Sh.it is turning into a Nazi bar. The alt right trolls saw a weakness and they're now brigading the hell out of this instance. The Dude seems to be trying to fence sit on extremely vitriolic transphobia and refusing to listen to the trans folks who are trying to warn everyone that nothing good comes from engaging with a certain level of asshole. The only productive way forward at this point is to defederate exploding heads but at this point I don't think it's going to happen so I'm just going to grab some popcorn and watch as his great Democratic experiment meets the reality of discourse on the Internet.

Literally where? I've been browsing fairly regularly for at least the last week or so and haven't seen anything even slightly Nazi-ish.
Also the internet is not a physical space, the way the work is not the same.
