Federation is a two way street, and requires the link to be severed in both directions. The BeeHaw community won't be able to see what's posted by the communities they defederated, but unless those communities also defederated BeeHaw, they'll still be able to see posts and comments from BeeHaw users.
In other words, if BeeHaw users were unhappy with the defederation (and willing to talk about it, of course) we could see them posting about it on kbin for example. I personally haven't seen that though- their community was apparently pretty exclusive before, so it stands to reason they'd be happy with it continuing that way.
No, Beehaw users don't see any content posted by any member of the cutoff instances. These servers might as well not exist, for Beehaw users.
