@TruthSandwich They are a right-wing agenda instance... that comes with all the stupidity of any politically aligned instance, including bigotry and shit posting. I have them blocked, and pretty sure they are on our recommended block list as well (the one in my pinned post).. so yea we generally suggest new users block them.
I wouldnt mind defederating but then if someone wanted to see something from that instance for any reason they wouldnt have a means to do so.
