On conservatives@hilariouschaos, they shared a Babylon bee meme saying marines were invading a 3rd world country meaning California I pointed out that Californias existence allows their racist red states to exist. Despite me being “upvoted” with citations that were asked for, and them being negative, my posts were deleted. I wasn’t aware that hilariouschaos was as bad as .ml or worse.
They’re also pushing all sorts of other right-wing disinformation.
See, this is the first I’ve heard of all of this. Obviously I recognize them from the weird name, but I had no idea what they represent.
They will get defederated eventually, that’s the beauty of the fediverse. It might take a while, though.
Only if the admins actually decide to do so, so that’s what OP’s asking?
As far as I’m aware hilariouschaos is already quite widely defederated. If they keep their right-wing idiocy up, more defederation will follow. OP directly aksing for it is fine.
Does the existence of an actual right wing instance mean Lemmy is mainstream now? Does this mean I have to go looking for something even more obscure?
Try messaging the admins about it. If you have things archived, that can help too. If they deem the issue is severe enough they might consider defederation. For now, you can block the instance.
