In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

MODERATORS
To be clear, it's a horrible post and I by no means think it should exist.
To be honest I don't think you should have rehosted the image here, linking the original submission should be good enough.
I've not heard anything good about exploding heads but this shouldn't be used as proof for what I can only assume is defederation.
Firstly, it's a brand new post, terrible stuff is going to get posted until moderation becomes better.
Secondly, ok it's posted to a hateful and shitty community called ihatetroons which also shouldn't exist, but we don't know how new that community is or if the exploding heads mods are going to get rid of it.
Finally, this post should be removed and a new discussion thread should be generated with the title, 'should we defederate from exploding heads'. That discussion should be used to gather evidence for defederation and request that mods here open a discussion with the exploding heads mod team to find out what their intentions are. Defederation can then be voted on in the weekly vote.
There's very little moderation on exploding-heads. It's one of those explicitly "free speech at any cost" places.
I've made my peace with the fact that it's gotta get a lot worse before there's a consensus on defederation, and it's very likely to happen. They're a nazi bar at the first few steps. Once things get a lot worse with more explicit and extreme brigading and bigotry, then we'll see more user consensus around this.
That's the user, not the community.
I have counted at least six users from there posting this kind of shit, and it's getting fed to this server via all.
