    Have you not seen the world? Everything, no matter how horrific, can always get infinitely worse.

    The PIF could buy it and ban gay people. Israel could buy it and persecute people against genocide. A rich right wing billionaire could buy it and force even more nazi memes upon the youth. They could make a monetized limit to how many servers one can join that is purposefully below any sane reasonable or normal level. They could make PMs pay per message.

    There are infinite ways it can get worse. Infinite.
