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.

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.

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.
