No one has answered you yet, so I will. It was probably banned for these reasons:

Tldr: Exploding heads is a right-wing, Trump worshipping bitcoin bro instance, in addition to being a bastion of bigotry and transphobia.

Of course, you already know this and are probably concern trolling as you've posted similarly in the "agora" voicing your distaste for democracy.

I'm so sorry for your lack of understanding, I'll simplify it for you.

Regarding bots, that non-issue was already addressed by imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works :

This is a valid concern. Our procedure for voting requires that a user comment Aye/Nay. Therefore, anyone is free to view the user profile to assess whether they might be a bot. We will continue to assess whether we can better protect the decision making process from bots, but due to the small size of this forum, it would seem fairly tricky to influence the vote just yet. Rest assured that we won’t be fooled by one guy in his basement running 1,000 alts.

Also, my friend... just because fascism and right-wing rhetoric is unpopular with voters doesn't mean the voting machines are rigged.

If it truly gets under your skin that these bigoted spaces are being defederated by the nicer spaces, feel free to join a more right-wing infested instance. Just understand that the rest of the fediverse is not obliged to listen to their lunacy.

Oh really, I'm making stuff up? Here's a screenshot from that delightful place:

Racism, LGBT paranoia, and Trump worship all in one. Gee, I wonder why all the decent instances are defederating the site.

The answer is obviously that it’s an alt-right shithole that is literally filled with posts linking to gatewaypundit which is one of the trashiest sites on the internet.

I’d say yes, their posts are intentionally inflammatory, divisive, and typically outright falsehoods. This goes against the code of conduct outlined in the mastodon post, and also the rules.

Rule #3 specifically states no posts or comments promoting qanon or disproven conspiracy theories. Many of the rules actually can apply to that shithole site

I wasn't involved in the decisions, but if it wasn't defederated I'd have to block it all from my end. You know why, don't be coy.
