No need to defederate. I just went and blocked loli and related communities that popped up. I will never see them again.
So, my vote is NAY.

Federation is still young.
It may be easy to individually block communities now but what about in a few months/years when there are potentially 10x more communities across 10x more instances?
How intimidating would it be for a new user to have to go through 100+ communities and block them all individually instead of just blocking 5-10 instances?
How exactly do I do that?
Would you say the same about a gore community?
I would block gore communities on a personal level, but there's no need to do so on a server level unless they're doing something worth defederating for, like any of the following:
- posting cp
- using their server to DoS/DDoS others
- dox-ing people
- allowing their users to harass others AND refusing to punish such behavior
- same as above except for ban evasion
I'd like to have a force-nsfw option for communities that don't enforce proper usage of the NSFW tag, but for now I'd have to block them most likely.
I like watching gore.
Personally, I'm fine with a NSFW tag, and would hope that NSFW instances respect other instances enough to properly tag stuff.
Any instance with a gore community? Nah, screw that noise. Add it to the block list.
Tbh I think an instance not enforcing tagging content as nsfw is probably very strong grounds for blocking imo
