(not sure if this is the right community, sorry)
Hi, someone posted this on another server. I'd like to request we defederate with rammy.site and exploding-heads.com as well. I scrolled through some of their posts and comments and it's full of ridiculous anti-left propaganda, for example a post where some liberal Florida family fleeing the state when some child protection laws got passed, implying liberals abuse children and won't live in a state that doesn't allow them to. Just take a look for yourself.
"
Admins of Lemmy.ml please consider defederating from rammy.site it has been taken over by right wing malicious actors from exploding-heads.com and the admin is nowhere to be found.
It is imperative that you take action as soon as possible the users on rammy are using the site to spread their messages to a further audience, we must nip this in the bud. If you don't believe me check the instance for yourself, you'll see it dominated with bigoted right wing posts and spam communities."
Edit: So many commenters think this is about political opinions or disagreement. It's not. If I said "Mixing bleach and ammonia is good for you" I bet some of you would call that a political disagreement.
As an EH user, this is news to me. In fact, I hadn't even heard of rammy at all until I stumbled onto this thread here. Sounds like its some kind of spam instance based on the comments here? tried visiting but it seems like most stuff has been deleted and its a ghost town now.
Anyway, out of curiosity I did a search just now on all local EH communities for posts containing
rammy. Got back 4 false positives and 3 posts that were basically just EH users relating to rammy as another non-leftist instance that was getting the auto-defed treatment due to non-conformist political views. I saw one guy with 2 accounts (Gerald something) that was a rammy.site account commenting on EH in a couple of the matched posts. When I had been visiting rammy, I didnt recognize any of the names there as EH users, so kind of wondering if there's anything to back up the claim that there are ties between EH + rammy (moreso than just allegedly having similar beliefs. which is hard to assess to what degree since rammy was hacked)As far as whether or not SDF defeds EH, I don't really care all that much one way or another. Doesn't affect content on EH so I have not skin in this race. While I do agree with the pro-free-speech folks here, even if SDF decided to defed EH, then to my mind, that would simply serve to reinforce our beliefs and prove our points.
