I understand. But IMO this is a huge problem with federated server models: you're making that choice for everyone on the server.
Now keep in mind I don't know what they're posting on rammy lemmy instance. If they're doing some KKK shit over there I probably agree with you. But I'd say if it's just right wing Trumpies I'd say it's wrong to do that over political spectrum.
unless they're breaking standard Internet boilerplate rules I don't think it's a good idea. Free speech is a good thing but it always comes with idiots. It's a package deal. Let that reside at a user level. Remember there are extremists on the left just like there is the right.
Edit: One might consider too whether some of these are political propaganda accounts. This should be looked into especially now that AI is so widely available especially.
I'd say it's not quite KKK level content but it's not very far off, their leader said that he would ban anyone promoting violence but he also said it was because we would use it to vilify right-wingers which doesn't make me think he's against it, just trying to save face. It he weren't he probably would be encouraging violence. So it's right on the edge of being KKK level.
Also by the way the defederation has already happened, lemmy.world is no longer connected to rammy which is why I'm replying from a lemmy.ca account.
