Yes. Piss on all fascists and their toadies.
Yes.
Thank you for listening to the community.
Yes. Please defederate.
Yes, fuck fascists.
No, leave blocking to the user.
EDIT Crazy question. What did they do to get defederated? No really. Did they broke an rule or what. The only reason I know of them is due the post. I have a feeling that's true for 99% of you. So we are defederating from a instance. Majority of users never heard of for what reason. No one can give a good reason to defederate. Outside of reee right-wingers. Is what a good reason to do a instance wide defederation of the instance?
EDIT 2 By the looks of it. The admins are going to do a instance wide defederation of the instance for no good reason given. If they do that to a instance. Can they do same to an user? Ban an user without a good reason given. Just because the mob cries for it. Really makes you think.

yes we should, we don't need that shit spreading onto Lemmy, even though they make good laughing stock
Yes, I would normally be against this due to creating an echo chamber - but as others have stated there are literal not so secret police terrorising citizens.
Yes.

No, I think that decision should be left up to users, we can block an instance if we don't like it.

I haven’t seen the content, but even having a complete troll instance isn’t part of why I’m on here. If I want to see the shenanigans happening over there, I’ll just use another account.
yes.

Yes.
Normally I'm not in favour of defederation, but I stepped over to have a look and it's just propaganda and shit. Nothing thoughtful or inviting real discussion.
Yes
Yes
No, seems like the only reason to defed is because of name?
Absolutely
No, building echo chambers is how we ended up here in the first place
Yes. I don't see a problem with defederating when it it is to get away from zombies looking to spread their infection of stupidity.
Yes
