The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don't think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

The problem being that the majority of them wander out to share the same opinions, not to have their mind changed and that leads to radicalisation when their message reaches people that are sensible to it but that are still on the fence.

ommmgg, you're making my point but you're not even realising it. We should engage with them when they move out of their safe-spaces because then those on the fence see how stupid the alt-righters are.
