Seriously why? Discuss.online has horrible moderation and open-signups, and Lemm.ee isn’t very much better. If lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works were completely nuked to avoid the moderation headache or risks from two large open servers, why aren’t lemm.ee and discuss.online banned as well?

    The presence of a conservative space is not enough to warrant defederation in my opinion. We don’t want to be an echo chamber. It’s entirely possible to be conservative on some issues and still respect all humans. I would also argue that voting conservative in the US currently would almost certainly invalidate ones respect for self autonomy but that’s a more nuanced discussion and is very US centric

      Is it really? Being “socially conservative” means you’re just a bigot against women and/or minorities. Being “economically conservative” means you’re just a bigot against the poor.

      Idk, what would be an example of a conservative position that does respect all humans?
