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.

Things will get better if they can't share their message all over the place though.

A good example of that is Maxime Bernier (leader of the PPC,a political party in Canada) who has seen his support disappear after media stopped having the "obligation" to cover him because of election rules. His message lost its reach and now he's doing live feeds in front of a couple hundreds instead of thousands.

Why wait until it becomes an issue instead of taking preventive measures if we've seen it becomes an issue on many platforms?

Oh, you're making this same argument here as well.

This should be easy, I'll just copy-paste my replies since you are also copy-pasting your replies (which is a little weird and sus).

Bernier and the PPC is an entire political party running for an election, not an internet community on a niche website that barely gets 20 different users.
