That's more an argument against sharing anything online, because people will always be able to gather info and share it out of band if they are determined. At least the Fediverse has some tools to automate over and commercial social network.

Yes, and that is where self-controlled tools change things. Instead of hoping some third-party for-profit tool who continouously demonstrated they will not take care of oppressed populations, we have the possibility to make what we want, not accept the status quo, secure ourselves. And now people want us to blindly connect to those who are funneling hate in the name of "connectivity". It only shows how individualistic and privileged those people are: as long as something doesn't affect them they don't even see that there is a problem. Not totally new coming from SV white males, but still always the same.
