My primary argument is that they post hateful content and covid conspiracies and it is irresponsible to platform this by including it in our federation. Secondly we already got rid of lemmygrad. Thirdly, there’s little to be lost in the defederation given the type of stuff being posted over there. Do as thou wilt
Aye and nays pls
Edit: putting the screencaps I posted below here for clarity
I should probably put a content warning so
CW: homophobia, transphobia, and just being a shithead.
Edit 2: let’s try not to downvote people just saying nay. Unless they are making bad faith arguments we should respect their opinions even if we disagree.
Edit 3: Imma be real with y’all, this has been a real shitshow. We gotta work out some kinda single voting infrastructure because the ayes and Nays isn’t efficient at all.
Could we have some links to examples so everyone can get an informed view of the kind of content you’re talking about? I don’t browse that instance normally.
OK sure, have some examples
Oof that’s an aye from me then. Thank you for the pics!
One of these isn’t from Exploding-Heads, you might want to remove that one example.
There is dissent and disagreement in the only example that actually has comments.
Not very convincing if your best examples are of one or two users who are posting dumb boomer headlines with zero upvotes and zero comments.

The links are from other instances but are replies on our instance, the second one if from a lemmy.world user that is then shown to be a exploding-heads user.
