We’re closing this thread. Everything that could be said has been said. Thank you
Original Post:
Today, we want to inform everyone that we have decided to defederate from https://exploding-heads.com/. We understand that defederating should always be a last resort, and individuals can certainly block communities. However, blocking alone does not prevent potential harm to vulnerable communities.
After carefully reviewing the instance, reported posts, and multiple comments from the community, we have concluded that exploding-heads is not adhering to the Lemmy or Citizen Code of Conduct. Therefore, we cannot, in good faith, continue to federate with an instance that consistently promotes hate, racism, and bullying.
Examples:
https://lemmy.world/post/577526 - Community Moderator Harassment
https://exploding-heads.com/post/92194 - Systemadmin Post
https://exploding-heads.com/post/90780 - Systemadmin Post
https://exploding-heads.com/post/91488 - Systemadmin Post
https://exploding-heads.com/post/93725 - Community Moderator Post
Again, deciding to defederate from an instance is not taken lightly. In the future, we will continue to review instances on a case-by-case bases.
As for our community, please refrain from posting or commenting with hateful words as well. Arguing back and calling people names is not the solution. The best course of action is to report the posts or comments violating our server rules.

For the alt/far-right, everything slightly to the left from the “normal right” is far-left.
Hell, if you ask them, Fox News became communist when they said Joe Biden won the election.
Basically this. As soon as you don’t support trump you are a Marxist. Doesn’t matter that you share 90% of their beliefs. That’s the mark of a cult, which by definition precludes rational thought
I don’t see a single pro trump comment in that thread.
Hey but they think they do, and that’s all that matters to mentally deranged people
You always have to put it into perspective. The reaction when beehaw defederated from this instance was also not met with elation here but most just were dissapointed and I did not read any slurs or colored swearing insults.
Edit: I went over to see what the fuss is about. And the first thing I see is “tranny faggot” and justification for “joe biden is a pedo”. Lmfao really? Nothing lost by defederating from that such a cesspool.
Well, shit, they’re just making me like this instance even more.
