Why tolerate the intolerant? They can host whatever they want, but there’s no reason not to exclude them if they intend on bringing harm. Tbh the word “excluded” doesn’t really fit, exclusion would be like someone getting kicked out of a bar, defederating would be more like the bouncer not letting you in.
At the end of the day even if it’s gonna be defederated by every other instance, nobody’s gonna forbid them from starting their own “bar” like the one shown, which means they’re not really excluded from the fediverse.
I don’t think we should tolerate them. This is what we always hear from them when we tell them to fuck off - how many times have we seen “So much for the tolerant left!” Yeah, we are tolerant of pretty much anything that doesn’t harm others - aside from intolerance itself.
I dunno, I just don’t like the idea of defeding ppl just because of their political leanings. I’d rather wait til they start spewing hateful shit and then defed the fuckers.
But I can understand ppl who wanna keep lemmy clean of bigots. I just think we gotta wait til they show their colours then kick them to the curb. That’s me, though, I respect that others don’t feel the same.
