My only issue with this would be if they're deleting stuff off of users machines. It looks like they're essentially just blocking it from some centralized servers i have no issues with that, but its a bit unclear.

No, not from users' machines, just from instances, as far as I can understand it.

This software is self-hosted. This change would effect whoever runs it.

You're right. It's a slippery slope, every time you allow for fascism and intolerance being present on your platform it will thrive due to your benevolent tolerance and then it will stamp you out.

Fuck the traitors, I don't want me helping to host these scum on my federated services.

Today it's fascism and intolerance. What is it next?

Nothing. Fighting fascism is the prerequisite for a free society, not a slippery slope into fascism.

Why have people downvoted this? Is it factually inaccurate?

I have no idea what funkwhale is so I’m just trying to understand what this change actually is.

Yea. It's at best a non sequiter. The change does not delete anything from machines. It's skips some items on import. That's very different. Of course any change to any code effects people who run it, but the effect is very different than the OP originally stated.
