Uh...the "badge of honor" would have been quitting back during api-gate and not looking back. Getting banned now just means one participated after that time, providing spez with traffic and value, and helped normalize the behaviour that is only just now a bridge too far.
Today, a ban is the "conciliatory prize of not thinking ahead".

3rd party apps closing down I can see from a business point. Makes good business sense. Keep everyone on your shitty app and monetize it. I wasn't for it but understood the greedy fucks behind it.
Now it's just different. Banned for going against Nazis, just means they are in bed with Nazis. That's the last straw.

Not understanding how greed and control are different manifestations of fascism is still on you. Corporations always align with fascists because a corporation is essentially a small kingdom where a handful of Lords make all the decisions for the peasants (workers/consumers).
Plenty of us saw where this was headed because of the API drama.

Fascism is always the best business decision. This is the inevitable result of capitalism. The institutions on a good decade are strong and resilient. Oligarchy, yes, but still a more or less free society.
Eventually though, there will be a series of crisis in succession that causes the establishment to weaken just enough for a strongman to slip in and take the reigns. In the 20th century it was the fallout from WW1 and the Great Depression. In our time it was COVID and the Ukraine + Israeli wars (and to some extent, 2008 housing crisis)
One key part of fascism is that it is almost paradoxically
a) A populist-driven ideology, which means it appeals to the lowest common denominator
b) An elitist-driven ideology, which means it idolizes and puts value in the elites of a society
What ends up happening is the state picks and chooses elite groups of people who end up running the show. So for example, if you are Zuckerberg or Musk or Bezos.. you know that if you play nice with Trump that he will reward you and you will have certain advantages by having a friend in an authoritarian government. You also know that if you don't play nice with Trump, he will try and hurt you using both legal and illegal mechanisms.
Therefore, the best investment you could make is aligning yourself with the fascist state.
This was always going to happen. Sort of humans eventually will catch a cold or develop cancer. The immune system on a good day is strong enough to repel these types of problems. But eventually, you will be under some stress for one reason or another and your immune system is not enough to stop the inevitable cold or what have you.

Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power.
