I think a little clarification is needed. No. I don’t actually think everyone there is insane. I don’t care about the bans so stop trying to use that. HB enthusiasts coming here and trying to call me out achieves nothing besides proving my point
Edit: Feel free to keep trying to brigade me. It’s not going to scare me to take this down
If you’ve heard of Chapo Trap House that’s them. If not, most of those kids/idiots/trolls are the type of terminally online fake leftists that give other leftist a bad image in general. They were so ridiculous Reddit got tired of their shit and banned them a couple years back.
I love that without fail every single person in this thread defending hexbears is from ml with the same pronoun tag format every single hexbear seems to have
Almost like they’re hexbear alts or something
Before I get accused of being a hexbear alt, I only added them after I saw that they were in common use due to hexbear posters showing up in my /all. We did actually start mandating pronoun tags for people participating in /c/transgender -despite the fact that some of the admins are resistant at the instance level- because it seems to work well in the trans spaces on hexbear for fostering a respectful environment.
That’s cool, bud. And I’m doing my best to not criticize the individual person, but there are a few people that make souring the reputation of all on HB
Couldn’t that be said of any and all groups? A few bad posters has soured me on the lemm.ee instance, but would it be logical or fair or me to assume that a few bad experiences reflects an entire group?
Not wrong, but a few bad apples can ruin the whole bunch
Thank god for hexbear and lemmygrad though. Imagine the effort needed to block them all individually if spread over all the other instances.
I was bullied for off Lemmy.One by the hexbear mods who sent hexbear users my way to harass me…
All for (while I’m still a raging communist) not being a pro authoritarian communist.
That’s kind of just socialism then.
Edit. Misread op comment.
Last I checked there was an instance rule preventing the posting of pictures of cheese without a trigger warning.
Sheogorath does not approve.
idk, I’ve seen all the hype around hexbear users being obnoxious around Lemmy (including our own instance debating blocking the instance, followed by several of their members brigading the thread true to form)… but I’ve explored the communities on the instance itself and even subscribed to some of them like mutual aid, gaming etc, and those that I’m watching are actually just normal people doing normal things if more left than some other similar groups. In my experience it isn’t “all” hexbear users, because that would be a dumb generalization.
There are some assholes on that instance to be sure. Show me one that this isn’t true of. I’m glad our instance didn’t block them because I now get to decide for myself. I block communities and/or users if they’re a problem for me. I think that’s a good way.
I’m glad your instance stayed federated because I’ve seen some good takes from lemm.ee users on hexbear threads! 🥰
I blocked hex just days after finding out about lemmy and registering. Some super crazy shit going on there.
They just let the hogs shit on balls then they photograph them and crop them into little emoji, don’t ask me why I’m not an anthropologist
It’s common sense there that Israel must be destroyed and they use pronouns like “comerade/them”.
And most important: They silence everyone who does not agree.
They are sowjet fan boys and try to build such a hierarchical system online.
Just block them…

Most of the Lemmy.World users and mods are actively advocating to vote for Genocide, so i understand that Hexbear is a culture shock.
Because hexbear users would never do that, right? You’re fighting your battle on the wrong battleground.
Heavily scratched liberal gets banned from hexbear for being a debate pervert and trying to start fights, immediately proceeds to call everyone there mentally ill
I’m not banned from there and I agree with OP. Those people need serious help.
Edit: I mean they think Donald Trump is a liberal FFS. Donald Fucking Trump.
I mean they think Donald Trump is a liberal FFS. Donald Fucking Trump
I mean, yes. Donald Trump generally supports the free market, individualist ideology of Liberalism, and is extremely pro Capitalism.
Liberalism doesn’t mean “left wing” or “center left.”
Trump is also a far-right populist, but falls under the umbrella of liberalism.
What the fuck is a debate pervert? Yall are weird af to be following this dude over here and commenting on his posts and having your alt accounts or other weirdo friends upvote lol looks pathetic.
Here’s the thread in question btw. The mods left up OP’s comments that had some semblance of effort.
OP claimed putler was trying to bring back the USSR or some shit here lmao. At least OP deleted it.
They also went on to equate Palestine with Israel and refused to take a pro-Palestinian stance.
eliminating one or the other is agiast self determination, 2 state or die.
Nice to see you going mask-off and thinking Nazi Germany should have remained.
??? when the fuck did i say Jerusalem should’ve been under Germany control? are you insane? from all the denial of soviet genocide?
No, the bit where you said you don’t support the dissolution of fascist states.
??? well the israeli government is terrible yes.
this person needs serious help, and by help i mean
Lol you got banned from hexbear and now are crying about it on lemmy.world?
