Does this instance have a stance on right wing disinformation communities? (lemm.ee)

There's a new one suddenly popping up in my feed but obviously the reports are being "resolved" by the mods of that community. They suggested to me that I block their community but I will not because that is how you get a cesspit of an instance. How do we report disinformation communities straight to the admins?

Edit: the admins did remove the community in question so I'm going to take that as the official stance on disinformation communities and also assume that any type of community (right wing, left wing, or other) that are intentionally spreading disinformation will be removed. That makes me feel much better about the situation since this type of thing is pretty much guaranteed to pop up again.

Well, if you wanted to take over left spaces and deny them the ability to have a community of their own so you can more easily kill them off, you should have said so

Implying that I'm a "conservative" just because i disagree isn't a good way to start your point. Second of all, I think it's perfectly reasonable to create a space (as long as they respect that space) where anyone can discuss and formulate and share their own opinions without being persecuted. That goes for any side even conservatives. Its a good way to prevent an us vs. them mentality (which is what you're doing by the way) and allows us to prevent hate and misinformation from spreading from their own circles to us.
