Please Consider Defederating from rammy.site - eviltoast

Dear Admins of the Lemmy.world instance I am asking that you please consider defederating from the rammy.site instance as soon as possible as the admin is no where to be found and it has been taken over by right wing posters posting hateful messages. There are also other people posting large amounts of spam and creating empty communities. What was once a small hobby run general purpose instance has been turned over and made into a festering right wing hate filled breeding ground by the people from exploding-heads. The only recoarse left it seems is to defederate to prevent them from spreading hate to other instances.

PS. I already sent this message to multiple admins here, sorry about that I just felt it was urgent to make sure the message was sent before these people cause more damage.

      You don’t seem to understand why I’m pushing defederation, do you, or you agree with those right-wing nazis over there, if it’s the second one why don’t you just go join them then, your instance is federated with both rammy and their home community exploding-heads.

      To the more level headed people out there I understand that defederation is a very extreme measure not to be taken lightly, I also understand that some instances don’t defederate from political instances (which is why I did not and will not reach out to lemm.ee or any other instances that federate with EH about this issue) this is however an extreme circumstance as an instance is unmoderated and currently being overrun by members from an instance that this current one (both .world and .ca) have defederated and they are using rammy as a proxy to push their agenda. Maybe some of you may agree with what they are saying but the instance operators and majority of their users don’t and thus it is up to them to defederate.

      Since Rammy’s admin is either unavailible or doesn’t care about his communities anymore (shown by how it’s un-moderated) defederation is the best option moving forward to maintain a healthy instance and avoid potential legal and security issues that might arrive from being connected to an unmaintained instance.
