scrounging the backlogs for marks on my great purge quest and I come across this post. Folks, we haven't federated with a single kbin instance.

This is an instance we have never federated making a defederation post about us. You can search the instances page, we've never linked with a kbin instance. we've never interacted with kbin users. we don't even have to dunk on them for our posting power to overwhelm.
It's endlessly hilarious to me how utterly terrified liberals are of a highly-active explicitly-leftist forum that they're powerless to shut down. They simply don't know how to handle us, and it breaks their brains.
Liberals screaming and whining day and night about Jorge Waroll 1980 and demanding censorship of political opponents in the same breath
We need to SILENCE these AUTHORITARIANS!
Yup and there isn't a long dead right wing space they can ban at the same time to pretend it wasn't just about shutting down any place left of Clinton.
That and sounds like the original creators of the site who had the idea to do reddit but without the pitfalls of capitalism aren't gonna be nearly as sympathetic to them wining about civility as the self professed self imagined post apocolyptic warlord of reddit.
they just assume we must be insincere and trolls because they cannot fathom our views, they never have once stopped and try to consider our perspective that we are actually communists
I’ve seen their brigading on lemmy communities before. They will also serial downvote anything they don’t like.
We are so back...?
We need this in higher res
They will also serial downvote anything they don’t like.
lmao
Reality can be whatever I want.
also bring back downvotes but only for federated servers
I still like the idea I had one time where mods have the ability to allow down votes on a post as a tool of moderation
Brigading is when people I don’t like have a say in something
i see so many people going "ahh hexbear users don't engage in good faith" and then say shit like this directly after, like itd be funny if i didnt see it every other day
Can't leave a comment on .world anymore without them crawling out of the woodworks to harass and insult you no matter the content of your comment. Hexbear may be lucky they defederated you so quickly.
Federation with Hexbear has been a highlight of my summer! They've just never heard anything but liberal propaganda their entire lives and don't take the time to think critically when they see opposing views or evidence that doesn't align with their beliefs.
Kbin doesn't comply as well with ActivityPub standards, and it shows posts and comments from Hexbear, which Kbin users comment on and reply to.
Here's an example of a Kbin user commenting on a Hexbear post. But that kbin.social comment doesn't show up on lemmy.ml, because, after all, Hexbear doesn't federate with kbin.social.
So Kbin users are replying to Hexbear, maybe with the intent of rebutting, and Hexbear users never respond. If I were a lib, I'd think I won an argument or something
I really wish there was a bot or something to grab all the defedded libs responses to stuff here. That could be quality dunk tank material.
AUTOMATE THE SLOP
I'm still trying to figure out why anyone would start a brand new web service project in PHP of all languages in 2021.
The only thing worse than starting a PHP project in 2021 is starting a PHP project any time before 2021. I work in PHP at work and the code we’re writing today is night and day compared to the deranged shit that’s in some of our legacy services. And compared to the JavaScript framework hype train (or maintaining ancient jQuery) I can definitely see why someone would start a greenfield PHP+HTMX project today.
That said, I’ve been starting hobby projects with Go+HTMX for about a month and that’s been pretty fun
perl cgi scripts are just a little too "enterprisey"
this is what the. hex bear wants. we cannot link the Goulash Arch-pelican at them.. 1987
I didn't realize they can see us. That's hilarious.
More proof that our mod policy stays winning
Sounds like we should make some posts making fun of them and see if they can respond
Mamma jammin spectre of hexbear all up in their instances.
How can they see us if we can't see them?
Are they g-g-GHOSTS???
we are being haunted by the specter of some stupid dime-a-dozen libs
Don't worry! We have ghosts of our own to fight back!
Imagine being this much of a fucking loser
Liberalism takes hold in the human mind as a defense mechanism against feeling helpless.
We're definitely triggering to most libs. Probably to a degree far worse than conservatives.
Imagine you have this highly idealized worldview that paints politics as a grand battle between good and evil. You aren't content with the state of things, but shit wouldn't be so bad if more people would just
. You want nothing more than for the right combination of candidates & slogans to appear to allow fixing things.Then some fucking guy comes along and tells you the conditions in your perfect storm political scenario are entirely insufficient at achieving your goals. He says not only that your sole mechanism for exerting influence over the world is worthless, but also achieving your goals is dependent on subverting that mechanism entirely.
That must feel insanely uncomfortable. Virgin minds will ferociously resist accepting the helplessness without an alternative mechanism to provide that hope.
Hence why we must be Russians or crypto fash or something. Conceding any of our points means introducing those feelings of helplessness. It is simply safer for one's ego to believe we're incognito bad guys™ than accept that people who want the same ends don't believe in the holy means.

