The instance seems to be mostly right wing trolls. I know defederating is unpopular but I don't think much is to be lost in this case and it can save the mods some headaches.

This is silly. Just block the users/instance yourself.

I personally think defederating shouldn't happen generally. I'd rather there be customizable user filters for either words, subjects, etc.

Like I'm not really into their content (or that of some other instances) but defederating at an instance level is kind of a giant hammer for the few folks who may (for better or worse) be interested in both instances.

No. Nazis need to be blocked by the instance admin. Otherwise, it's time to look for a new instance.
