thanks/danke/gracias.

As someone who has managed a website: This is utter bullshit.
A website is someones private property and the organization is purely hierarchical in nature. It goes owner > admin > moderator > user and each one has control over the others.
The components to host a site (a server, hard drives, etc.) cost money. The connection to the internet costs money. The physical location costs money to exist in.
That private property still lives in a physical location and must abide by local laws. The laws differ based on the physical location, but there are laws they must abide by, all the same.
Hell, to even connect to a website I have to pass data over numerous different pieces of private property on the way to the site I want. Each step potentially cataloging the data I sent along the way, if the data is unencrypted. Even certificates which allow us to pass encrypted data to and from a site come from centralized groups called Certificate Authorities.
When someone bans you, what options do you even realistically have other than getting your own private property and spinning up your own site? Usually arguing about a ban goes badly.
I want some of whatever you're smoking. Websites are the complete opposite of open and community operated. Computers were never built for democracy.
No shit, they love that people are upset about it. That's why she did it. To exercise and exert power over the situation, to show they don't have to answer anyone's questions. They will do what they plan to do anyway.
When they do things like this they are expressing power and the intent is to get people upset but unable to do anything. They want to show us they can get away with it. Period.
