That entire instance is infested with a massive amount of right-wing hate, transphobia, homophobia, and ugly political vitriol under the guise of “allowing free speech”, rising to the same level or worse than lemmygrad (which we have already defederated from for obvious reasons). Please get this garbage off of the “all” page given that the entire instance actively breaks the rules of lemmy.one and is only providing them with a larger platform. I think a few trolls may have already spilled over.
just take a 20 second scroll through this mess or any of the other communities there: https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected]

The big advantage of federation is that shit instances can be removed. It’s one of the big selling points. If an instance wants to allow hateful trash they do so at the risk of being cut off.

If they want to see both instances they can create an account on both instances and follow the instances rules.
You can mod however you choose. Other people don’t have to give a shit or listen to it.

Will do. Enjoy your racism and transphobia I guess.
The “free speech even if you don’t like it” shtick is very romantic and reasonable sounding, but it ignores how extremism spreads and escalates.
The far-right have spent a lot of time and money figuring out how to best spread their shitty ideology and have learned what every other cult has – the softest targets are the disillusioned, the deeply mentally ill, the idiots and the kids.
They share stories about how they became radicalised and they all read much the same – they read the memes, dipped a toe into the “alt-light” and then let upvotes and algorithms funnel them into mask off Nazism, cheering on domestic terrorists.
I dont know (nor care) if you’re platforming them because you’re ignorant of how it works or because you know exactly how it works but I won’t be a part of any instance that tolerates scumbags like that.
Your argument may as well be “maybe the children should decide if they want to be groomed and molested, instead of parents and police deciding for them”.

Honestly; running your community that way violates the Lemmy Code of Conduct, which a large number of instances choose to adhere to, as well as the more general template version; the Citizen Code of Conduct.
Therefore you can expect many, many instances to quickly defederate you if you do not take steps to ensure your communities do not spill over or propagate hateful content. I think this instance is not quite as itchy on the defederation button; but even I would support your instance being defederated simply because you evidently choose not to moderate “anything offensive at all”.
It’s only a matter of time before the trolls and edgelords you hope to attract to your community will test the limits and post truly illegal things.

Your response only shows how unconcerned of an admin you are. If you wanted to prove your opponents are reactionaries; you definitely shouldn’t be accusing them of being trolls on alts or calling them out as pathetic or as ideologues. Your response only lends strength to those calling for your instances’ defederation.
These are just extreme examples but… 5 different nazi memes, each with their own uniquely embedded/hidden swastikas is still spamming hate. 5 different unique nazi dogwhistles is still spammed hate. 5 different calls for laws to be passed that don’t in and of themselves call for legalized murder of trans people; but result in the murders of trans people to go unpunished; is in of itself, spammed hate.

Homophobia, transphobia and racism do in fact cause real harm. There’s no need for it.
I don’t care if some uneducated idiot is stuck 30/40 years in the past mentally.
I gain absolutely nothing by hearing it and don’t care what they think.
