My primary argument is that they post hateful content and covid conspiracies and it is irresponsible to platform this by including it in our federation. Secondly we already got rid of lemmygrad. Thirdly, there’s little to be lost in the defederation given the type of stuff being posted over there. Do as thou wilt

Aye and nays pls

Edit: putting the screencaps I posted below here for clarity

I should probably put a content warning so

CW: homophobia, transphobia, and just being a shithead.

Edit 2: let’s try not to downvote people just saying nay. Unless they are making bad faith arguments we should respect their opinions even if we disagree.

Edit 3: Imma be real with y’all, this has been a real shitshow. We gotta work out some kinda single voting infrastructure because the ayes and Nays isn’t efficient at all.

    I don’t even know who Ashley is because I don’t give a fuck about the us.

    But why don’t you just block their communities and users? It’s a tiny instance of like 20 users.

      Oh I have, I just don’t tolerate bigots. Talk shit, get put in the timeout corner. Frankly I don’t get why you are so fervently defending them. Like you really woke up and were like “I’m gonna go to bat for people who hate gay and Trans people”.

        Because they’re minding their own business and you keep trying to make a dramatic decision for all of us.

        Why don’t you block them?

          Like I said, I did block them. How am I making a decision for all of you? We are literally holding a vote on it.
