If they stayed in their own communities and instances, it would be fine to just block them ad hoc.
But they don't. They go to communities on other instances and make posts, and stir shit in comments.
It's a coordinated thing, they're actively seeking to fuck with everyone else. They aren't even hiding it, you can go to exploding heads and see the shit.
Maybe there should be a personal option to block all users from a particular instance, so when you scroll past a comment from those users is just says "[user blocked by filter]".
Luckily, the apps are providing that to some degree, and I think I saw an add-on for it in one of the lists. It isn't as good as a lemmy based block per instance, but it gets the job done (so far)
So it will be more work for them with no work besides defeating on this end? Okay.
If y'all wanna recreate reddit 2.0 then sure go ahead, censor every word that makes you slightly uncomfortable. Nazis were a huge fan of censorship IIRC
Ah...the same old brain dead argument. Right wingers always hide behind "muh free speech" and the like, but fail to mention how their policies actively attempt to strip the rights of others to be free.
In a space that respects free speech, you fundamentally cannot have a party that wishes to restrict free speech for others, as that defeats the point of free speech. Or rather, the concept of "absolute free speech" is utter nonsense on the face of it, as there will always be restrictions on what is and isn't okay to talk about in any human group.
One could easily argue that putting these people into their own little cesshole communities is giving them free speech in their own shitty space. And of course, if you don't like it you are free to leave for their space or simply shut up and play nice with the other kids in the instances you frequent - thats the beauty of the fediverse.
The free speech argument is especially hilarious for a lot of conservative spaces, including /r/Conservative.
With the majority of threads marked "Conservatives Only" and constant bitching that up votes and down votes were due to brigadding.
Oh and slyly removing comments they don't like for whatever reason.
It's projection all around, as is typical for conservatives.
Choosing to not listen to you is not, repeat not censorship!
You do not have a fundamental right to my eyes and ears. Defederation is collectively ignoring you, not censoring you.
Disingenuous right-wing troll fuck off and eat a bag of dicks.
Lemmy.world defederated EH a while back and now the same people from EH are posting wild on rammy.site, seems like a pretty cut and dry argument for defederation to me, if the admin were here and cleaning these posts and communities up that would be different but he's not and they're still here so best to treat is the same as EH because for all intents and purposes it is the same as EH.
Not yet.
Real smart huh did you ever even consider the fate of all those hammers? what would moderators even use them on? /s geeze dense mofos can't recognize a joke edited to add the sarcasterisk
