I recommend Defederating from Rammy.site - eviltoast

Rammy.site has been overrun by bigots from exploding-heads they are posting transphobic content accusing LGBT people of being groomers and also posting climate denial. They’re likely posting here because it is a small instance with an Admin who is currently MIA and/or not moderating the instance. For this reason it is imperative that it be defederated to stop these bigots from using it to spread their hate to other instances.

    The flaw in that argument is that not everyone on the instance is a weed. Especially in the case where a new users join. So your not helping the good stuff grow. You are cutting it back along with the weeds.

    Also, did you mean to write that you chose your instance because it’s a home for piracy and anarchism? If so, what you going to do when it gets defederated?

      They’re not being taken out and shot, they’re being defederated.

      If there’s poor little innocent users on there, they can either jump ship to a server that isn’t spewing far-right propaganda in the search of someone damaged enough to swallow it or they can wrestle their beloved server back from fascists and ask to be refederated.

      The amount of people advocating for the worst people the internet has to offer is surreal. If they’re not mask-on, they’re an abusive partners dream.

      Yeah I did. You should check the topic of discussion before joining discussion.

      I would think it follows that if I joined an instance supportive of a certain stance, and some other instance defederates because of that stance, maybe I didn’t agree much with that other instance anyway. It takes a certain kind of person to get upset when they lose the ability to push their views onto others regardless of consent, and I don’t want to be that kind of person
