The Lemmy Club is currently suffering from “The Nazi Bar” problem. All of their top communities are run by three right-wingers as illustrated below.

The Lemmy Club instance admin doesn’t seem to want to ban them, for the reasons mentioned below:

This vote is on whether or not we should defederate from this instance until they address their Nazi Bar problem.

Upvote = for defederation. Downvote = against defederation.

Edit: As others have mentioned, happy to treat this a only a temporary measure until the problem is resolved.

Edit 2: The Lemmy Club admin has said they will implement a rule against right wing communities, and has taken action on some problematic posts and users (see original comments below).

I’m willing to extend the benefit of the doubt to the admin here, as they have responded in good faith:

If you implement those changes then I’d be willing to withdraw the defederation proposal and consider the problem resolved.

      Que? You can run all you want they will still be around. You gotta bully them or they will only come back like a mint plant. Banning isn’t bullying, it’s a half measure that shields cowards and angers victims which creates more problems than it solves.

        You’re replying to a bot that marks the top-level responses with a flair. You’re marked with a “landlubber” flair used for those responses coming from users from outside the instance.
