I support defedding from them. They're full of reactionaries. The name should've been the first clue.

I don't support pulling the trigger before they do. I still believe in forcing obnoxious instances to defed from us rather than us defedding from them. That or getting their mods/admins to become completely unhinged reactionaries like what happened with Blahaj.

Goat is already an unhinged reactionary

They're very good at coming up with barely plausible excuses and hiding even when the mask sometimes slips. But, I know that their depth of reaction is far deeper than what they're publicly displaying even considering that sinophobic Xi picture or how they purposely stole an identity of a popular leftist(?) user from Mastodon. I peg them as a full-blown /pol/ FS-to-the-JQ style fascist that's very good at hiding their power level. They know they can't go around ranting about ZOG or be openly transphobic, so they quietly prod at pronouns and put some sinophobic crap instead in order to test boundaries.

But the mask always comes off eventually.
