I think the u/Kes put it really well. People on fediverse platforms are already staunchly opposed to big tech so they have no reason to leave for platform made by Meta of all people.
If they really wanted to they could already do that by setting up an instance and not publicly announcing it.
I personally believe that Meta never intended Threads to be support Activitypub and just chose it so they could do the bare minimum to comply with the EU digital markets act.
Honestly this is why the whole “Meta will kill the fediverse” thing people were saying never really convinced me. They just don’t seem to care, I mean it’s been a month and they still have no real plans to actually federate.
The morality of US actions can be debated about but 1k plus people died on 9/11 in a terrorist which obviously led to tensions running high. On the other hand, the Chinese government saw a peaceful protest and immediately mobilized its army on its own people.

I think the difference is Google is just linking you to this content. On the other hand ChatGPT is pretty confidently telling people all these things. Add the fact that a lot of people consider ChatGPT to be some sort of all-knowing entity and it’s a recipe for disaster.
This is a great (free) illustrated book about logical fallacies:
