The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear
and usually follow it up with a ban. It’s absolutely clear what is happening and
it shouldn’t be allowed to continue.
It’s so funny to read this stuff knowing that Hexbear existed for years as a separate community before any of these people knew what lemmy was. It’s such a classic stupid person move to assume that everything came into existence the moment you became aware of it, always reacting as if your personal experience represents the natural status quo.
One of the most vile fuckin things I've seen in that thread so far
One of these things is not like the other dickhead. Imagine lumping in three linked instances of violently omnicidal settler monstrosity AND THEN A PEOPLE FIGHTING AGAINST OMNICIDAL SETTLERS. God fucking Damn Amerika, biblically.
I abandoned an old account because Hexbear bullies followed me around and downvoted everything. Come to think of it, I haven’t posted a single thing since then, and I had a bunch of posts with hundreds of votes.
Lemmyworld can't defed lemmy without severing its relationship with the developers and that would be absolutely stupid and ridiculous to do. All effort from lemmy official development would go towards promoting something else.
If you don't like the developers the problem you have is with lemmy entirely. Use something made by liberals?
Oh yeah... The problem you have is that liberals don't want a decentralised internet. They don't want to challenge the corporations. They hold the ideology that put them in power in the first place.
So either suck it up and try to understand why it is that leftists are your only option for development like this, or piss off.
"But you see, if I post the gigachad xi image in a comment I win the argument and my stalin posting friends give me an upvote"
This is a person who isn't mad lmao. Why are they all such nerds? They treat an internet forum like it's a sacred space for serious business. Then we arrive screaming emotes, covered in pig shit, causing all their nerd monocles to pop out.
@fuckingkangaroos@lemm.ee ...

Spooky Hexbear users down vote all my posts, despite having no ability to down vote, even in their own sub. Woooooooooooooooo...
Amazing. All it took for this whiny, scratched-lib censorship attempt was Armok getting banned from c/World News for a month on .ml. A fuckin' month, not even a perma. Absolute dogmade behavior.
Really didn't expect the reddit nerds to be the one to solve the reddit nerd problem by grouping up in a box fort with a hand written "no communists allowed" sign on the door that literally noone will ever read.
It's so funny because before the lib invasion of july/august lemmy.ml was the biggest instance and guess what? It was and still is mostly populated by libs (although the situation is still better than on .world) i actually signed up here on accident, before even knowing what federation meant, I actually wanted to register on lemmygrad (TBF not many people knew what federation was 2 years ago, lemmy was even more niche and unknown than it is now) it's so funny to see these omega-libs whine about "those communists from lemmy.ml" lmao, before July I fondly remember all the lib trolls that populated /c/worldnews here on the .ml
Edit: take this gem:
Asking for proof of what is an open secret on lemmy seems disingenuous.
I think that instances like hexbear, lemmygrad, and lemmy.ml are very bad advocates for Lemmy and will most likely end up damaging it more than anything else, keeping the “normies” out.
They argue in Bad faith, say the most radical stuff they can think of, and purge anything bad said about totalitarian regimes they idolize. China, Russia, Iran, all considered victims of the evil west…
Uyghur camps > not happening
Tiannamen square > Just some peaceful protests
invasion of Ukraine > NATO forced Russia to do it
If they weren’t such weasels and actually agrued back rather than just ban people like the spineless dimwit twats they are, I’d say the argument that they are easily filtered holds. But given they are just looking to propagate their shilling for Russia, trump (and they definitely do this) etc… fuck em!
So yeah, Hexbear isn’t full of fascists, it’s full of tankies, which are just fascists with a socialist coat of paint. The fact that I’m doing this because I was actioned by a moderator acting as a tankie commissar doesn’t change the validity of my reasoning as to why being federated to Lemmy.ml is a problem.
They're just mad lol.
Right, this is the major issue for me. I am here for the community. This site doesn’t have half the content that Reddit has. We’re here on principle with each other. If you aren’t trying to make some kind of a connection with me as a person, if you get lost in some singular bullshit nonsense comment I wrote at 10AM on an idle Tuesday, if you start to attribute beliefs and opinions to me that I don’t have, if you’re not willing to reconcile and coexist, then I have no interest in engaging with you. Makes it real hard to engage with some folks - especially Hexbear.

The spector of Hexbear haunts dotWorld. Every down vote is a tankie assault. Just don't tell them down votes are disabled here...
I love that comment where their evidence for somebody here supporting Trump is a person complaining about giving Trump "free media attention". Even libs complain about that!
honestly hilarious and why I wish we'd just federate via block-list rather than allow, if only because it'd ensure somehow liberals from shit instances like .world will freak the fuck out about how we're actually Russian propaganda agents using several instances as proxies to promote fascism (Hexbear IS NOT leftists!!! they are trump supporters )
Why is everyone against Hexbear. Anytime I have seen anyone here express support for Putin's murder gulags, it's always prefaced by "critical", which makes it okay.
