Ok, this is my official petition to defederate from sh.itjust.works
Despite the rules they claim to enforce on their instance, when I see a racist, bigoted, or obnoxiously offensive take here it's pretty much exclusively a user from there.
I made a comment about this today on a thread made by a user from that instance and now I have rather graphic scat porn gifs in my inbox from their users. If you somehow don't know what that means - I am now being sent explicit gifs of people defecating out of their anal orifice because I think their instance is filled with bad faith trolls. They're really doing a lot to dissuade me of that notion.
So as a user on sh.itjust.works I'm guility of being racist/bigot/bad faith troll? just by signing up to a particular instance because my last one fell over? I suggest you take a look at your own instances rules particulary: "Do not engage in name calling, ad hominem attacks, or any other uncivil behaviour. Criticize ideas, never people" and "No threats, bullying or attacks on an individual or group."
As has been mentioned report the user, block them and move on. Imagine if countries reached for nukes at the first sign of disagreement?
