The whole point of the fediverse is that it's distributed. There's gonna be bigots. But they can be blocked, their instances can ban them, and then they can make their own instances which other instances can then defederate. That's working as designed. In a perfect world, the bigoted instances will be a disconnected graph from the network of other instances.
You don’t think having a disconnected graph consisting of only bigots would lead to amplification and advancement of the bigotry?
Why would it? It seems like it would just be similar to the circlejerk forums they've have for decades, alienated from the mainstream and unable to normalize their ideas and recruit so easily.
