(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 joined this instance because it doesn't block/ defederate. Everyone can pick what they want to see cutting it off is stupid.

[–] Landericus@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 year ago

I too joined this community because it hasn't blocked nor been blocked by any other community on Lemmy.

I joined this instance because I wanted to learn, collaborate, and share tech- and art-related ideas in an environment not toxic like commercial social media that has been filled with bad actors. An environment more akin to the 1990s BBS systems where tech-misfits are free to be without being subjected to hate from those pushing anti-social philosophies.

Is that a policy of this instance?

[–] Artemis@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It's a policy of the community. You really should read sdf.org faq. Best regards.

This is the closest thing I could find that was related, can you send me what you found?:

Any illegal activities which includes, but certainly isn't limited to spamming, portflooding, portscanning, unauthorised connections to remote hosts and any sort of scam can really not be tolerated here. Why? Because there are many here on this system that can suffer from this sort of abuse. If you want to use SDF, you really have to care about this system and the people here. If you don't want to care, then you really shouldn't use this resource.

I did read the FAQ before asking this, I did not take it to mean it's a policy of the server not to defederate.

SDF - The Ethical Social Network What 'Social Network' means to us (a history lesson)

....To the users of the SDF Public Access UNIX System, 'SDF Social' is based on the concepts and principles of the early Social Networks that we have always been a part of and not the highly commercialized, for-profit and ethically questionable Social Networks of the late 1990s and 2000s.

Simply put, SDF has always been about Collaboration, Non-Commercialism, Choice and Privacy.

Choice is very important here. Anyway best of luck in your endeavour whatever it is.

Also in the IRC section there's something about "Common sense" it's a great read. Just saying. Best regards.

[–] Shikadi@lemmy.sdf.org -4 points 1 year ago

I seem to interpret that differently than you. I also read the common sense section, and felt that it supported my position.
