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.
“I’m left leaning but I’m totally fine with bigoted rhetoric being allowed around me.”
In other words you’re a right-leaning centrist.
Defederation is not censorship. The chuds over at remmy can continue to be chuds, and anyone interested in being a chud can go find them there. No reason for Lemmy.world to allow their garbage to spread over here.
Defederation is not censorship.
It literally is…
…
Like that’s the whole point of defederating them…
What do you people think censorship is? 😂 🤣
So a gutless centrist that’s cool with right-wing rhetoric.
So a right-leaning centrist. Like I fucking said.
Keep up.
There is not, nor has there ever been a right of free speech on Lemmy. Lemmy is moderated. If you don’t like the moderation of a particular instance or community, you can start your own. And then you’ll find out that free speech absolutism results in utter chaos.
Being for the idea of free speech, where everyone can speak, is not the same as the right to free speech.
Personally I would prefer everything be available with one account and I could choose what I block. Sometimes I want to see what the other side is saying, and sometimes I want to block certain groups and never see them again. I want to be well informed of what the other side thinks and why they think it, even if I don’t agree with it.
