> If a large enough group of admins decides they are very much against this, they will not only block Threads, but block anyone who does not block Threads.

I don't think this is true. The instance my group is using isn't participating in any of the fediblocking/blocklists stuff, and hasn't been blocked by it.

They will be if one of the fediblock proponents decides to report you. This is not an automated process at this time. It's decided by a cabal on a private Discord, really.
Lot of consternation over being blocked by a bunch of losers you don't want to talk to anyway.
It's really about the non-losers who you may want to talk to that get swept up as collateral damage
What the hell? I don't use the fediverse but that sounds extremely bad.
