Is it bots? Are those humans whos mission is to cause chaos? Is the weird behaviour caused by the creation of the concept of lemmy?
Somebody please explain to me wtf is going on.
They answer destructive comments, assuming shit, demanding shit. Are they trolls?
Are they being paid for causing chaos? It’s insane
They were founded after being kicked off reddit, then self isolated from the fediverse for years, creating the echoiest of echo chambers. It’s like those Appalachian families that were so isolated they basically developed their own culture, language and all. They’ve spent too long “struggle sessioning” together and driven out any of the more reasonable users with their purity tests. They think they’re the “true” Lemmy users and only refederated to “spread the word” and antagonize all the “liberals” (read: anyone that’s not 100% with them). The one thing I dislike about my server is that they haven’t defederated from that place.
Very apt description. You forgot the inbreeding part; very much relevant for Hexbear.
One note, “liberal” to them is synonymous with “nazi,” and they do actually, openly, want to kill you for being one (from this comment alone lol, and me too, and everyone else they label liberal). They’re losers who will never succeed in revolution, and most of them won’t do anything beyond cry online, but they should still be considered dangerous and untrustworthy as one of them is liable to pull some dumb shit in the name of their religion and their god Marx (yes it is a religion if they treat it like one.)
I mean… Fuck liberals though
Yup
The fediverse has eyes.
Thank you! You seem like a pre-Reddit-fallout-lemmy-user :)
I specifically chose my instance because it’s not blocking or blocked by too many instances. I like the input from most sides, but will not comment much on hexbear posts I guess. Not worth it.
I ended up moving instances, I was on the same instance as you but the incessant propaganda becomes too much and their users get a free-pass to defend it without consequences so I decided to move to one that blocked them (and the other 2 problematic instances).
Any server federated with them is unusable as far as I’m concerned.
