(not sure if this is the right community, sorry)
Hi, someone posted this on another server. I’d like to request we defederate with rammy.site and exploding-heads.com as well. I scrolled through some of their posts and comments and it’s full of ridiculous anti-left propaganda, for example a post where some liberal Florida family fleeing the state when some child protection laws got passed, implying liberals abuse children and won’t live in a state that doesn’t allow them to. Just take a look for yourself.
" Admins of Lemmy.ml please consider defederating from rammy.site it has been taken over by right wing malicious actors from exploding-heads.com and the admin is nowhere to be found.
It is imperative that you take action as soon as possible the users on rammy are using the site to spread their messages to a further audience, we must nip this in the bud. If you don’t believe me check the instance for yourself, you’ll see it dominated with bigoted right wing posts and spam communities."
Edit: So many commenters think this is about political opinions or disagreement. It’s not. If I said “Mixing bleach and ammonia is good for you” I bet some of you would call that a political disagreement.
I’m not in favor of defederating over political preference at all. I don’t come to this instance expecting an echo chamber, and an echo chamber is precisely what I do not want.
It’s not political difference, it’s disinformation and propaganda. Just look, even if you’re conservative you should be able to see how messed up it is unless you lack critical thinking skills
lemmygrad.ml is also full of propaganda and nobody seems to be trying to defederate it.
lemmygrad is actually pretty far up the rankings in the defederated-by stats I saw a couple weeks ago 😅
Whether people have a right to exist or have basic human rights is not political preference. And disinformation is in direct conflict with free and open knowledge and learning.
Maybe I should have removed the word “conservative” in my post. Oh wait, I didn’t use the word conservative. This isn’t political, but if you took it to be political, that would imply to me that you consider spreading false information to be part of the conservative platform.
