The right wing instances are just defederated from this larger federated group because the people on them were unable to follow the rules of other instances. Repeatedly, they would throw tantrums and create loads of dupe accounts to spam shit when people downvoted their shitty views or their accounts got banned. If they were capable of behaving with civility and following the rules, they’d still be here.
No idea how active that corner of the Lemmyverse is these days, but they have repeatedly chosen to behave in a way that leaves instance administrators with little choice other than defederation.

I don’t think it’s just that. I have seen plenty of people say that no conservative content should be allowed on Lemmy. At all.
Go post a conservative article in c/politics and see what happens. Some of the DM’s you’ll get are actually reportable to the FBI. The anti-conservative streak here is extreme. I’ve reported some of the DM’s I get to the police, and I’m not even conservative, but just because I advocate 3-party voting. People on here can be insane.
I’ve seen plenty of pitchforks go after posters. Even when it’s a neutral article that talks about something positive a conservative politician did or said.
