Unfortunately if people are going to allow hate groups to invade there instance defederate is the only way to deal with it

This is pretty much what defecation is for.

If the admin is really MIA I doubt it'll last long. That being said, this is the system working. Defederate away.

I love that there's a way to deal with shitbrained bigots on lemmy. It sucks entire servers get brigades, but it's fucking awesome that they can be blocked. And unlike with the other site, if a popular sub was taken over, that name was lost. Now you can just remake popularsub@newinstance.fuckthebigots and I have never been happier to be off reddit. :)

Bigotry has no place on a pro sexuality instance. This was the right choice.

Just remember you horny fuckers, they will continue to plead to the point that they should just be ignored and not restricted because of [Insert slippery slope falacy here]

Don’t let smooth brains smooth your brain over too - we live in a beautiful reality full of possibilities and literal infinite possibilities for how to do things. Just because something bad is possible to happen doesn’t mean the idea should be abandoned altogether.

That’s lazy and wastes time which is exactly what trolls want - to be bought more time
