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.
What are the videos about
The first and third are just conservative BS. But the second and fourth are actual neo-nazi videos, promoting the idea that jews control the narrative.
The video "occupied" claims that the US is controlled by jews, showing how many jews are in a position of power (as if white people aren't either lmao).
Europa: the last battle is an infamous white-supremacist neo-nazi film denying the holocaust, claiming that Karl Marx was part of a centuries-long plan by Jews to spread communism and take over the world. and that Jews control the world's money supply and are conspiring to engineer the downfall of the white "Aryan" race by encouraging immigration and interracial relationships.

I didn't know this from the title and since the posts didn't get any traction or reports I did not look into it at the time.
The moment I had this info the posts were removed and the (outside) user banned. I don't tolerate that shit.
I'm writing a longer comment when I get a moment at a keyboard about my removal of the comm as a whole.
Oof
