MODERATORS
Ultimately, this is the benefit of federated communities. Whole communities that are connected can straight up democratically quarantine communities that do not moderate these kinds of people off the platform. We don't need to wait for national news stories to take down a jailbait community, or terrorist attacks to happen to take down an alt-right cesspool. It's far easier for users to mitigate damage and put pressure on server admins to deplatform specific sub communities or users, or risk having their server completely defederated.
If you see a user engaging in far right antics, science denialism, or any sort of behavior of the sort, report them, and take note of how mods and admins respond to it.
