It was banned on Reddit because it is racist, hatefull and spread Conspiracies.

In my new community I expect the exclution of racist communities. It is easy now with defederation. Nazis can do whatever they want on their instances, but the instances I want to be part of should not amplify their shit and flush it into our timelines.

The instance-admin of !thedonald@sh.itjust.works did not reply to my message. Big instances seem not to defederate with them.

The new TD may not be a success, the point is not to give Nazis a platform like it is happening now. Fans of TD are racists.

Where are the instances that show face against racism?

edit: to contact the admins: @donut @TheDude @smorks

edit2: @TheDude deleted the community :)

No it's not that. Lots of us never interacted with that sub. Just block them no need to defederate a while instance

If the instance won't kill the sub, the members of the sub will take over that instance.

I'm seeing some people testing the waters of some subs to see what they can get away with.

so because the donald was on reddit, the entire reddit community was taken over?

It had a massive impact on the "culture" of the website and would have kept spreading quite effectively if the admins weren't pressured to quarantine it for PR reasons.
