I mean I guess I do agree with the sentiment that defederating shouldn't be the default response to finding offensive content on another instance.
If you check the highest scoring comment on this post you'll see it's also me, because I also find the content on that instance highly offensive. I'm just wary because Lemmy still feels very new, and the our behaviours now might set a precedent for the future, and I don't want every disagreement to end up with another instance defederated.
And no I don't use the N word regularly, I'm not even from the US
