Recently it has come to my attention that the instance where my account is located rammy.site has been taken over by right wing bigots from the site exploding-heads they have created many hateful communities and have started posting transphobic content and climate denial. There's also quite a bit of community spam on here.

I very strongly advocate that the admins of this instance defederate from rammy.site as soon as humanly possible to stop the spread of their toxic shit to other instances.

Seems like a huge step like defederation should be reactive instead of proactive. If rammy or any other instance becomes a source of spam or abuse here then it makes sense to defederate. But I don't think it makes sense just because they have some controversial users or communities but are keeping it to themselves. (btw rammy.site appears to be down)

Go look at what they're posting and then come back here.
