(not sure if this is the right community, sorry)
Hi, someone posted this on another server. I'd like to request we defederate with rammy.site and exploding-heads.com as well. I scrolled through some of their posts and comments and it's full of ridiculous anti-left propaganda, for example a post where some liberal Florida family fleeing the state when some child protection laws got passed, implying liberals abuse children and won't live in a state that doesn't allow them to. Just take a look for yourself.
"
Admins of Lemmy.ml please consider defederating from rammy.site it has been taken over by right wing malicious actors from exploding-heads.com and the admin is nowhere to be found.
It is imperative that you take action as soon as possible the users on rammy are using the site to spread their messages to a further audience, we must nip this in the bud. If you don't believe me check the instance for yourself, you'll see it dominated with bigoted right wing posts and spam communities."
Edit: So many commenters think this is about political opinions or disagreement. It's not. If I said "Mixing bleach and ammonia is good for you" I bet some of you would call that a political disagreement.
It sounds like you think it's easy to police who can join an instance. The privacy ramifications of what you're alluding to are troubling.
Sort of, but if you leave the door wide open you get, like, straight-up spambots, and then everyone defederates you. It's pretty hard to make an email address without your real-life identity or something equivalent for the same reason.
Right now, finding SDF in the first place is the main barrier that's assuring a certain sort of person is on here.
So you think grandmas and children and people with mental illness shouldn't be allowed here, but people who call LGBT people slurs and make jokes about hanging them should be?
That's...really not at all how SDF operates.
