This is true, nothing is exactly equivalent, bad choice of words. It's not remotely equivalent either though. An equivalent scenario would be if immigrants showed up to the border, and were turned away, but also had a 1000 other places the could go within a few feet. And it applies to everyone making demands of server owners. Make an appeal for your wants. If they ignore it, find a server that fits better.
Yes it is equivalent, because you're telling your fellow humans to LEAVE instead of discuss things on a public forum. It's obviously weird and petty to tell people to leave.
And yet the mods aren't harassing me and I'm not harassing the mods. I'm discussing the benefits of connection with all the other federated users. And a very small number of people are petty enough to tell me to leave. "We don't discuss things 'round here. Giiit out!"
