If hatred is what you seek, you're on your own.

You know we can see through your whole "ah shucks, I was just wanting a little freedom" shtick, right? No one falls for that shit anymore. You know your opinions are vile, you just want to be able to ensnare vulnerable users into your bigot factory.

Yup. Bye. Fuck off with your "opposing viewpoints," which, I suspect, is just a list of dog whistles and thinly veiled bigotry.

Fucking love this. Gonna just swipe it for later use.

You know I am all about de-platforming bigots! No quarter for hate!

Question, why do we owe them federation? They claim that they are being brigaded by lemmygrad and the hate posts are a false flag. To me, that sounds like they are not able to moderate properly, and are losing control of their instance. This is the exact reason defederation exists, so why not use it? They can always come back when they clean up their instance.

They aren't sending their best, folks.

I checked it. All I see is a person with an account on an instance that allows hateful posts to go on unmoderated. Now, I could surmise that you are a regular Joe that made his account on a bad server on accident. But no. You seem to have no problem sitting at the table with those biggots. Beyond that, you are dead set on defending that horrid instance at every corner. So it's kinda hard to take what you say in good faith.

"I have no argument, so I am going to focus on the person rather than the argument."

No one is censoring anyone. They are free to post whatever toxic shit they want. But we, as an instance, have elected NOT to listen. Censorship would be banning their instance from existing, which IIRC is impossible with federated instances. No, this is just de-platforming. We are turning off the loudspeaker connected to their instance. We don't have to give them a platform. There is no reason to do so. So we defederate.
