   President Joe Biden’s Threads account @potus is federating on the Fediverse!

   And I’m following him from atomicpoet.org!

   Wow! This is as monumental as Barack Obama joining Twitter! A truly historic day for the #Fediverse!

     And by joining #Threads, @potus has pretty much forced the hand of the Fediverse to federate with Threads.

     In the USA, if the Fediverse is going to be used for political organization, you need to receive and boost messages from @potus.

     I would prefer that @potus run his own Fediverse server but this is materially better than him not being on the Fediverse at all.

     @gigatexal @potus Then you might as well leave the Fediverse entirely.

     You can definitely block Threads, but it’s near impossible to block all servers that block Threads.

     @atomicpoet @potus if Biden wins then yay but if that handle is a Trump handle nope nope nope. I’ll buy or run my own node and defederate everything and anyone connected to his lying Putin loving ass

     @atomicpoet @potus I have no intention of following him on Threads. There are direct ways to communicate with politicians. This is peculiar logic you have used here.
