I may be mistaken, but i think there's just no way to force a "global" moderation policy on the fediverse, because of the decentralized way it's constructed?
To force something like that would need to deviate from the open protocol, and people can always choose to not adopt those modifications.

As I've theorized before global moderation would take the form of whitelisting. They'll make an approved network and they'll extend that network to those that follow their blocklists and/or fedi social credit.
Twitter already has the reddit downvote, EU wanted that for fedi. Fedi social credit could be used to enforce global moderation policy by forcing instances to moderate in a certain way.
One could say it doesn't matter because these instances were gonna block us anyway so nobody has to bend the knee to them. But it does matter if someone wants to make an instance but all they know is "mastodon=fedi". You can see it in the coverage of fedi right now, Pleroma/misskey is not mentioned. Lack of knowledge will cut into people wanting to break out of the censorship spiral, which is what "they" want.