That'd be like some non-Hogwarts wizard showing up in the final Harry Potter book, telling Harry that his ideology is bullshit and that the magic nazis will never stop returning while Harry's a status quo magic cop, then shoving that liberal nerd aside and actually bringing magic to the people because magic eugenics is also a lie.
That'd be awesome.
Buying their own bullshit.
They think they're better than republicans to the point they don't even really care about their opinions because they recognize they're a bunch of bigots.
They also think they're as "progressive as they come" so therefore they're the best person.
So if there is somebody that actually is more progressive than them either thay aren't a faultless moral paragon, or thenother people are lying.
We see the level of self reflection they're capable of.
We literally can't even downvote it it's just "I mean I could post there but they'd all yell at me about why I'm wrong so I'll just reassure myself I'm right"
Kbin sucks and is full of people who were mostly just scared of the Lemmy devs for being communists
What do you expect from software made by a polish guy and which full name is "Karabin".
Guess what that translates to? Rifle! Yeah of all the names to choose it's a device of death.
aawww that's so cute

Jean Paul Sartre would call them libs and tell them to read Fanon.
"I don't understand the things they say and they make me uncomfortable with my own worldview, so they must all just be evil trolls existing to make my brain hurt, because, as a liberal, I'm the most important person!
holy shit lmao
kbin users are the ones too stupid to realize that "tankie devs" means fuck all for an open source project
Permanently Deleted
I love how they're using trans people in an argument when those trans people are the evil woke tankies they're complaining about
They love trans people in the abstract, as an innocent victim they can "protect" from the republicans. They hate actual, real world messy trans people, who act like human beings instead of idealised victims. Same with any group libs claim to care for really, they only like them when they are victims in need of protection, and hate it when they stand up for themselves.
The ol' TC gave Hexbear the tick of approval? I'm shocked and surprised. I would've thought he'd have never heard of it, but apparently he's your biggest fan! I'm sure this person has a very solid and reliable source for this and certainly didn't just pull it out of their ass.
well, @GayTuckerCarlson@hexbear.net did, which counts
We should federate with them so we can then defederate with them.
Just in time for Federation Friday.
Even within the sanctity of their own homes they live in fear. The vicious sounds of dunks from a bygone era faintly echoing through each room. Kbin users are living a nightmare brought upon them by the merciless brutality of the hexbear posters. No matter where they run to, where they hide to, there is no where that the dunks do not plague their once joyous minds.
Hexbear killed a bajillion posters. It's why Lemmy's active numbers are going down
Black book of hexbearism
The so-called "freedom fighters", defenders of "democracy" and the right to free expression are so frightened that they shit in their pants to see people with an opinion that diverge from hegemony.
Lmao what absolute losers
People can't be this dumb on God. This has to be some boomer cop just running a one click AI from their FBI buddy, right???
We should federate with them so they can defederate with us. It’s only fair.
Fr though, if their mods will actually moderate their inevitable stalking and harassment it would be good to stretch out and add another “major” instance to the commie bloc.
Idk how you warn them about that though. “Hey, otherwise upstanding members of your community are gonna go nuts and start looking for trouble with our users. If you’re willing to deal with that, let’s be friends.”
lol
Me reading the mod log and seeing the results of TomboyShulks great purge:
I had forgotten what real power felt like
Federation drama is killing the experience here. I used to learn and be exposed to way more. This sucks.
There's barely been any "federation drama" for like a week or two, since whenever we defederated with sh.itjust.stinks
we can have a little federation drama, as a treat
Use local
Libs trying to defederate from lemmygrad and hexbear is funny as hell to me.
What? I thought you called us circle jerking tankies? Yet here they are trying to defederate from us lmao to protect their minds from commie corruption, fucking cowards.
why do people think we fully support russia when
is an emoji we haveOne of them is quoting Sartre lmao
I've seen that quote trotted out a lot by them. Just wait until they find out Sartre was a communist who supported solidarity with the Eastern Bloc (though I dislike him for other reasons, of course)
