The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don't think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

It's always funny as, non American, to read about this naive anti- censorship slogans. Hateful political groups never stay in their places and play nice everywhere else. They brigade and harass every fucking time. There's a reason why every place without moderation turns into a absolute toxic cesspit.

you

you get it

all of this "marketplace of ideas" bullshit predicates on the alt-right and fascists cooperating and playing fair, when they historically have always taken advantage of any chance they're given and then mocking those who wanted to give them a chance

like it's 2023, I'd hoped that we'd have realized why giving the alt-right and fascists a seat at the table never fucking works out for anyone other than the alt-right and fascists
