thelemmy.club's Nazi bar problem: defederation worthy?
The Lemmy Club is currently suffering from "The Nazi Bar" problem. All of their top communities are run by three right-wingers as illustrated below.
The Lemmy Club instance admin doesn't seem to want to ban them, for the reasons mentioned below:
This vote is on whether or not we should defederate from this instance until they address their Nazi Bar problem.
Upvote = for defederation. Downvote = against defederation.
Edit: As others have mentioned, happy to treat this a only a temporary measure until the problem is resolved.
Edit 2: The Lemmy Club admin has said they will implement a rule against right wing communities, and has taken action on some problematic posts and users (see original comments below).
I'm willing to extend the benefit of the doubt to the admin here, as they have responded in good faith:
If you implement those changes then I’d be willing to withdraw the defederation proposal and consider the problem resolved.
You're viewing a single thread.
I don't think it's anyone's business what people want to talk about on the internet, as long as they are doing nothing illegal. I can understand an owner of an instance maybe not wanting everyone who uses their server to have opposite political views to them, but everyone else should mind their own business, or maybe actually talk to those people they disagree with, instead of calling them the N word. If I don't like something enough, I just block it from my own feed and go on about my day.
Are you saying "Nazi" is "the N word"? Cause those are very different things. Also, they are not being called Nazis here, it's a term and they linked to the definition of it in the description:
