The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don't think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

If nothing else, this should count as a wakeup call to the exploding-heads admins, that if these are just outlier users they should probably be reigned in. If there is pressure to defed now, it will only increase if nothing changes. If the instance won't manage its users, that's precisely why they will get defederated.

yeah, like if anything else support it because actual talk of defederation might get the admins to get their house in order

and if not, then nobody's gonna miss an alt-right haven anyway
