As much as I would probably disagree with their messages and posts, would they not do the same to us if the positions were to be switched?
I personally take a stance closer to "all deserve a connected platform and if you don't like it, block them" as even if I might disagree with them, they still deserve a platform.
No one "deserves" a platform. People should have the right to free speech, but equal volume has never been a guarantee. That's up to your community.
The beauty of the Fediverse is that no one is forcing you to choose/stay on your instance. If they want to talk about that stuff, they have their own instances for it. Lemmy.world is meant to be a comfortable instance for all, and if that means defederating, so be it.
I do not support them nor what they do, but my belief is that every person deserves the freedom to speak their mind even if the message is hateful or I completely disagree with it.
I for one do not support hate messages directed towards anyone besides communists, yet I still believe they should still be able to speak their hate since that is true, uncensored free speech.
Yeah, this is what makes your position in the matter untenable, dangerous, and shortsighted.
No voice of worth on the matter of free speech ever crossed this line because they understand no good comes from creating more harm in the world.
defederation is not censorship
Lol. See US Republicans. Nah, tolerance should not be a mistake we repeat. Let’s go back to the Indiana Jones style of tolerance towards Nazis
The paradox of tolerance disappears when you view tolerance as a social contract rather than a moral absolute.
