We should try to keep this instance as a Free Speech destination, rather than yet another island controlled by the thought police.

Could we please set some rules for defederation? I’d like to suggest these two:

  1. Is it spam?
  2. Is it illegal?

If either is yes, then go ahead and ban it, otherwise allow free discussion and don’t get upset that some people think differently than yourself.

I’m not offering advice? Did you read the rest of my comment? If the majority of users of an instance don’t want a certain kind of content around, then why should they be forced to tolerate it for the sake of a minority of users who want to enage with that content? Why is it not the minorities obligation to seek out that content if they want to engage with it and not the majorities obligation to tolerate it?
