Home of the sh.itjust.works instance.
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.

I was also kinda surprised that sh.itjust.works doesn't block exploding-heads as most instances I'm aware of do. That coupled with the fact that the instance doesn't block them but blocks lemmygrad made me think at first sh.itjust.works was going to be some far-right instance, but from what I've seen it isn't. Though, I don't understand why sh.itjust.works would want to federate with them, considering their content often violates the rules of the instance.
Don't de-federate unless they're allowing the planning of violence, CSAM material, or actual abuse.
As a leftist I see it like this:
Blocking someone is: "I don't want to see this"
De-federating is: "I don't want you to see this"
Blocking someone is: Ignoring a person saying bigoted things.
De-federating is: Jailing a person saying bigoted things.
If you can't handle people saying shit you don't like then you need thicker skin. If you can't engage in a conversation with a person who shares an opinion that you fine distasteful then you need to seek maturity.
If you can't disagree with someone without physically attacking them, then you don't deserve to be part of a community. If you can't exist without abusing another person, then you don't deserve to be part of a community.
And it has begun!

No. Nazis need to be blocked by the instance admin. Otherwise, it's time to look for a new instance.
