That makes no sense.

Any sensible person would want to avoid/run from trouble, not move towards it.
By continuing to interact with Thread users you're enabling those users to feel justified in not wanting to leave.

This system is similar to what creates regimes like the CCP or North Korea to enforce their citizens to obey their rule otherwise their connections to their family and friends are at risk.

to break this system people must run (brain drain), by staying you enable those at the top to threaten others close to you to listen to them. It's a cyclic toxic structure.

People do not have to leave Threads. They should, but they don't have to. No harm in interacting with them. In fact, such interaction will make them aware of the alternatives.

I have this radical idea that Threads users are people too.
