They just pop up with throw away accounts and have to be dealt with, one by one.

So a person to the kill-list of which you are subscribed does that, playing the role of a mod. There may be a few such people with their kill-lists, united by logical OR. You don't have to do anything.

It's just a better solution for what you claim to want.

Just say honestly that you want to ban some people in bunches and feel that it's your bunch doing it and not you alone.

Yep. After the troll has trolled.

It's reactive moderation, which leads to a shit experience for vulnerable people if that's how the majority of moderation needs are met.

Because fediverse accounts are instance based, and instances have their own rules and communities, bigots tend to cluster with other bigots, and defederating those instances means that proactive moderation ensures that most of the hate coming from bigots never needs to be moderated, because it never arrives in the first place.

Anyway, it seems from the rest of your post that you aren't interested in engaging genuinely, so that's that...

No.

It’s reactive moderation, which leads to a shit experience for vulnerable people if that’s how the majority of moderation needs are met.

It can be proactive just as well. You'd subscribe to a whitelist instead of a blacklist. Simple.

Because fediverse accounts are instance based

This doesn't have any mandatory connection to fediverse. Humans build systems.

Anyway, it seems from the rest of your post that you aren’t interested in engaging genuinely, so that’s that…

So finally the only real argument a snowflake has.
