Would you apply that logic to a neonazi white supremacist community on Lemmy.world?
I would indeed say:
Tankie is not the same as communist either. Tankies are genocide denial, authoritarian supporters, who are no better than Nazis.
Okay, so you’re fine with sharing spaces with neonazi white supremacists.
I’m not sharing a space with them when I block them, duh.
No, you’re putting a blanket over them and pretending they’re not there any more.
They would still be active on the site and harming the community at large, you personally would just be blind to it.
Have your instance block individual communities and users then.
Blocking entire big-tent instances is “harming the community at large”.
PS: Have fun on my block list. I’m not discussing any longer with someone who says I’m a neonazi sympathizer.
Okay so how do we report lemmy.ml?
Isn’t defederation the same thing? Users won’t disappear (and they can also create accounts elsewhere…).
Blocked users or communities can still interact on the wider site and with you, you just won’t see them.
Defederated instances are completely barred from doing so.
It’s the difference between plugging your ears when someone else speaks vs locking them out of your house and not letting them get close.
Can you give us the name? I think just spreading FUD isn’t really helping and I also can’t do anything about it without more information.
It’s a hypothetical situation.
