Depends on whether you want to tell people the Fediverse has two halves.

Almost nobody does, because almost everybody is politically aligned with one half or the other. But that's why nobody really understands the Fediverse, because the way the Fediverse actually functions would not be possible without both halves.
It's funny though because the story is SO INTERESTING, it should be like catnip for journos... Here you've got this happy little social network, but then it turns out it has an "evil twin", but then in fact it's not really that evil and both networks actually depend on each other.

It's like the Morlock and the Eloi... particularly when you consider the fact that the Eloi had become something that couldn't survive on their own in the wild, and so the Morlock were basically farming them.
