Defederating was the right call. The_Donald is being hosted on sh.itjust.works. - Beehaw

The admin of sh.itjust.works has been approached but as of yet has failed to reply to concerned Lemmy users. I’m glad Beehaw admins look out for us by cutting off instances that host communities like this.

Genuinely concerning how anti free speech a lot of lemmy users are. Part of me thinks this site is just as cucked and left wing as reddit.

Removing ourselves from a shitty situation is not anti free speech. They are free to say whatever they want, and I am free to not have to read it. If you want to interact and read it you are free to go there.

Look at how free we all are.

Seriously. People who think "free speech" somehow means "I can lie, slander, and be a dick all I want" with zero consequences are utterly stupid. It's also extremely funny, and concerning, that those same people are claiming that anti-free-speech equates to left wing. They really are that clueless.
Why, just today the notably left-wing Supreme Court upheld speech restrictions on speech encouraging immigration.
