Recommendation to defederate from exploding-heads (lemmy.one)

That entire instance is infested with a massive amount of right-wing hate, transphobia, homophobia, and ugly political vitriol under the guise of "allowing free speech", rising to the same level or worse than lemmygrad (which we have already defederated from for obvious reasons). Please get this garbage off of the "all" page given that the entire instance actively breaks the rules of lemmy.one and is only providing them with a larger platform. I think a few trolls may have already spilled over.

just take a 20 second scroll through this mess or any of the other communities there: https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected]

Lol that dank memes page is pretty funny.

To quash your worry, when you keep banning things, those people crave it more. Otherwise people will just get bored of the jokes if they're only making trans jokes, then it'll not be upvoted.

Let the system work, and use the block feature if you don't like it.

Alright I don't actually have a clue how this Fediverse works. There's one guy who is so obsessed with trans that his name is "I hate trans", posting weird political stuff.

But I don't know if that was to dank memes or what.

I might not be for banning jokes, but I support banning idiots. Anyone that obsessed is just going to generate 0 interesting content.

That is the point of my OP.

Exploding-heads actively welcomes people of that level of idiocy, and from the little I can see, the majority of that instance's users are that way. We cannot actively block every single one of their users from here because they will simply keep coming on new accounts unless you just cut off the source.
